The Prager U video, which I somehow thought was connected to Hillsdale also. In any case, the video is obviously somewhat simplistic, but in fact Douglass did disagree with Garrison about compromise and did view the Constitution, properly interpreted, as a "glorious liberty document." As I said, nuanced. Love and anger, both. I will take the Prager U simplification over the much worse and angry simplification of the 1619 Project, which hardly even mentions Douglass.
I would strongly object to children being exposed to the biased Prager U video. It strengthens my point about the Florida curriculum will be worthless. Hopefully parents and teachers will take DeSantis to court.
I think you are mistaken in saying "1619 is NOT being taught." According to the Wikipedia page on the 1619 Project, the Project included a school curriculum that apparently came out in 2019. The Columbia Journalism Review described this part of the overall project as "including lesson plans, guides and activities to help teachers bring this (1619 Project) material into their classrooms." I have seen various reports that in some jurisdictions such as Illinois and California, the 1619 Project or very similar materials are already or soon will be used in most or all public schools. Moreover, I think it very likely that the 1619 Project is already being used by individual teachers in some public and private schools in many states.
I am so impressed with the complexity of your response compared to the Hillsdale video.
Which Hillsdale video?

Edit to add:
1619 is NOT being taught. Strawman argument.

Sigh
Name the school or school system in Florida using the 1619 Project as a guide.

You object to 1619, but find Prager U acceptable?
