This week, the non-profit organization released a new set of ideas and skills, called a framework, for its AP African American Studies course. The latest version comes months after the organization was criticized for discussing course requirements with conservative critics. 

本周，这个非营利组织为其 AP 非裔美国人研究课程发布了一套新的想法和技能，称为框架。 最新版本是在该组织因与保守派批评者讨论课程要求而受到批评几个月后发布的。
