As was doubtless intended by the bill’s proponents, the chilling effects of the bill extend well beyond 3rd grade. I have previously tweeted about a student at Winter Park High School who was disciplined for a school history report on the Stonewall Riots. metroweekly.com/2022/04/flor…

They never got over Brown v Board. If you know how that started you understand why they are targeting students.

I just realized that it's April 23. That means it's the anniversary of the Farmville, Virginia Motion High School student strike. What? You don't know about that? Well, in 1951, Barbara Johns was fed up with the deplorable conditions in her segregated school . . .

Genuine thanks for sharing this. That fighting against this oppression is important to them is reassuring to me, I have high hopes for their generation.

The fact that you call it a "don't say gay" bill when that's a lie is all I need to know. Sorry. You lost. Groomers lost. Parents won.
