Stripped bare: 'Gay' school plot unveiled

On the heels of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's signature on S.B. 777, which opponents describe as a homosexual indoctrination plan for education districts, a pro-homosexual lobbying organization in California has launched its campaign to infuse a "gay" influence into public school curricula.

The Gay Straight Alliance recently forwarded an e-mail to its California chapters with information on how to make sure homosexuality is taught in the state's schools, and warned that having students and parents simply "tolerate" homosexuality simply is not enough.

"In many schools, learning about LGBTQ issues takes the form of very necessary tolerance education where students are educated about the importance of not discriminating against each other," according to GSA documents. "Tolerance education is an important first step, but we need to push further.

"Infuse LGBTQ curriculum into history, social science, and literature classes," is the organization's plan.

Karen England, a spokeswoman for Capital Resource Institute who publicized the GSA campaign and is a primary organizer behind the Save Our Kids plan to put the issue before voters and ask them to reject it, said this is exactly what she expected of those who wish to promote the homosexual lifestyle.

"The homosexual lobby is active and ambitious. They already have GSA units in many California schools that will oversee the implementation of SB 777," England said. "As evidenced in the GSA e-mail, their agenda is inclusion in school instruction and activities, regardless of their public assertions of 'streamlining' anti-discrimination policies in the law."

She said the GSA "guide" to be used tells students "that insisting on LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer) history in school instruction 'helps to create schools where students feel safer and more supported.'"

California SB 777
e-mail from Capitol Resource Institute ^ | 12/11/2007 | kengland@capitolresource.org

While the SB 777 referendum campaign continues to surge forward with increasing strength, the homosexual lobby is busy preparing schools for the new law's implementation.

Last week the Gay Straight Alliance, a homosexual rights group that promotes their agenda in schools, sent out an e-mail instructing their California chapters on how to integrate homosexual history into curriculum. In October-the same month that SB 777 was signed into law by Governor Schwarzenegger-each GSA school unit received a "campaign guide" entitled "Sharing Our Stories: The Fight for LGBTQ-Inclusive Curriculum". This guide was designed to assist students in lobbying their peers and school district to include homosexual, transgender, transsexual and bisexual figures in school textbooks.

In the guide students are told that insisting on LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer) history in school instruction "helps to create schools where students feel safer and more supported." The GSA e-mail cites the California Safe Schools Coalition's assertion that students feel safer when LGBTQ history was included in their classroom instruction. Interestingly, the California Safe Schools Coalition was established in 2000 by AB 537 (Kuehl), the anti-discrimination law that purportedly ended harassment and discrimination of homosexual students.

When AB 537 was passed, the law made clear that it would not apply to school instruction or school activities. Obviously SB 777 was written to now include instruction and activities. These groups are already planning the curriculum before the law even takes effect.

In fact, curriculum inclusion is not sufficient. According to GSA, "tolerance education is an important first step, but we need to push further." Their goal is to "Infuse LGBTQ curriculum into history, social science, and literature classes."

Utilizing the slogan "Let's Set the Record Straight: History Isn't", students are given several action steps to take in accomplishing their "curriculum campaign" goal. These include monitoring classroom instruction to see if LGBTQ individuals are discussed or "made invisible"; taking over class to present LGBTQ history lessons; contacting textbook companies directly about including LGBTQ history; and lobbying school districts to change curriculum.

Students are also encouraged to promote LGBTQ history month in October. Keep in mind that schools are already participating in November's Transgender Day of Remembrance and April's Gay Day of Silence. To promote these "awareness" campaigns, GSA suggests reading "queer poets" poetry over the school intercom during homeroom and lunch. They also recommend organizing a school-wide assembly to hear about LGBTQ history.

The homosexual lobby is active and ambitious. They already have GSA units in many California schools that will oversee the implementation of SB 777.

As evidenced in the GSA e-mail, their agenda is inclusion in school instruction and activities, regardless of their public assertions of "streamlining" anti-discrimination policies in the law.

The SB 777 referendum is our opportunity to take a stand against the indoctrination of innocent school children.

No child should be discriminated against or harassed. But incorporating discussions of and instruction about controversial lifestyles in the classroom does not accomplish this goal. Instead, it undermines parental authority over children's moral upbringing.

We recognize the true agenda of such radical groups and implore you to join us in the campaign to Save Our Kids.
