Los Angeles school hosts LGBTQ clubs for kids as young as 4 years old to teach transgender mutilation, 'two-spirit' sexuality
The Los Angeles Unified School District's Office of Human Relations, Equity, and Diversity hosted a 10-week online club for LGBTQ elementary school students, according to a Wednesday report from the Federalist.
The group — dubbed the "Rainbow Club" — promoted "two-spirit" sexuality and taught the intricate details of gender reassignment surgery.
The group hosted online meetings over a period of 10 weeks.
What are the details?
According to the report, the virtual club was geared toward "LGBTQ+ elementary school students, their friends, and their grown-ups."
The outlet reported that the District Office of Human Relations, Equity, and Diversity created a variety of "short, student-facing Push & Play lessons for educators to utilize in their advisory classes."
"Several of these presentations pushed leftwing gender theory, including one that even informed students of the 'two-spirit' Native American sexuality, which has allegedly 'survived centuries of colonial violence and prejudice,'" the outlet added.
One such production featured a host who complained about European colonizers' effects on Native Americans after they "imposed homophobia, rigid binary gender roles, and misogyny" — which the host suggested were a byproduct of the Christian faith.
Another production titled "Queering Culture" discussed drag queen history, and a lesson titled "LGBT Etiquette" taught students to practice introducing themselves with their preferred personal pronouns such as "he/him," "she/her," "they/them," and more. One of the speakers in the video also described the fact that there are only two sexes as the product of a "mob mentality."
The club also provided a handbook of definitions for its students, including various LGBTQ-themed terminology such as "top surgery" — the "surgical removal of healthy breasts" for gender transitions — and "down low," a term that means "men who identify as straight but who secretly have sex with men."
A spokesperson for the Los Angeles Unified School District told the outlet that the point of the club is to help children understand their identities.
"The Rainbow Club is an online meeting for parents and their elementary school-aged children to meet, connect, and talk about topics related to their identities," the spokesperson explained. "The goal of the Rainbow Club is to support families of elementary aged children. The meeting is led by clinicians. Participants talk and do art projects.”
The club is set to reconvene next semester.
Mother says son got vaccinated without her consent — in exchange for pizza — at Barack Obama Global Prep Academy in south LA
Maribel Duarte told KNBC-TV that her 13-year-old son received a COVID-19 vaccine without her consent at the Barack Obama Global Prep Academy in south Los Angeles.
And it was in exchange for pizza, Durate added to the station.
"The lady that gave him the shot and signed the paper told my son, 'Please don't say anything. I don't want to get in trouble,'" the mom also told KNBC.
She even showed the station a vaccine card that shows her son accepted the COVID-19 vaccine at the school.
What do school district officials have to say?
KNBC reported that the Los Angeles Unified School District said student affairs are confidential and wouldn't comment specifically on the matter, but the district noted that its "safe schools to safe steps incentive program" is designed to get steps in place for vaccinated students to receive prizes.
A reporter with the station added that a school administrator told him the mother's claim isn't true and that "more often than not parents will lie about the whole vaccine issue."
LAUSD mandated a Jan. 10 vaccination deadline for all students who are 12 years of age and older — and those who don't get vaccinated by then and don't have a legal exemption will be forced into virtual, online learning, KNBC said.
The district added to the station that as of the Thanksgiving break, 80% of eligible students at Obama Prep have been vaccinated.
Not anti-vax
Duarte told KNBC she's not against the COVID-19 vaccines — in fact, she's been vaccinated herself.
But it's a different story with her son, as Duarte told the station he has "asthma and allergy problems."
"It hurt to know he got a shot without my permission, without [me] knowing and without signing [me] any papers for him to get the shot," she noted to KNBC.
Jennifer Kennedy — an attorney who's closely monitoring two cases against LAUSD over the vaccine mandate — told the station California minors can't consent to vaccination.
"The LAUSD does not have the power to add a vaccine to the California school schedule," Kennedy told KNBC. "You couldn't do it if you were a podunk school district, and you can't do it if you're LAUSD, the second-largest district in the nation. You don't have that legal authority."
Both Kennedy and Duarte are seeking an end to the mandate, the station said.
Anything else?
The Los Angeles school district has made its share of headlines of late, particularly in regard to its stance on vaccines. In fact, last month the LAUSD requirement that students who want to play sports be fully vaccinated went into effect — and forced Crenshaw High School's iconic football team to cut its season short on the eve of the playoffs since it no longer could field enough players.
And in February the district's school board unanimously approved a plan to cut one-third of its school police and divert millions in funding toward hiring social workers, restorative justice advisers, and "climate coaches."
