A coalition of local educators and LGBTQ+ organizations in California are unveiling 10 new LGBTQ+ history lessons for the states K-12 public school classrooms under the theme Pride, Resistance, Joy: Teaching Intersectional LGBTQ+ Stories of California and Beyond. The curriculum was created by local K-12 teachers in collaboration with the LGBTQ+ history organization One Institute, the ONE Archives at the USC Libraries, the UCLA History-Geography Project, and the queer student support program Out for Safe Schools at the Los Angeles LGBT Center. The ongoing collaborative partnership has been developing LGBTQ+ history curriculum for state schools since 2018. Related Governor signs bill to stop schools from outing LGBTQ+ students to their parents Republicans are angry that the bill tramples on so-called parents rights. While the lessons will be unveiled on Thursday, theyll align with the states 2011 Fair, Accurate, Inclusive, and Respectful (FAIR) Education Act, a law that requires public schools to include the historical contributions of LGBTQ+ Americans inhistorylessons and classroom textbooks.

Subscribe to our Newsletter today Lesson plan materials provided by the aforementioned organizations show that one kindergarten lesson will explore, What are some ways we can show how to be a strong community member? An 8th-grade U.S. History lesson plan will ask, To what extent did historical figures agree or disagree with all men are created equal during their activism? A 9th-grade Ethnic Studies lesson plan will ask, What role did community organizations play in supporting queer AAPI [Asian-American and Pacific Islander] people in the 1980s and 1990s? A 12th-grade U.S. Government lesson plan will ask, How did LGBTQ+ immigrants push for more inclusive immigration policies in the 1970s and 1980s?The currently available lesson plans for high schoolers include ones about queer activist and poet Audre Lorde, AIDS & HIV activism, gay racial civil rights organizer Bayard Rustin, queerness in 1920s and 1930s Hollywood, trailblazing San Francisco politcian Harvey Milk, the removal of homosexuality as a classified mental disorder, transgender-inclusive German sexologist Magnus Hirschfeld, how urbanization affected alternative family structures, and other topics. In a statement, Trevor Ladner, Director of Education Programs at One Institute said, The FAIR Education Act affirms students right to study the pride, resistance, and joy of LGBTQ+ history and culture. These lesson plans equip K-12 teachers with standards-aligned resources and effective practices to teach intersectional LGBTQ+ histories, Peta Lindsay, Associate Director of the UCLA History-Geography Project said, LGBTQ+ students, teachers, and families are essential members of our communities, and LGBTQ+ history is an essential part of our shared history. Every student deserves access to empowering LGBTQ+ history in schools.The development of LGBTQ+ inclusive-curriculum under Californias FAIR ActThe landmark legislation, the first of its kind in the nation, was introduced by then-State Sen.Mark Leno(D), and signed into law by then-Gov.Jerry Brown (D).Historian Don Romesburg, the lead scholar who worked with advocacy organizations to pass the act, served as director of a committee to develop the acts original curriculum framework.Romesburg and his committee of 20 scholars all who specialize in different areas of LGBTQ+, U.S. and world history went line-by-line through the states curriculum and suggestedways to incorporate LGBTQ+ materialbased on current research and age-appropriateness. Their framework didnt just include famous LGBT historical figures but also encouraged students to think critically about family structures, gender roles, and institutional oppressions throughout time. The current framework has students in the 2nd grade social studies classes learning how LGBTQ+ families exist alongside families with adoptive parents, step-parents, and parents who are immigrants. In 4th-grade California history, students learn about famous 19th-century stagecoach driver Charley Parkhurst, a western pioneer who lived and dressed as a man but was discovered after death to have been assigned afemale gender at birthThis is great time for critical thinking, Romesburg said, to get people to think about birth-assigned gender and why someone would dress like [a man] in the Gold Rush era of the West.In 5th grade Early American history classes, some lessons emphasize how two-spirit shamans and multi-parent families in indigenous American tribes changed as a result of colonization. In 8th grade, students of 19th-century U.S. history discuss how Black peopleand women forged their own families in response to slavery and industrialization. Social science electives for 9th graders include mentions of famous lesbian and bisexual women in, and ethnic studies classes mention famous queer people of color. Modern world history classes for 10th graders cover the persecution of gay people during the Holocaust.The 11th grade modern U.S. history classes look at the evolution of modern LGBTQ+ communities throughout history (like during the Harlem Renaissance, WWII, and the sexual liberation movement of the 1970s).They also coverthe persecution of sexual and gender minorities by the medical community, the U.S. military, the U.S. government, the religious right, and throughoutthe AIDS epidemic and current LGBTQ+ court cases.Over the years, the state train educators about how to incorporate LGBTQ+ material into their classes and to advocate for textbook and educational material providers to create LGBTQ+-inclusivematerials. Californiais a huge text book market and has a huge influence on the rest of the countrys textbook materials, so textbook producershave a strong financial incentive to create textbooksin line with Californias new standards, standards that will likely affect thetextbooks of smaller states around the U.S.. As for claims of sexual brainwashing, Romesburg said, Its a contemporaryrealitythattheres an modern LGBT rights movement and that LGBT people exist. You dont have to take a political view on whether you approve of that to know that it has a history and that history is something that all students should have access to.He added, One of the things thats most exciting is there are many educators in Californiathat have been eager to include LGBT content in their teaching, but they havent know how. And this gives them a roadmap in a substantial way to do this in elementary, middle and high school. Its utterly transformativeand truly history-making.Subscribe to theLGBTQ Nation newsletterand be the first to know about the latest headlines shaping LGBTQ+ communities worldwide.

Additionally, at least two Supreme Court justices have called for overturning the landmark ruling, and several red state legislatures have passed resolutions calling on the court to do the same.But those efforts took a back seat to the tears, hugs, and applause at the celebration this weekend. Love was in the air. Avery Belyeu, CEO of the Montrose Center, attended the event and described it as an affirmation of both love and the power of activism.The thing I would say is to remind each other that weve always had to fight for our rights, she said, as families and couples toasted one another.

It's insane, right?!M3GAN garnered a passionate cult fanbase when the first film came out just over two years ago.Since then, the killer doll has become a pop culture phenomenon and gay icon for her sickening dance moves, creepy singing voice, and, of course, deadly attacks on anyone who stands in her way.With M3GAN 2.0 coming out this week, fans everywhere are rejoicing as they get to see this psychotic robot unleash her wrath in a sequel that is sure to horrify and delight audiences around the world.Jenna Davis voices the titular role and has thoroughly enjoyed seeing the LGBTQ+ community warmly embrace M3GAN into the canon of fan-favorite evil villains."To even have the word 'icon' thrown out is the biggest honor as an actress. Playing a new villain was definitely a bit scary. Villains can either be well-liked or not, and luckily, M3GAN really was, and I feel very honored to bring her back," Davis tells PRIDE. See on Instagram In M3GAN 2.0, M3GAN'S software is stolen by a defense contractor to create another military robot named AMELIA, who becomes too powerful and hostile to the general population.As a result, M3GAN is brought back to life to stop AMELIA and prove that she's no longer the killer machine she used to be."She's bringing a lot of heat, and she's even sassier in this film than she was in the first one. I have a feeling there's going to be some iconic lines that come out of this second film. She doesn't care what other people think! She's a certified diva, for sure."With M3GAN becoming a pop culture staple in a short amount of time, many horror fans have compared her to Chucky from the popular Child's Play series over the years."I would love to work on this until I'm in my 50s or 60s. That would be a dream come true. I have a really good feeling people will love the second film. They did such a fantastic job with the script, and I think it took the storyline to another level."As if her voice work as M3GAN weren't exciting enough, Davis is also dropping her debut country album on the same day as the film's release."We decided to shake some things up! It's a very coming-of-age project for me. There's a lot of different elements I just poured into this body of work. I'm excited for people to see a different side of me. I don't only sing like M3GAN!

A so-called "Hetero Awesome Fest" held in Boise, Idaho over the weekend ended in disaster as its mere dozens of attendees witnessed its organizer fight a musician while a local podcast host bragged about the city's lack of Black residents. Mark Fitzpatrick, owner of the Old State Saloon, organized the event as a "celebration of traditional gender norms and heterosexual awesomeness" and an "alternative" to LGBTQ+ Pride Month. The festival, held on June 20 and 21 directly across from the Idaho State Capitol in Cecil D. Andrus Park, aint your limp-wristed woke fest; its a full-on celebration of family values with guts.And LGBTQ+ Pride it was not people actually go to Pride events. Still, the festival managed to draw attention over the past several days for all the wrong reasons. Here's everything that happened.Just four dozen people attendedOnly about 30 to 50 people attended "Hetero Awesome Fest" across the two days, according to estimates by local station KTVB. This is roughly the size of the self-proclaimed "World's Smallest Pride Parade" in 2023, which was held by a neighborhood of around 40 people. Similar "straight pride events" have a long history of attracting laughably low turnout. One event in California in 2019 turned out just 20 attendees in comparison to 200 pro-LGBTQ+ protestors, and an event the same year in Texas organized by the people who hosted Boston's failed straight pride parade attracted just three people, one of whom later said she did not know what the event was and rebuked it. So Paulo Gay Pride in Brazil is considered the largest Pride celebration in the world, attracting about three to five million attendees every year. The largest celebrations in North America are Toronto Pride and New York City Pride, which each attract millions annually. Pro-LGBTQ+ musician wrestled off stage@rowanastraa pro-LGBTQ musician managed to play the stage at hetero awesome festival in downtown Boise, ID. The organizers were not happy, pulled the mic, and kicked the musician out. This person is a hero. #lgbtq #boise #idaho #protest #musicA large swath of the few attendees at "Hetero Awesome Fest" were musician Daniel Hamrick and a group of his friends. Hamrick was invited onstage to perform at one point, but before beginning, he took off an overshirt to reveal a jacket with rainbow and pink triangle patches, and a crop top reading Keep Canyon County Queer." He then played his song titled "Boy" about a young transgender boy.They put him in dresses to keep him in line / They say Its a phase and Its all in his mind,'" Hamrick sang. "They put him in ballet, he wants to play ball / What matters to him doesnt matter at all."They grew out his hair but he wanted it short / Put him in a skirt, now hes all out of shorts / Its not just aesthetics, its down to his heart / Theyre breaking his will and hes breaking apart," the song continued. This kid has got no chance / To stop the woke advance, let teacher take a glance: Whats in your underpants? / Elephants taking pride in tr*nny suicide / When all the books are fried, well see how many die!As Hamrick sang the line Afraid of the news on his parents TV, his microphone was cut, and Fitzpatrick climbed on to the stage to forcibly remove him. Another man in attendance, who mistook Fitzpatrick as a protestor attempting to disrupt the festival, then jumped onto the stage to confront him. Security officers intervened, and escorted Hamrick and his friends from the event. "He sang a song with lyrics that go against our values," Fitzpatrick told KTVB. "This is yet another example of lies and deceptions from the Pride community. Thats what they are: liars and deceivers. They do it to victimize children. Its pathetic and evil."'There aren't any Black people here' (@) While "Hetero Awesome Fest" was being criticized for its anti-LGBTQ+ mission, clips began circulating online of podcaster at the event who made racist remarks about the small number of Black residents in the area."There's still very good bars around, great food, there's the Basque district, again, it's clean, there aren't any Black people here," said Dave Reilly, co-host of self-described "premier American Nationalist talk show" The Backlash.Fitzpatrick has received sharp condemnation for allowing Reilly to set up at the event. He told Idaho News 6 that Reilly asked to interview the speakers at the event, which he allowed without doing further research. He said that he does not share Reilly's views, stating that "as long as they recognize that they're a sinner and they know that Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins ... doesn't matter what color you are.""You'll never hear that from me. I won't say that, nor do I think it was wise or a kind thing for him to say," Fitzpatrick said. "[Reilly] has to be responsible for what he says, so if people are throwing out allegations of racism to actually ascribe them to me is completely ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous."Reilly has doubled down on his statement, telling the outlet: "Diversity is a weakness, not a strength. The LGBTQIA+ movement is Satanic. Straight white people are welcome and wanted in Idaho. Christ is King."This is not the first time a "straight pride" event has been linked to White Nationalism the organizer of the 2019 festival in California admitted that the people behind the event are a "totally peaceful racist group."
