It seems as though every day, another good argument comes along for American parents to find alternatives to public education. As early as preschool and kindergarten, children are being indoctrinated into left-wing thought and ideology. Pride month, of course, comes with an extra dose of brainwashing. The education industry does not care what parents or school districts think is best for their students. And if you believe that the education industry — that is, teachers, teachers' unions, and even textbook publishers — are still trying to hide what their agenda is for American students, you would be wrong. 

Scholastic was a major pusher of Common Core.
Now this.
Clearly this company does not have the best interests of children as their focus.
School systems should nullify contracts with companies that promote the sexualization of children. NO taxpayer money to them! @SuptWoods https://t.co/nXkuxEKmLd

Scholastic, one of the largest publishers of textbooks in the U.S. announced on Tuesday the "Read with Pride" campaign. The campaign is designed to provide teachers with a list of "LGBTQIA+ stories for kids and teens." But that's not all. Parents need to be ready for a fight as the publisher also said that the company would utilize all its resources to fight parents and local school districts who want to determine what is best for their students.

Scholastic states the reason for the push: They claim that 10 percent of American teens identify as LGBTQ. They also claim that roughly 52 percent of all Americans who identify as LGBTQ are "people of color," and of those, a quarter of children and teens “identify outside of the gender binary.” 

So, what might the "Pride Guide" include? Well, for starters, every young skull full of mush to be indoctrinated must know the proper terms. The guide lists a glossary of terms, such as "allocishet." I can't pronounce it, but the meaning describes someone who is a combination of "‘allosexual/alloromantic,’ ‘cisgender,’ and ‘heterosexual/heteroromantic’ that is used as shorthand to describe people whose gender and sexuality are privileged by society." The definitions of these terms are a leftist word salad of physical, emotional, and sexual attraction to another person. Also, because we cannot leave out the fact that America is a colonialist oppressor, Native American/First Nations/Indigenous people get their own culturally appropriate term, "Two-Spirit," someone who does not identify with the colonial oppressor terms of male and female. Is your head spinning yet?

To help "guide" teachers, a quick perusal of the Scholastic website list has a section devoted to LGBTQ literature. The selection should make every parent grab their kid and run. The list starts with several books geared toward kindergarten through third grade, third grade through seventh grade, and fourth grade through seventh grade. But it gets even more disturbing. Scroll down the list, and you will find novels geared toward ages nine and up and seven and up described as "graphic." One can only imagine what is contained in books deemed graphic aimed at seven and nine-year-olds.

“Read With Pride”: Scholastic Book Publisher Offers “Pride Guide” to Teachers During LGBT Campaign

This obsession with sexualizing children is indicative of a sick and depraved society. It must stop.

The teachers' guide also addresses the decision by many parents and school districts to remove these books, as well as other generally sexually explicit literature, from school libraries and offers help to anyone who wants the books, saying:

“Unfortunately, many communities are experiencing significant pushback to supporting the rights and needs of queer youth and the inclusion of queer literature in classrooms and libraries. If you or anyone you know needs them, make sure to utilize the links to mental health and censorship hotlines included in this guide.”

Ellie Berger is the president of Scholastic Publishing. She makes no bones about the company's motives and agenda, saying:

“We will find an alternate way to get a greater range of books into the hands of children. We remain committed to the books in this collection and support their sale throughout our distribution channels."

But perhaps the most alarming sentences in the guide justify the company's obvious agenda and its philosophy of teaching, stating that "the very act of teaching is itself political and is meant to impress a certain ideology on students." Are you kidding me? Who are you people to tell parents that you know what is better for their child than they do? But they weren't done, here's the why:

“Books and literature are never neutral. By engaging with queer literature for children and young adults, you are disrupting the status quo that implies being cisgender, heterosexual, and allosexual are the default. You are showing children an expanded way of thinking and being that validates all children and people.”

They do not have to hide it any longer. 

Hey @Scholastic I really don't appreciate shopping with my 1st grader for books, and this is the landing page.
It's not a good look.@againstgrmrs @libsoftiktok
