Now it’s school music classes that are in the crosshairs of the LGBT movement.
The Massachusetts Music Educators Association has published an article warning school music teachers across the state that they must provide “LGBTQ-friendly” classrooms or else risk having a “hostile” climate that impairs students’ academic success and mental health.
The article, published in the Spring 2016 edition of the Massachusetts Music Educators Journal, lays out a list of radical steps that music teachers should take in order to provide a “safe learning environment” for students. These include:
Incorporate LGBT composers and musicians into the curriculum
Change “heterosexual” lyrics in songs to be “queer” – and explain to students that not everyone is heterosexual.
Use gender-neutral pronouns, such as “ze” instead of “he” or “she”.
Do not use terms such as “boys” and “girls”, or have events where males and females dress or act differently.
Share a list of LGBTQ-friendly resources, organizations, and websites with students. If possible, start a “gay-straight alliance” (GSA) club.
Refer students to LGBTQ-friendly guidance counselors.
Distribute material from the national LGBT organizations such as GLSEN. Become a proactive LGBTQ ally.
Provide homosexual and transgender role models for students. (And come out to your students if you’re L, G, B, T, or Q.)
Display LGBTQ “safe space” stickers in the classroom.
The article stresses that these methods are not intended just for LGBTQ students, but for everybody. It says that “research shows that all students benefit” and “these actions will make everyone feel more safe and secure, regardless of their sexual and gender identities.”
What “authority” does the author cite for all this? None other than the infamous Alfred Kinsey, who is often referenced by the homosexual movement and the sex-ed industry, though Kinsey’s work has been thoroughly debunked by researchers such as Dr. Judith Reisman. The author tells music teachers:
Though heterosexuality is most common, human sexuality varies greatly. In 1948, Alfred Kinsey established the notion of sexuality as a continuum based on his pioneering research. More recently, there are other theories and research that suggest human sexuality is fluid and can change over a person’s life.
The article explains that there are more “genders” than just male and female:
Though sexuality and gender are related, they are separate concepts. As with sexuality, there is a similarly pervasive belief that gender is a binary concept, meaning that a person is either male or female. Like sexual identity, gender identity can be fluid. Gender identity refers to one’s own internal sense of who one is.
The article goes on to define some of the various “genders” as: transgender, genderqueer, gender diverse, cross-dresser, cisgender, and transsexual.
Get it? And this is for music class!
Years ago when national homosexual organizations such as GLSEN began pushing their “School Climate Surveys” in schools across the country, MassResistance and others began sounding the alarm that the results would be used to push more pervasive LGBT programs into the schools. However, these surveys are patently unscientific, and specifically designed to give the results the LGBT movement wants.
Sure enough, this article opens by citing the “alarming findings” of the National School Climate Survey about LGBT youth in American schools. It describes a “hostile climate” and general unsafe environment that permeates schools across America and causes terrible health problems as well as “lower educational outcomes and poorer psychological wellbeing.”
The biggest problem, the author says, is that people believe that homosexuality is not normal.
Harassment and victimization of LGBT youth are due in large part to learned beliefs about sexuality and gender. Throughout our culture, there is the pervasive assumption that everyone is heterosexual. In essence, one learns to assume that all females are attracted to males and all males are attracted to females, and that anything that does not follow accordingly is considered abnormal. This is called heteronormativity.
The remedy to this, the author says:
The findings of the report suggest that administrators, teachers, parents, community members, and students must take an active role to help create inclusive and affirming classrooms and schools.
This indoctrination is what the LGBT movement has planned for your children and grandchildren. What you are reading here is not simply conjecture, or what is “coming up.” In many parts of the K-12 curriculum in schools across the country, it is already there. (And it’s no longer just in the “sex-ed” curriculum.)
The author, a professor of music education at U. Mass. Amherst, has written elsewhere of the plan to engage all new music teachers in this queer-theory approach to music instruction in their teacher-education programs.
Even more frightening are the numbers of teachers and school administrators that are already enthusiastically pushing this viewpoint on kids. We have seen that first hand. They believe they are part of a new civil rights movement. We have a generation of very radical people running our schools.
Their goal is to homosexualize every part of school curricula, and eventually every part of public life. As we’ve pointed out for years, much of it is being funded by major US corporations that all of us patronize.
Most disturbing of all is how few people even know this is happening. We are here to remedy that – and help you confront it.
The homosexual agenda will never harm or hurt Christians.
Were you a g-d idiot who fell for this lie?
I’d much rather harry perverts from polite society.
These deviants don’t want equal rights. They want special rights.
I am thinking He wants to see what we do about this onslaught, first.
Pushing “flute” players?
Change all instruments from those played to another. Ie., trombonists will become violinists, and the like throughout.
Sopranos will become basses, and tenors sopranos. Altos will be eliminated to end any possible gender confusion.
And harmony of all is hereby strictly forbidden.
Why is my world upside down, this is becoming a nightmare where .02% of our population can control 99.98% of the population...this is f*cking nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
D’oh! A queer! A female queer!
Gay is looking at my bum
Ze, a name one calls oneself
Far, the normal people run
The schools have been lost, and have been for quite some time. The only option is for parents to beg, borrow, or steal whatever it takes to get kids n a carefully vetted religious school, especially for the first few years.
Get it? And this is for music class!

Pretty soon I will have a PhD in idiocity.
Instead of telling these leftist POS teachers to take the Cleft Sign and shove it where the sun don’t shine,
why not play their game and demand that they make the music from “The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies” the national LGBTMayo movement theme song.
And make them dance to it.
I attended kindergarten through high school in MA, and I have fond memories of my music teacher wheeling her piano into our first grade classroom. We would sing about Columbus sailing the ocean blue, and The Halls of Montezuma. I am so sad for the children of today.
And my kids thought it was tacky for climate change lessons to be held in PE.
I don’t know...the old mnemonic Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge...well you draw your own conclusions.
I had a similar experience in small-town KS. One of my classmates even became one of those music teachers and she just recently retired after over 35 years in the classroom.
Dear God I am so glad my son is in college now. He goes to Franklin Pierce in NH where Andrew Card is the President. The usual college crap is not tolerated there and thank God, nor would my son tolerate it. Many black folks go there too, many whom he is friends with and they do not tolerate this BLM garbage either. There is sanity out there folks.
Apparently that is a Malcolm X quote, but it is still correct.
I bought some video games online for a gift last Christmas. At the checkout one of the questions was... Are you male, female or other? WT%?
I’ll be damned if I ever use Ze for he and she. Pound sand freaks!!
