In California, kids just got loaded up with reading material.
On Monday, parents of kiddos in the San Diego Unified School District received an email.
The superintendent let them know of new resources coming into the system.
Per the message, nonprofit Gender Nation would be donating 2,000 “age-appropriate LGBTQ+ inclusive” books.
As reported by The Daily Wire, the missive explained that, in an effort to “empower students through inclusive stories,” the district would “now have access to more literature specifically geared towards LGBTQ+ students.”
Gender Nation’s website describes its goals:
We help communities empower and validate children with LGBTQ+ storytelling.
Libraries are sanctuaries, but they often don’t have the resources they need to serve all children equally. We started Gender Nation to help provide school libraries with LGBTQ+ affirming literature. Our supporters make this possible by helping to curate, purchase, and distribute books at no cost to those we serve.
The site allows visitors to “Donate a Book,” of which it lists 16.
Here are a few, accompanied by excerpts from the site:

The heartwarming true story of two penguins who create a nontraditional family.
In the email, SDUSD’s Youth Advocacy department resource teacher Mick Rabin confirmed the addition’s vitality:
“It’s important for kids to…see their stories often and routinely throughout the school year.”
San Diego’s certainly not alone in its desire to offer gender-oriented instruction to youngsters.
As I reported in March, a legislator in New York is sponsoring a bill to adopt the standards of the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States.
A few points of Senate Bill S2484A:
- Teach 5-year-olds about gender identity
- Teach children as young as 11 about “vaginal, oral, and anal sex”
- Teach children as young as 11 about “queer, two-spirit, asexual, pansexual,” and other identities
- Teach preteens about the use of external and internal condoms
As noted by the Wire, there’s no word on whether San Diego’s new books will be an official part of school curriculum.
Either way, education has rapidly changed.
Until relatively recently, sexuality would have never been uttered to an elementary school class, and identity wasn’t a part of the American discourse.
But that was then, and this is now.
And Gender Nation is fulfilling its mission, to be sure.
“ From the time she was two years old, Jazz knew that she had a girl’s brain in a boy’s body.“
BS

Disgusting pedophiles.They are working to normalize their deviant behavior and groom young kids .

I like for one day all the war war 2 gets and wives to come back to earth to see what we’ve become. They’d be sad I predict.
As usual, looken sharp California.
