Garden State Equality claims its curriculum is for the good and safety of vulnerable children. Its teachings, however, result in the exact opposite.
A little more than a year ago, the New Jersey Legislature passed, and Gov. Phil Murphy signed, a law mandating the teaching of LGBT subject matter in public school curriculum, beginning in 2020-21.
In response to the law, the activist group Garden State Equality has prepared a curriculum, currently piloted in 12 New Jersey schools and planned to be employed statewide in the fall. This is consistent with Murphy’s vision. At Garden State Equalitys 2019 Ball, he said, I applaud Garden State Equality for not only leading this effort, but for your continued work in helping to craft this curriculum.
Garden State Equality (GSE) is an LGBT advocacy organization devoted to instilling its vision of justice through an LGBT lens in society. Consistent with its vision, GSEs self-described LGBT-inclusive curriculum spans all subjects math, English, social studies, health, science, visual and performing arts, and world languages beginning in fifth grade. Having New Jerseys 1.4 million public school students see the world through a LGBT lens is the goal in every class and, thus, now the goal of public education. This is well in excess of the curriculum laws vague requirements.
In the way it is being implemented, the law is simply an instrument empowering GSE to accomplish its mission and vision, embedding sexual and gender ideology throughout curriculum. GSE envisions its curriculum as a model that we can bring to every other state in the nation.
A number of grassroots parent coalitions from across New Jersey, representing the states diversity, are raising awareness about and opposing the co-opting of public school curriculum for such ideological purposes. Historically, public schools have been the gateway to American society for immigrant families. But now, immigrant families all over New Jersey are deeply troubled and perplexed regarding the apparent goals of public education and the interests it serves.
New Jerseys more than 600 school districts are not technically required to adopt GSEs curriculum, although they are required to comply with the new state LGBT curriculum law. GSE is also substantially involved in drafting the New Jersey Department of Educations guidance to schools about implementing the LGBT curriculum law. However, New Jersey school districts are not required to accept such state guidance, allowing districts to take a careful and educated approach to the curriculum laws implementation.
The sexual and gender ideology advanced through GSEs curriculum, and through its direct involvement in the states guidance to public schools, should be rejected by the boards of education of all New Jersey school districts for at least the following reasons.
The stated goal of sexual and gender ideology is to get rid of the gender binary. At public hearings concerning the school curriculum, advocates consistently characterize such a goal as a must.
We cannot get rid of the gender binary, however, as humans are a sexually dimorphic species. This reality can be denied, silenced, threatened, and punished. But it cannot be rid of. The existence of every person is proof of the union of what is uniquely male and uniquely female. While GSE may reject this most basic truth of humanity, it cannot eradicate it. And New Jersey public schools should not partner with its futile efforts to do so.
Beyond denying the gender binary, GSE insists a biological male who calls himself a woman is, in fact, a woman. If thats the case, what is a woman? Woman becomes a word without meaning as is the case when a biological female claims shes a man. GSEs ideology commands students to use such words. This does not educate, enlighten, or advance understanding. It mandates irrationality within school curriculum.
GSE claims its teachings are for the good and safety of vulnerable children. Those teachings, however, result in the exact opposite. GSE demands giving puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to children, impeding the development of their bodies more than 37 trillion cells. It even demands the removal of healthy body parts, which is profoundly evil. These practices are the sexual, physical, mental, and emotional abuse of children, manipulating their bodies to conform to an ideology.
Teaching and endorsing such practices doesnt educate, but makes students vulnerable to abuse. I dont use the words abuse and evil to be inflammatory, but because they fit the described practices. GSE doesnt accept the right of anyone to impede the imposition of its will on children’s minds and bodies, preventing even parents from taking actions to protect their own children from abusive measures.
The sexual and gender ideology of GSE and like-minded advocates addresses the most basic questions of life and meaning concerning our humanity. It even has its own language and vocabulary, which it expects everyone to adopt. It is a totalizing and comprehensive belief system, which functions as a religion. Instituting compulsory teaching within public schools effectively establishes such ideology as a state religion.
One of its core convictions is intolerance for any dissent. It mars those who disagree with epithets, such as haters and bigots, applying these labels to many families and students within every school district in New Jersey who would dare express disagreement. These accusations even include parents who object to giving their own child the harmful drugs commanded by sexual and gender activists.
The ideology insists that every new word or idea must be affirmed. Acceptance of sexual and gender ideology renders a person defenseless to its demands. None of this carries educational value.
The Kelsey Coalition, formed in 2019 by a group of concerned parents whose children have been harmed by transgender healthcare practices, can serve as a resource to school districts, allowing them to make informed decisions for educating and protecting New Jersey students. As its website indicates, its membership now includes:
Surely, it would be highly immoral, unethical, and contrary to the educational and health interests of students not to inform them of the severe and irreparable harms that result from transgender physical interventions. Sexual and gender ideology pathologizes puberty, teaching that its suppression is a treatment. This article from an endocrinologist would educate students regarding life-altering effects on brain development, bone density, and sexual function, among other harms.
Regarding sex and gender, we are often warned against being on the wrong side of history. One day, the story will be told, and a chapter will cover what was done to childrens minds and bodies in the latter half of the 2010s into the 2020s. It will be included among the atrocities in the story of humanitys inhumanity. It will be regarded with special horror because children will have been victimized in an impossible attempt to vindicate false adult beliefs and behaviors.
This historical moment provides an opportunity for every board of education member of every school district in New Jersey to be on the side of the story in which people courageously took a stand to protect children from such harms and horrors.
Here is a Math quiz for you.
If you have 10 heterosexuals and you remove 6 of them to private schools, or home schooling, how many heterosexual do you have left in the LGBT Ideology public schools.
The answer is zero. Of the remaining 4 ..all 4 were brainwashed in to thinking they are LGB and or T.
And 2 committed suicide.
That sounds more like College-level LGBTQ "introduction to Principles of Physics. Professor Richard Dick Hurtz.
Certain states DESERVE what is coming from this virus. Too bad the disease won’t attack the perverts in control.
Evil no longer lurks in the shadows, now its in our faces. Fire any school board and school administrators in this country who push this crap on to our innocent children. Dont remove your child from the school, fight to fix the school!!
I hate fags
Heard Col Alan West on Brian Kilmedeade’s show the other day. He said school board elections are the most important elections. Here’s one reason.
Noting that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect politically correct LGBQ rights like the early states did with the Bill of Rights and other rights later amended, patriots are reminded of the following.
The states have given Congress the express 14th Amendment (14A) power to make laws that discourage misguided, activist states like NJ from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections.
From the 14th Amendment:
"Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
H O W E V E R
We are still stuck with a worthless Congress left over from the lawless Obama Administration that will predictably munch popcorn while watching CNN show NJ children being classroom-indoctrinated by drag queens.
The remedy for constitutionally failed federal and state governments
Patriots need to elect a new patriot Congress that will not only promise to fully support PDJT's already excellent work for MAGA, but will also do the following.
New lawmakers also need to promise to exercise their 14A power to make penal laws to discourage state actors, NJ public schools in this example, from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment-protected freedoms of religious expression and speech in this example.
Remember in November!
MAGA, now KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)
Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA will effectively give fast-working Trump a third term in office imo.
That's the point where I turn it off. I'll not watch that s____.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

If a lesbian leaves Chicago on a westbound train going 40 mph, and a transgender male leaves an hour later on a train going 55 mph, at what point can they meet up to exchange complaints about intolerant homophobes?
I see the scary stories regularly
I have two kids in the public school system at one of the more liberal areas in the United States of America - Marin County, California
None of these LGBTQRXTYC programs have come around here , there is no confusion teaching on gender or gender identity ; so to me these are all just scary stories
I think out of 1000 kids at my older sons middle school , maybe two or three our boys the dress like girls or vice versa
And nobody gives a crap Or pays them any mind
evil sumbags
If Joe marry Dean and get a child, how many people will be at the house 1+1=?. Is that first grade math going to be? Will science be talking about the seahorse as being an equal partner of nature?
How much is 1 + 1?
Depending on gender type it could be 2 or up to 58 as facebook has defined:-)
This is New Jersey. Sorry to say but the residents of my state don’t have much of a backbone about anything.
This will be very well received in heavily Muslim Patterson.
That's the problem. They used to demand to not be beaten up, to be left alone. Then they demanded to be recognized. Now they are demanding compliance!
New Math vs. Science? Don’t bother showing your work, Daddy will be dead in less than “1 year.” That is the price of faggotry.
Go ahead. Ask me why we homeschool.
