Major carmaker drops sponsorship of LGBTQ propaganda for kids
Carmaker Kia appears to have dropped its sponsorship of the Rainbow Library, a program that distributes gender ideology propaganda to school libraries across the country.
Over 8,100 schools in 33 states have signed up for the Rainbow Library, which provides LGBTQ-themed books for over 6.3 million K-12 students. Such books include “One of a Kind, Like Me,” about a young boy who wants to dress as a princess in the school parade; “When Aiden Became a Brother,” about parents who help their son become transgender; “All Boys Aren’t Blue,” a graphically sexual story about a homosexual boy; and “When We Love Someone, We Sing to Them,” about a young boy who falls in love with another boy.
The Rainbow Library also provides tool kits for teachers to guide them in encouraging children to "come out" as transgender, according to Consumers’ Research.
“We hear time and time again, especially in places where there really are not that many LGBTQ+ supports for youth already, including more rural locations, including more conservative areas, that when a teacher or a librarian rolls out the Rainbow Library in their location, students start coming out to them,” said Michael Rady of the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), which runs the Rainbow Library. “Right? ‘Cause they see that adult as someone they can trust. So we have this guidance so that a Rainbow Library recipient has the language and tools they need in order to best support that student.”
Kia removed from list of sponsors
On December 18, the Daily Caller reported that the Rainbow Library’s sponsor page listed Kia and TJ Maxx. As of this report, however, Kia has been removed. The automaker did not respond to The Gold Report's request for comment.
GLSEN urges teachers to insert LGBTQ propaganda in discussions
GLSEN’s materials instruct teachers to keep a student’s gender identity “confidential,” with no mention of involving parents. They also provide guidance on making school curricula “LGBTQ inclusive,” which means inserting LGBTQ references and propaganda into lessons.
“For example, when teaching about the Holocaust or about civil rights movements, be sure to include the persecution, struggles and successes of the LGBTQ community,” GLSEN’s Safe Space Kit advises. Teachers are also encouraged to “include examples of diverse families, including same-sex couples and LGBTQ parents, whenever referencing families in the classroom.”
The program has had measured "success," with some schools reporting that the propaganda is drawing students in. A librarian in Missouri, for example, said students have been requesting LGBTQ books since the school partnered with the Rainbow Library, with one student specifically asking for a book about “a young lesbian girl.” An elementary teacher in Maryland read to her students “Peanut Goes for the Gold,” a book about a guinea pig with “they/them” pronouns, which sparked an in-class discussion on pronouns.
