K-12 schools are bringing drag queens into the classroom to teach gender ideology, a Thursday video revealed.
Teachers are praising “Drag Queen Story Hour,” according to a clip released by videographer Sean Fitzgerald and the David Horowitz Freedom Center. The program “captures the imagination and play of the gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models.”
Maurice Sendak Community School, a public school located in Brooklyn, New York, hosted a drag queen and first grade teacher Alexis Hernandez marveled at the event in a testimonial published on Drag Queen Story Hour’s website.
“Drag Queen Story Hour gave my first graders a fun and interactive platform to talk and think about social and emotional issues like acceptance, being yourself, and loving who you are,” Hernandez said. “During our debrief … [students] were preaching the incredible lessons they had learned, like ‘it’s OK to be different,’ and ‘there’s no such thing as “boy” and “girl” things.’”
The first grade teacher said she would be hosting the event again the following year. Katrina Green, a teacher from Chickpeas Preschool in Brooklyn, also lauded the program.
The event “allows preschool children to deepen and complicate their ideas about gender at the exact age when they are often developing rigid ideas about this concept,” Green said.
Drag Queen Story Hour markets itself to children between 3 and 8 years old. The program’s reading list includes books like “Jacob’s New Dress” by Sarah and Ian Hoffman and “Red: A Crayon’s Story”by Michael Hall. While the former book’s plot revolves around a boy convincing his parents to let him wear a dress to school, the latter chronicles the journey of a crayon “mistakenly labeled” red to identify successfully as blue.
Fitzgerald cited articles noting a spike in children identifying as transgender within the past few years.
“Think about how absurd this is,” the videographer said. “The taxpayer is funding adult-themed performers to come and read to our smallish children in order to indoctrinate them into a political ideology about gender while, at the same time, school districts across the country are removing any and all references to biological sex from science textbooks.”
Fitzgerald directed viewers to stopk12indoctrination.org, where they can report indoctrination in K-12 schools.

To say that more children are identifying with this is like sending a fire fighter with a fire truck to the schools to read to them. Of course they are going to identify with wanting to be a firefighter when they grow up…

Stop cramming this down our kids (and our) throats! Be gay, trans, bi, whatever…I don’t care! But quit recruiting our children!
EVERY PARENT SHOULD TAKE THEIR CHILD OUT OF SCHOOL.
FIRE ALL WHO HAD A HAND IN THIS.
THIS IS WHAT LIBERALS ARE DOING TO OUR CHILDREN. NO MORE BEING A HAPPY CHILD ANYMORE!
CORRUPTION, INDOCTRINATION. RUINING THEIR LITTLE MINDS. MAKES ME SICK TO MY STOMACH.
Diversity is our strength!
You are a very sick minded individual. This demeans our society. It condones pedophilia type behavior! Placing this on the innocent young is outlandish! THIS MUST STOP NOW!
You misspeak. Unity is our strength!
Any parent that would allow this to happen at the school where their child attended, should lose custody for neglecting their child and handing him or her right into the hands of Satan himself. Afterwards every administrative employee Should be fired
Agreed
It’s looking like we need to close down some public schools! Parents need to take their kids out of these schools! Until they can learn proper curriculum no child should show up! This is disgusting and immoral! Complete idiots!
Nash-Francisco won’t be far behind.
Perverts
Disgusting
Absolute madness courtesy of progressive liberals.
