Don't worry Florida, you're not the only backward state trying to hide the fact that LGBTQ+ people exist from children. At least seven states have introduced bills to restrict how teachers and textbooks discuss LGBTQ+ individuals and history. It's not just the laws trying to prevent little Bobby or Suzy from discussing their same-sex parents in class that are being passed. It's also about passing laws to help people forget that racism is a real thing, and blocking the discussion of racial bias and systemic racism. Proponents of the curriculum bills say that they are designed to give parents a say in their kids’ schools and protect kids. But LGBTQ+ advocates say the bills if they become law, will put already at-risk kids in more danger of mental health issues or bullying — and even put them at risk of being outed to their families.
