Los Angeles Unified Schools District (LAUSD), a school district in California, created a guide for organizing Rainbow Clubs, including lessons on “LGBTQ+ Liberation”, “Activism” and “Protest Art”.

In a document, the district states that these groups are for “LGBTQ+ elementary students and friends.” The document links to a “Rainbow Club Activities Guide” created by LAUSD Human Relations, Diversity, and Equity, which includes a list of detailed discussion topics and lesson plans.

The guide includes “art, books and games related to LGBTQ+ identities for elementary students.”

The guide explains that Rainbow Clubs are spaces where elementary students can explore LGBTQ+-related topics. This is a place to celebrate many different identities including Lesbians, Gays, Bisexuals, Transgenders, Nonbinary People, Queer People, Questioning Persons, Intersex and Two Spirits.

In a section entitled “LGBTQ+ Liberation”, political activism is discussed. “Activists” are people who try to change the things that they think are unfair in the world. They are willing to speak out when they notice something wrong and collaborate with others to find solutions.

This is what we call fighting for social justice.

The guide goes on to talk about “two incredible activists” of color, Sylvia Rivera & Marsha Johnson. They are the founders Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries. The guide mentions that the two “sometimes called themselves drag queens,” and adds “Today, they may still identify as transgender, or as drag queens.”

The guide tells advisors that they can “create protest art” together if there is time, and gives examples of signs with slogans such as “no one is illegal,” “no wall, no ban,” or “love is Love.”

Students are instructed to watch “Love is Love”, a short movie about two male students who have a romantic interest in each other. The activity includes questions like: “Have you seen other movies with LGBTQ+ character?” and “Do you believe it is important to have trans/queer characters in a TV show or movie?”

The article suggests that students who are part of the Rainbow Club can take the “Pride Flag Quiz” on Buzzfeed. This quiz lists transgender, non-binary and “genderfluid” Pride flags as well as intersex Pride.

The guide suggests an activity titled “We’ve Got Pride” which asks the students: “Who has attended a Pride event?” Tell us all about it! What else do know about Pride?” The book encourages administrators to introduce their students to “Twas The Night Before Pride” which is a story of a child who prepares to attend a Pride Parade. Students are encouraged to create their own “Pride parade float”.

The Daily Wire revealed previously that LAUSD encouraged its students to celebrate Pride Month by coloring in “LGBTQ+ color books,” making and distributing “ally commitment cards,” and playing “LGBTQ+ bingo.”

LAUSD has also promoted transgenderism among young students in other instances, using lesson plans created by an organization which supports the idea that a child can transition into the opposite gender.

The Human Relations, Diversity, and Equity Department of the district did not respond when asked for a comment.

The LAUSD is the nation’s second largest public school system.
