They are taught that ideas about human sexuality are \u201ccolonized,\u201d that white colonizers from Europe forced their views on other people and cultures, and that current discourse around sex and gender is still affected by colonization. The curriculum instructs children to experiment with their own gender expression, and to commit by as early as fifth grade to become queer activists.<\/p>\n<p>The curriculum begins in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/topic\/kindergarten\">kindergarten<\/a>. Several PowerPoint presentations obtained by Rufo, entitled \u201cUnderstanding Our Bodies: Kindergarten Health Scientists,\u201d exposes children to talking about their genitalia, by framing it in the context of \u201cbeing scientists to know about our bodies.\u201d The presentations then show graphic drawings of male and female genitalia. The presentations place particular emphasis on the word \u201cBODIES,\u201d and refer to either a \u201cperson with a penis\u201d or a \u201cperson with a vulva,\u201d because, according to the presentations, \u201cAny gender and kid can have any type of body.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In first and second grade, students are indoctrinated into the basic tenets of queer theory. It teaches students to think about gender as a social construct. \u201cGender is something adults came up with to sort people into groups,\u201d one of the presentations reads. Another presentation, entitled \u201cOur Names, Genders, and Pronouns,\u201d encourages children to present their gender pronouns.<\/p>\n<p>Another presentation teaches students that \u201c[g]ender is like outer space because there are as many ways to be different genders as there are stars in the sky!\u201d In another presentation, students are exposed to gender pronouns, including transgender pronouns like they\/them and ze\/zir. \u201cOr you can make up your own,\u201d it states. It also says that students can go by more than one set of pronouns.<\/p>\n<p>In third through fifth grade, students are introduced to \u201cLGBTQIA2S+\u201d concepts. Students are also taught to use gender-neutral terms for people: \u201cgirls and boys\u201d is replaced with words like \u201clearners,\u201d \u201cy\u2019all,\u201d and \u201cfolx\u201d; words like \u201cmom and dad\u201d are replaced by \u201cparents,\u201d \u201cfamily,\u201d or \u201cyour adults\u201d; and the honorifics \u201cMr.,\u201d \u201cMrs.,\u201d and \u201cMiss\u201d are replaced by the gender neutral \u201cMx.\u201d In another presentation, students are introduced to the concepts of \u201ccisheteronormativity,\u201d which is used as a means of \u201coppression for nondominant\u201d sexual and gender identities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing straight and cisgender (cis) are both dominant identities,\u201d the presentation says. \u201cThe culture, systems, and assumptions that everyone is straight is called heteronormative. The culture, systems, and assumptions that everyone is cisgender is called cisnormative. Therefore, the culture, systems, and assumptions that everyone is straight and cis is called cisheteronormativity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, students are asked to make a \u201ccommitment to change\u201d according to the tenets of queer ideology. The six commitments students are asked to make are: \u201cI commit to learning more about what LGBTQIA2S+ words mean and how they have changed over time\u201d; \u201cI commit to learning about the history and leadership of Black trans women\u201d; \u201cI commit to practicing pronouns and correcting myself EVERY time\u201d; \u201cI commit to attending QSA\/GSA and being a leader at my school\u201d; \u201cI commit to watching and reading books, movies, and TV shows that have LGBTQIA+ characters\u201d; and \u201cI commit to being my full self!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Portland School District is home to more than 49,000 students across some 79 schools in the city of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/topic\/portland\">Portland<\/a>, Oregon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Portland\u2019s public school system is indoctrinating its students to become queer activists as early as kindergarten through 5th grade.
