COLUMBUS, Ohio — Right before Pride Month begins, Ohio legislators testified in support of their bill that would ban schools from teaching"divisive concepts," including sexuality and gender, which is referred to as the"Don't Say Gay" bill.
Among the majority opponents of the bill in the room sat Cynthia Peeples, the founding director of Honesty for Ohio Education. The bipartisan organization has been fighting against censorship bills, and this is the third one it has had to rally against this Legislature, she said. During the interview, Fowler Arthur was asked about the financial aspect of the bill. While attempting to talk about funding, she brought up the Holocaust, saying that students needed to hear the massacre from the perspective of the"German soldiers."
Maria Bruno with Equality Ohio pointed out that the bill is extremely unclear, since it outright bans the topics for up through third grade, but it is unclear what happens after that. "This is something that you'd be willing, if we need to, zero in and redefine that," Wiggam said."I mean, you'd be willing to do that — I think that that's probably a conversation that we're we should be having —"
Harvey said that learning about LGBTQ+ people, emphasizing trans individuals, is"unsettling" and"violates nondiscrimination laws" because there are religious families that would say this is"totally inappropriate." She then listed off Christianity, Islam and Judaism.
