Public schools paid up to $1.4M to screen films made by GavinNewsom's wife: Report
The Representation Project, a nonprofit group founded by Jennifer Newsom, has raked in $1,483,001 from licensing fees for a series of documentary films produced by Newsom and the nonprofit group since 2012, according to a report from the government watchdog Open the Books. A significant portion of those fees came from public schools.
The organization's impact report says the group has distributed its"film curricula" to more than 5,000 schools in every state, while Miss Representation, The Mask You Live In, and The Great American Lie have reached a combined 2.6 million students. The group charges up to $600 to license each film, with The Great American Lie commanding the largest fee.
Open the Books said it was unable to obtain a breakdown of how many schools in California had licensed the organization's films, two of which reportedly feature Gavin Newsom himself. But the group's films have drawn increased scrutiny due to their far-left political content and, in one case, pornographic content.
"The Representation Project not only solicits donors from big-money political supporters of Gavin Newsom, but also receives public tax dollars through schools to create a new generation of supporters and activists in the state’s — and country’s — schoolchildren," Open the Books wrote in a blog post."The Representation Project transforms public school expenditures into activist training expenses, and in the process exposes children to objectionable sexual content.
