Teacher unions influenced educators to incorporate gender ideology politics into classrooms, says report.

The Largest Teachers’‍ Unions Allegedly Pushing Gender Ideology on Students

A new report has claimed ⁤that⁢ the National Education Association (NEA) and the American‍ Federation⁣ of Teachers (AFT), the largest teachers’ unions in the‌ U.S., ⁣are actively promoting radical gender ideology in classrooms. The report by the Defense of Freedom Institute reveals that these​ unions, representing around 4.7 million ⁣educators, are working to change American society ‍by advancing their‌ agenda in schools.

The report highlights that⁣ the ⁢unions ⁤are targeting students by training teachers to inject gender identity politics into their classrooms. This training ⁣was conducted at the Together​ Educating⁢ America’s Children ⁤(TEACH) Conference in Washington, D.C., where AFT⁢ educators were coached on implementing these changes. Sessions ‌titled “Affirming LGBTQIA+ Identities in and out of the Classroom” and “The​ TGNCNB Inclusive School and Classroom” provided actionable ‌skills and strategies for‍ transforming school culture.

The NEA and AFT have ⁣also​ released resources ‍and guidelines to support ‍their agenda. The ⁣NEA’s “LGBTQ Toolkit” encourages members to follow‍ their “Pronoun Guide” and create supportive spaces for LGBTQI+ youth. They condemn discriminatory discipline and‌ express support for displays of inclusivity, such as Black Lives Matter posters and pride⁤ flags,‍ in⁢ classrooms.

Furthermore, ⁢the⁤ report mentions that the unions favor age-appropriate and inclusive bathroom ⁣and locker room policies. They also ​criticize Republican-led bans⁢ on pornographic ⁣content in schools, referring to them as “book bans.”

It is important to note that the NEA and AFT’s actions​ have faced criticism. The report highlights instances where they have clashed with laws that restrict discussions on⁤ gender identity and sexual orientation in younger grade levels. ‍The unions have ⁣encouraged educators to challenge school policies that prohibit inclusive displays and have cited a successful​ lawsuit against a school board that banned political symbols ‌in classrooms.

Overall, ⁣this report sheds ⁢light on the alleged efforts of the largest teachers’ unions in the U.S.⁢ to promote gender ideology in classrooms. It raises important questions about the ⁤role of educators in​ shaping students’ beliefs and the influence ⁤of unions on educational policies.
