Students meet with school board,demand Arlington stand up to Va Gov. Youngkin's anti-trans policies
Video-a special education teacher slams Gov Youngkin's hateful anti-trans policies 1 min 54 sec
On the 13th of October, Arlington County Public School students defied threats from Fascists and met with the school board to condemn VA Governor Youngkin's vicious anti-trans student policies. They demanded that Arlington hold the line and stand up to this MAGAt governor and the hate he is spreading as much as possible.
Editor's note: Nationally an incredible wave of hate has been spreading against LGBTQ folks as a whole and especially against trans people. In the wake of Dobbs and spreading abortion bans, religious extremists and hard Fascists have decided trans people are next. These hatemongers now control most of the GOP and think they can literally vote down the right of LGBTQ people to exist.
Already in Texas parents of trans kids are effectively fugitives from so-called "child protective services." A single doctor visit can out them, as can refusing that doctor visit. Florida (home of DeSantis and "Don't Say Gay") is close behind except for not yet targetting parents as well as transgender children and teens. Outright talk of "protective" roundups and camps was invoked by two Arizona GOP operatives, one of them (Kari Lake) a candidate for public office. Just last weekend a drag queen story hour in Silver Spring, MD was assaulted by Proud Boys, who are to Donald Trump as the SA(Nazi stormtroopers)were to Adolf Hitler.
There are real fears in many places that pogroms and concentration camps could be coming, especially if Trump retakes the White House or DeSantis is elected or steals the 2024 election. The spreading wave of hate has the ugly feel of Germany in the late 1920s or early 1930's.
