Proponents of the law say parents, not teachers, should broach the subject of these types of human rights with their children. Opponents to the law have criticized it for marginalizing LGBTQ+ people. The bill reads: “Classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards.” The law forbids instruction to children of a certain (but not specified) age on sexual orientation and gender identity in schools, allowing parents to sue districts over violations. Ron DeSantis is expected to sign the bill into law this week. Two weeks ago, Florida’s Republican-dominated legislature passed a bill that has been dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill. So, why is “gay” suddenly considered political? A quick look at what the Florida state government is up to provides the answer. Soccer justify playing such a massive match in a stadium that sees the LGBTQ+ community as a political pawn and not the humans they are? To make matters worse, the USMNT is scheduled to host a crucial World Cup qualifier against Panama at Exploria Stadium on Sunday. Nonetheless, the banner, which made it into the Spirit’s pregame hype video, was forcibly removed and the Pride have yet to make any sort of public statement about the removal. The Orlando Pride telling fans they can’t display a banner with the word “gay” on it is like telling fans they can’t display a banner with the word “woman” or “Black” on it. LGBTQ+ rights are not up for political debate LGBTQ+ rights should be inalienable human rights akin to racial or gender rights. Let’s just start by explaining the word “gay” is not political.
