NEWS FLASH

Petition Challenges School’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ Rule | Anoka-Hennepin School District in Minnesota has a very negative climate for LGBT students (four have committed suicide in the past two years), and advocates are now pushing for the school to lift its “gag” policy on LGBT issues. Under the guise of “neutrality,” teachers are not permitted to openly discuss issues of sexual orientation with students. The Change.org petition now has over 10,000 signatures.
