A Florida teacher is facing an investigation by the state Department of Education after she screened a Disney movie with a gay character to her students in the classroom, she said.
She claimed that all her students had parent-signed permission slips to watch PG movies. However, a parent and school board member later objected to the film’s inclusion of an LGBTQ character., reported Barbee to the Department of Education for indoctrination, the educator alleged. But the teacher said she showed the movie because it incorporated lessons about earth science and ecosystems that her students were learning about in the curriculum. She also said the movie includes social and emotional lessons like “overcoming differences, spreading kindness, communication and chasing you dreams.
Barbee said Rodriguez — an apparent member of the rightwing group Moms for Liberty — has plotted a “rampage to get rid of every form of representation out of our schools” as a school board member.
