I wanted love, acceptance, and a community, just like any 13-year-old. Growing up today, I faced a culture that pushed vulnerable kids toward drastic body modifications instead of exploring identity through safer means. I thought surgeries and treatments would bring happiness, but they only led to pain and complications. I urge trans activists and allies to reflect on this. Encouraging acceptance of our bodies as they are, rather than promoting risky medical interventions, is a compassionate approach that truly supports well-being.

Griffin Sivert just wanted love, acceptance, a community to belong to… Just like any other 13-year-old (the age at which she first socially transitioned), she wanted to fit in and feel that she was loved and respected by her peers. Had she grown up a decade sooner, she might have dressed “emo” for a while, dyeing her hair black and experimenting with bold makeup as a way to explore her identity and give her an edge. Perhaps she would have taken to occasionally smoking or drinking behind her parents’ backs. Or maybe she would have simply joined the school art club, where she could find friends, and that would have been enough. Instead, she grew up in a culture that is deeply sick. A culture that leads vulnerable children to believe that permanently destroying their bodies with drugs and surgeries is the only path to true happiness, while medical institutions readily provide this so-called “care.” Griffin got on the path of bodily modification and never got off it. She was perpetually chasing an imaginary end point at which the cosmetic interventions would make her feel worthy. The testosterone wasn’t enough, the double mastectomy wasn’t enough, and neither was the hysterectomy. Then, the phalloplasty brought years of excruciating pain and severe health complications, ultimately leading to her death at only 24. I urge trans activists/"allies" to reflect on what has happened here. Please consider the possibility that encouraging others to accept their bodies as they *are* rather than encouraging them to undergo dangerous medical interventions is VERY far from *hateful*. In fact, it is the only truly compassionate approach.

Teachers at St Kevin Catholic Elementary School in Brampton, ON are actively engaged this spring. There is a book summary/review available at @NewDiscourses. A list of "white privileges" was noticed, which some consider racist. One of the privileges mentioned is the ability to remain oblivious to the language and customs of people of color without facing any consequences. Another privilege mentioned is the ability to work for an affirmative action employer without being suspected of benefiting from race. This is referred to as "confession" and is seen as a tactic used in thought reform.

Teachers at Taylor Creek Public School in Toronto recently participated in a PD day focused on becoming anti-racist educators. They watched a TED talk discussing the invention of race and its impact on society. Sticky notes were used to reflect on quotes from the talk. Another TED talk emphasized the danger of reducing cultures to stereotypes. The staff engaged in group discussions and activities to explore their own identities and biases. The day concluded with reading an article on talking to children about race and discussing the intersection of social identity categories with student achievement.

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

Come along for a quick thread and see what teachers at Taylor Creek Public School (Toronto) did at their last PD day on “Becoming Anti-Racist Educators” (April 8th). First, they watched a TED talk by an American journalist who refers to Ibram Kendi as a “leading historian”and claims race, as a concept, was “invented” in the 1450s by Portuguese man named Gomes de Zurara. 15:30: “Let me talk in particular to the white folks, for a minute. Once we understand that people who look like us invented the very notion of race, in order to advantage themselves, and us, isn’t it easier to see that it’s our problem to solve? It’s a white people problem.” Full video: https://youtu.be/Qy-r-3W2Fkg?si=SGPmsZPKUhGJXlZj…

White people need to realize that they created the concept of race to benefit themselves. Therefore, solving issues related to race is their responsibility.

Speaker 0: Me talk in particular to the white folks for a minute. Once we understand that people who look like us invented the very notion of race in order to advantage themselves and us, isn't it easier to see that it's our problem to solve? It's a white people problem.

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

2/ The following quotes/ideas from his talk were written on big sheets of paper for teachers to respond to or reflect on (see sticky notes): “Race is not a thing biologically, it is a story people decided to tell” “People told the story to justify the brutal exploitation of other human beings for profit” “Race as a tool to divide us and to prop up economic, social, and political systems” “'Tool of whiteness' [i.e. capitalism] is still doing the job it was invented to do lesson - in order to advantage themselves people like us invented this white tool to ensure a better life for them… it would make sense that it's our problem to solve.” “If I'm not joining the struggle then I am complicit in the struggle” “Strong feeling of responsibility to make a change” “We all benefit of a society that is void of oppression, because it is the right thing to do”

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

3/ Teachers then watched a TED talk—from 14 years ago—called “The Danger of a Single Story,” which is talk by a Nigerian woman who explains that it is important to try not to reduce other cultures/countries to simplistic/stereotypical/limiting caricatures. Unfortunately, the perfectly reasonable ideas she presents, which should simply lead to increased knowledge about/sensitivity to cultural differences, are now used to justify and prop up endless Culturally Relevant and Responsive Pedagogy (CRRP), which has teachers obsessing over the identity of characters in books (which becomes the central idea of the lesson), getting rid of books that don’t feature “marginalized” identities, and having kids hyper-focus on their own identity. Video: https://youtu.be/D9Ihs241zeg?si=sLAOknnxdKE84aJw

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

4/ They then divided staff into groups of 5, asking them to partake in a discussion about this diagram and what zone they “identified with.” https://t.co/Am5zCRDJU5

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

5/ Next, staff were told to do an “identity map” activity inspired by the book “This Book is Anti-Racist.” The directions were: “Create your own identity map and discuss what social identity categories your identity fits under. Do you belong to the dominant group? Are there parts of your identity that belong to the dominant culture? By conducting this exercise, you will understand oppression and how those who are oppressed face discrimination.”

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

6/ Finally, teachers read a 2006 article titled “Talking to Children About Race: The Importance of Inviting Difficult Conversations.” They were instructed to “discuss the social identity categories created by society and how these categories intersect with student identity and can impact student achievement,” and asked: “what shifts in practice have you made since understanding your own biases and student identities[?]”

The Sudbury region school board is implementing "Equity Walks" where "Equity Reps" evaluate the school's efforts towards promoting woke Marxism. A series of questions are asked to assess various aspects, including representation, privilege, bias, and inclusivity. This practice is observed in other school boards as well.

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

Sudbury region school board @rainbowschools is getting their “Equity Reps” to perform “Equity Walks” in their schools. Essentially they’re asked go through a long list of questions to evaluate whether the school is doing everything it possibly can to push woke Marxism (or whether adjustments are necessary to make that happen). Here are all the questions: -Who is participating in the life of the school? Who is not? -Who is reflected in your staff? Who is not? -Who is referred to the office due to behaviour? Who is not? -Who is successful? Who is not? -Do the systems privilege one group over another? -Have you engaged in self-reflection about why systems are as they are? -How are lived experiences of students valued? -Are assessment and instruction practices equitable? -Who are the groups that you see in the halls? What makes the popular groups popular? Who is not reflected in any groups? -With whom do staff interact? With whom do they not? -Where do you see allyship? -Where do you see privilege? -Where do you see bias? -Listen to the language being used. Does it privilege a certain group? Do staff intervene when it discriminates? -Who is represented on the walls, in display cases, and on bulletin boards? Who is not? -Are the displays current? Inclusive? Visually appealing? -What messages are conveyed by what you see displayed? -As a student, what might be the impact of seeing yourself represented throughout the school? What might be the impact of not seeing yourself reflected in the school? -Walk through the library. Who is represented? Who is not? -Look through classroom libraries, read-alouds, and the bookroom Who is represented? Who is not? -Reflect on the use of online resources. Who is represented? Who is not? -Whose voice from the community do you hear? Whose do you not? -Do you actively work to centre community voices? -Do you prioritize and value the interconnectedness of knowledge? -Are your school practices culturally responsive? -Do you actively embrace allyship? -Do you model the use of inclusive language? -Do you consistently address language that discriminates? -Do you engage in courageous conversations to identify and disrupt discrimination? -Do you actively recognize and celebrate diverse cultures? -Are you trauma sensitive? -Are resources distributed equitably in your school? -Do you create space for safe conversations? (I’ve seen this practice in other boards too, btw.)

Speaker 0: Chanel Fall speaking with regard to the human rights policy. Good evening. I'd like to share my concerns regarding the human rights policy adopted by the board in January 2022. While I support the mission to foster true inclusivity for students and staff, there are significant problems with this policy. The most obvious one being that it declares support for both equality and equity at the same time. These terms are often conflated, yet they represent fundamentally contradictory principles. Equality says we should not discriminate on the basis of a protected ground, but equity tells us discrimination is perfectly okay so long as it serves the right groups. If the board supports equity, it simply cannot say that it is fighting against discrimination, and it cannot say that it supports equality for all. The board should know that this is incoherent considering it it has defined these terms in the very policy I'm addressing tonight, where it admits that equity means the removal of disparity and disproportionality between groups using extra and positive measures. In other words, people who, people who are assumed to be oppressors due to their identities can and should be discriminated against if it means that people who declare so called oppressed identities can benefit. Grouping people into oppressor and oppressed categories is a radical Marxist perspective that is not shared by the majority of Canadians who tend not to judge people according to their assumed identity based power. We need to stop pretending that those who advocate for discrimination under the guise of equity are progressive and inclusive and get back to treating people equally regardless of their skin color and other traits as this is the best way to foster real inclusion. I asked the board to revise this policy, emphasizing the importance of equality, not equity, as soon as possible. Thank you very much.

Speaker 1: That are Speaker 2: coming These are the posters and flags teacher Annie Ohana has hanging in her classroom. They're an important part of her curriculum. Speaker 1: And the goal is to actually have them think about it. Speaker 2: They're also part of the reason why Ohana was targeted online by Chanel Fall, a former high school teacher who says she now exposes wokism in Canadian schools. Fall posted a photo on social media of Ohana's classroom, saying she's influencing kids to adopt her personal political beliefs and needs to be fired. Speaker 1: I was very disappointed because they seem to be making a lot of assumptions that just simply were based on complete misinformation, lies, and and in fact, puts myself and other teachers and students in my community in danger. Speaker 2: CTV News reached out to Fall, who doubled down saying any reasonable person who looks through her thousands of posts on x will see that she's indoctrinating kids with radical woke ideology. Speaker 1: We're not indoctrinating anybody. What we're doing is building really strong, empowered citizens that can speak up for themselves. Speaker 2: This isn't the first time this has happened, but it is the first time Ohana has spoken publicly about it. Speaker 1: Think really the call out was to make sure that other teachers knew it's okay to ask for help, that you you don't have to suffer in silence. Speaker 2: According to the Canadian Anti Hate Network, harassing educators is on the rise, stemming from opposition to sexual orientation and gender identity education. Speaker 1: What we're seeing is an increase in attacks on teachers themselves, through harassment campaigns, emails, social media attacks, and it's potentially very dangerous. I'm thinking of the teachers that can't be in front of you right now, that are so scared, that are going on long term stress leaves. Right? This is absolutely having an impact. Speaker 2: And just like the posters in her classroom, Ohana plans on using this online interaction as a teachable moment. Isabella Zavarici, CTV News, Surrey.

Today kicks off trans awareness week. Parents should be aware of the “activities” being planned. 🧵 (BTW: Ontario curriculum has body parts taught in Gr 1, consent in Gr 2, sexual orientation in 5, gender identity in 8.)

Monday begins looking quite benign. Slide 6 gets a bit more serious sounding. Pen and paper time, important questions are coming.

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

Students are asked what it means to be a “boy” or “girl” before compiling/comparing their answers.

Then, students are asked to reflect on their answers. Why did they think a boy was a kid with a penis? And a girl was a kid with a vagina? Could it be that they are intellectually incompetent, or morally deficient? Lots to ponder.

The class watches the video below, which informs them that: - “your gender doesn’t always match the sex you were called when you were born” - you could be born with a penis but a girl inside, or born with a vagina but a boy inside, etc. https://youtu.be/PzGauky20tc

Then there is a read aloud of the book “who are you?” From the book: “When babies are born, people ask ‘is it a boy or a girl?’ Babies can’t talk, so grownups make a guess by looking at their bodies.” Concepts like bigender, third gender, etc introduced. https://youtu.be/HgV_M4n4PYc

Have you been indoctrinated yet?

Tuesday, students are first asked to define “transgender”. Then introduced to Jazz, before watching a video that shows a 10 year old boy who liked “the colour pink, and girls’ clothes”, was affirmed by his family, leading to blissful paradise: https://youtu.be/d3M2kd_VmeM

Students then learn that being transgender can mean “not conforming to gender norms”, and that being born “in the wrong body” is just a thing that happens.

More on the difference between “gender” and sex, and an introduction to the gender unicorn. Students learn that there are “over 54 gender pronouns”. Does that include “tree”, I wonder?

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

Then they look at some statistics — specific source for each statement unclear.

@ChanLPfa - Chanel Pfahl 🇨🇦

Kids learn that 44 trans and “gender variant peoples” were murdered in the states in 2020. (That is about 0.0089% of all US murders that year, but that part was left out.) No such statistics in Canada. Maybe it’s transphobia, but let’s see what the students think.

Wednesday, students start by reflecting the importance of trans visibility week. They are then free to explore the links in the virtual classroom (each books link to a read aloud, the pride flag links to history of flag, the quote poster leads to a boy’s coming out story, etc.).

Thursday starts with the question “what does it mean to be kind?” Hm. We turn to Jeffrey Marsh for inspiration. Ok, now what does it mean to be kind, kids?

Hi there! I often get asked if I'm a boy or a girl, and I love that question. But sometimes, humans can be more than just one or the other. We can be both or float in between. We're wild and exciting creatures. So, if you see someone like me, would you be extra nice to them? It's important to be kind because we can feel lonely too. Thank you!
