Evangelist Franklin Graham compared the transgender activism efforts to eliminate parents in a child’s decision-making process to how communists acted in the Soviet Union.
In a Facebook post, Graham took his home state, North Carolina, to task, for their new curriculum, innocently titled the “Gender Unicorn.”
Graham writes:
The Gender Unicorn? Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools in North Carolina wants to try to brainwash our children into accepting that homosexuality and transgender behavior is okay—and they’re using an innocent looking Gender Unicorn to do it. Parents, watch out. They are using this unicorn to grab the imagination of children and make this seem acceptable. Their new school policy, set to go into effect August 29, includes very concerning gender neutral bathroom/locker room policies and more. The policy says staff shouldn’t use the terms “girls” and “boys,” but should use “scholars” or “students.” It says that the school will work with students to determine when parents should be involved and that the staff can’t tell parents what their gender identity is without the student’s permission. Parents should be outraged and so should we.
The Communists used brainwashing in Eastern Europe and Russia, and they took the parents out of the decision-making process and the state began to make decisions about morality. This is a dangerous path.
[Everyone] should be aware of what’s going on. You can be sure that these battles are being fought in your community as well, and if not, they’re just around the corner. Be praying for the August 9 Charlotte school board meeting, and if you live in Mecklenburg County make it a priority to attend.
