Kindergarten is where the woke agenda begins in Portland's public schools

Public schools in Portland, Oregon are using a curriculum that takes what was once an academic theory and have turned it into a K-5 curriculum about sex and gender.

I have obtained a cache of documents from a source inside Portland Public Schools that exposes the nature of this curriculum. The lessons seek to turn the principles of academic queer theory into an identity-formation program for elementary school students.

The premise is simple: privileged white heterosexuals have created an oppressive gender system in order to dominate racial and sexual minorities. As the curriculum explains, "gender is colonized," and Western societies have used language to erase alternative sexualities. "When white European people colonized different places, they brought their own ideas about gender and sexuality," the curriculum reads.
