Beyond Birds, Beyond Bees…

Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit:

Scott Baker from Breitbart-TV.com and Co-Host of ‘The B-Cast‘ submitted this shocking report today on Obama’s deviant Safe Schools Czar Kevin Jennings.

—-Warning on Content—–

I was recently approached by a team of independent researchers that I have known for some time and have come to trust. They prepared this report involving ‘Safe Schools Czar’ Kevin Jennings and the organization he founded, GLSEN, and asked that I find a way to help draw attention to what they uncovered. Knowing that Gateway Pundit has followed Kevin Jennings since his appointment, as we have on The B-Cast (here, here, and here), and on Breitbart.tv (here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here), I felt this would be an appropriate place for this report.

Warning: The following material is very explicit.

Safe Schools Czar Kevin Jennings was the founder, and for many years, Executive Director of an organization called the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN). GLSEN started essentially as Jennings’ personal project and grew to become the culmination of his life’s work. And he was chosen by President Obama to be the nation’s Safe Schools Czar primarily because he had founded and led GLSEN (scroll for bio).

GLSEN’s stated mission is to empower gay youth in the schools and to stop harassment by other students. It encourages the formation of Gay Student Alliances and condemns the use of hateful words. GLSEN also strives to influence the educational curriculum to include materials which the group believes will increase tolerance of gay students and decrease bullying. To that end, GLSEN maintains a recommended reading list of books that it claims “furthers our mission to ensure safe schools for all students.” In other words, these are the books that GLSEN’s directors think all kids should be reading: gay kids should read them to raise their self-esteem, and straight kids should read them in order to become more aware and tolerant and stop bullying gay kids. Through GLSEN’s online ordering system, called “GLSEN BookLink,” featured prominently on their Web site, teachers can buy the books to use as required classroom assignments, or students can buy them to read on their own.

According to GLSEN’s own press releases from the period during which its recommended reading list was developed, the organization’s three areas of focus were creating “educational resources, public policy agenda, [and] student organizing programs”; in other words, the reading list (chief among its “educational resources”) was of prime importance in GLSEN’s efforts to influence the American educational system.

The list is divided into three main categories: books recommended for grades K-6; books recommended for grades 7-12; and books for teachers. (The books on the list span all genres: fiction, nonfiction, memoirs, even poetry.)

Out of curiosity to see exactly what kind of books Kevin Jennings and his organization think American students should be reading in school, our team chose a handful at random from the over 100 titles on GLSEN’s grades 7-12 list, and began reading through.

What we discovered shocked us. We were flabbergasted. Rendered speechless.

We were unprepared for what we encountered. Book after book after book contained stories and anecdotes that weren’t merely X-rated and pornographic, but which featured explicit descriptions of sex acts between pre-schoolers; stories that seemed to promote and recommend child-adult sexual relationships; stories of public masturbation, anal sex in restrooms, affairs between students and teachers, five-year-olds playing sex games, semen flying through the air. One memoir even praised becoming a prostitute as a way to increase one’s self-esteem. Above all, the books seemed to have less to do with promoting tolerance than with an unabashed attempt to indoctrinate students into a hyper-sexualized worldview.

We knew that unless we carefully documented what we were reading, the public would have a hard time accepting it. Mere descriptions on our part could not convey the emotional gut reaction one gets when seeing what Kevin Jennings wants kids to read as school assignments. So we began scanning pages from each of the books, and then made exact transcriptions of the relevant passages on each page.

Are we exaggerating, or misconstruing quotes that could be interpreted a different way? No: Read the passages below and judge for yourself. There’s no wiggle room. The language is explicit, the intent clear.

The Jawa Report:

So, did Kevin Jennings have anything to do with the recommended book list? Or is Obama’s adviser on “safe schools” only guilty of starting an organization that went terribly bad after he left?

If Jennings was involved, not only should he be fired but he should also have his ass kicked. Either way, somebody’s ass needs to be kicked.

Michelle Malkin:

Would Barack and Michelle Obama approve of their daughters reading this in their classrooms?

Is Kevin Jennings bringing his reading list to your children’s school?

Rod Dreher:

This is the organization led by the man President Obama has appointed as his safe schools czar. As the folks at Gateway Pundit are careful to say:

Let it be clear: This issue has nothing to do with gayness or straightness, which is irrelevant to this report. The point proven here is that the GLSEN reading list promotes the sexualization of children in general, regardless of the “orientation.”Understood — to a point. GLSEN is not some fringe group; it is a major gay advocacy organization. Their M.O. is to say, repeatedly, “If you don’t do as we say, you are condemning gay kids in schools to be bashed and maybe killed.” And what GLSEN says do is to sexualize children — and to scream “Bigot! Bigot! Bigot!” if you point out what a bunch of twisted minds they have. Are you ready for some passages from GLSEN-recommended books for kids? Read on past the jump. Warning: this stuff is very explicit — but I urge you to look at it so you’ll know exactly what a bunch of sickos we’re dealing with here, and the kind of man Barack Obama chose to be his safe schools czar. These GLSEN freaks have to talk about safety, safety, safety and bigot, bigot, bigot all the time, because if people actually got a look at what they’re pushing on schools and on children, they’d stand at the schoolhouse door and say, “Over my dead body!” One certainly can and should share Jennings’ devotion to fighting a culture of anti-gay bullying in schools — but how on earth does that require us to agree that kids ought to read a book with a drawing depicting Boy Scouts approvingly observing one man anally sodomizing another (that link, directly to an image from a GLSEN-recommended book, is NOT safe for work).
