[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our county hired an outside DEI consulting firm. Among other work, they came with the suggestion to use “scholars” over students, because in part, it helps kids feel more safe [/quote] How was that determined? And how is scholar safer?[/quote] I am an activist in the field of DEI and education. I do not agree with that assessment and would argue that phrases such as “boys and girls” or “ladies and gentlemen” cause harm, but very rarely get addressed. [/quote] Both “boys and girls” and “ladies and gentlemen” cause harm because they are not inclusive of the many other genders. Beyond being wrong as non-inclusive, they create a space where some individuals and their allies may not feel safe. [/quote] Be sure to teach actual stats too if your pushing this lgbtqia agenda on kids age 6.[/quote]
