The conference teaching teachers how to queer your kids
Know what the teachers are learning and you'll know what's going on in the classroom.
My work is 100% funded by you, ordinary people who want to understand what’s going on in the world and fight back against the cultural revolution we’re in.
If you appreciate my work, please consider subscribing at $5/month or $50/year. You’ll get access to all my articles behind the paywall, and other exclusive perks.
Prefer to listen? I recorded this article as an episode of the Actively Unwoke Podcast and provided additional commentary:
One of the most overlooked sources of information regarding what is going on in the public schools is also the most pervasively available: Teacher training programs and conferences.
Maybe it’s the industrial/organizational psychologist in me, but it just makes sense to look at the training they receive. Most people don’t want to go to these types of professional development trainings and conferences, much less look at them when they are not required reading. And that’s why it’s one of the most effective things the woke left can engage in to push their ideology into the schools.
So, you must look.
It’s all public information.
You can FOIA the slides and how much the trainers were paid.
They do a lot of it online, which makes it easy to find the records of it and even infiltrate it and watch it when it’s live.
And, most importantly, anything that teachers learn in these types of activities will make its way into the classroom and impact your kids.
If you watch the trainings, you know what to look for. That way, you won’t be surprised when it shows up.
Such is the case with the Educator Institute for Equity and Justice.
A Queer Endeavor is a department within the University of Colorado at Boulder’s School of Education.
That means it’s publicly funded by the taxpayers of Colorado.
They openly brag that their mission is to make things “unworkable” on their home page:
Remember, the four goals of the woke left are always and forever the same:
Gain as much power as possible
Destabilize the system
Attack capitalism
Usher in their Marxist utopia
Everything they do is designed to achieve one or more of these goals.
I’d say making education “unworkable” is a pretty good way to use your positions of power as teachers and administrators to destabilize the system.
According to their website, A Queer Endeavor has worked with over 15,000 educators and youth-serving adults:
They promote curriculum like “Gender-Inclusive Biology” that teaches kids that nature is queer:
And they put on an annual conference called the Educator Institute for Equity and Justice:
I happen to have a schedule for the 2021 edition of this conference. Let me walk you through some of the presentation titles:

Fight back against the woke and support my work.
I believe the woke - on the left and the right - are an existential threat to our values as Americans. Some of them know it, most of them are just useful innocents. Regardless, fighting back against this woke cultural revolution is my full-time job. I’m dedicated to exposing the woke ideology in our country, helping people to understand what’s going on, and providing spaces for non-woke people to connect, support each other, and plan ways to fight back.
Here’s how you can help.

You could not have timed this more perfectly. I am writing a book chapter about the harm of DEI and I need tis information! I have been to too many teacher conventions (I have PhD in Teaching and Learning) and I stopped going when every keynote and every session focused on social justice, all white people are evil, and "diversity"--which isn't diversity at all. I need it so much that I subscribed--even though I'm supposed to be saving. It's worth it.
Just wanted to post a win 🏆 for my immediate family based on information you share that I have been sharing with them. My sister has 5 kids ages 22 to 10. She has pulled them from public altogether and is employing the older siblings and herself to teach the 4 school aged. My brother and his school teacher wife have moved to a private Christian school, where she is now employed (with a paycut, but doesn't mind) and my niece and nephew are no longer a part of the public system. Now, to work on my husband's side. Thank you for your time.
