(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Midwestern teachers undertook an online training session last week during which they learned to identify potential transgender students and help them pursue transition without the knowledge of their parents, the Post Millennial reported.

The online workshop, which included 30 teachers from several midwest states, was put on by Midwest and Plains Equity Assistance Center.
According to its website, the MAP is “one of four regional Equity Assistance Centers, funded by the United States Department of Education under Title IV of the 1964 Civil Rights Act.”
During the “equity session,” public school teachers from Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio and other states discussed ways to be “subversive” to anti-grooming laws by adopting their own personal “code of ethics.”
For example, Angel Nathan, the session’s host, said the focus of the workshop was to review the new laws and find ways around them.
The teachers discussed ways to “remedy the marginalizing effects and disrupt problematic policies.”
According to Kimberly Martin, the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion coordinator for Royal Oak Schools in Michigan, activist organizations were plotting ways to use federal money to ensure that the sexual information and advice that adults give to schoolchildren be hidden from their parents.
“We’re working with our record-keeping system so that certain screens can’t be seen by the parents … if there’s a nickname in there we’re trying to hide,” Martin told attendees of the conference.
MAP has held numerous other conferences wherein school administrators and teachers collaborate to teach young children about sexual orientations and preferences.
For example, the organization plans to hold the second part of a prior meeting, “Partners in Practice: Athletic Directors Creating Intentional Safety for Trans Student Athletes.”
The organization also advocates racially charged ideologies such as critical race theory, including conferences for the promotion of “anti-racist learning environments” and for “students with disabilities at the intersection of race, sex, national origin, and religion.”
