Elementary school principal promotes transgenderism

Stacey DeCorsey, principal at Excelsior Elementary School in Minnetonka’s public school district, gave a brief video update about the upcoming year on the school’s Facebook page.

DeCorsey plugged a couple books for elementary students to read over the final 40-odd days of summer, including Erica Silverman’s “Jack (Not Jackie).”

“Jack (Not Jackie)” is a picture book written for kids in kindergarten through second grade that attempts to normalize transgenderism. DeCorsey called the book a “phenomenal read” and said it’s being added to the school’s media center.

“In this heartwarming picture book, a big sister realizes that her little sister, Jackie, doesn’t like dresses or fairies — she likes ties and bugs! Will she and her family be able to accept that Jackie identifies more as ‘Jack’?” the book description reads.

“She wants to play with mud and be a super bug! Jackie also doesn’t like dresses or her long hair, and she would rather be called Jack … Readers will love this sweet story about change and acceptance,” the description adds.

“Jack (Not Jackie)” ends with the main character’s older sister and book narrator, Susan, acknowledging that “Jack” is her “brother.”

DeCorsey is far from the only school official or teacher in the Twin Cities area promoting leftist gender ideology. One Minneapolis preschool teacher posted a TikTok video in May about 3-year-old students affirming the teacher’s “trans/*****” identity.

“So today was full of little happy gender euphoria moments,” the teacher said. “I got called ‘Mr. Micah’ a lot today … and that was really heartwarming that the kids just got it.”

Back in February, Rep. Angie Craig read from the U.S. House floor a children’s book about a young girl who comes to identify herself as a boy

I don't mind it. It was actually a nice story. I don't think I'd say it promotes transgenderism more than I'd say it promotes acceptance of transgenderism. It's not like all of the characters in the story want to change their gender. Just one character who basically behaves like a tomboy and changes her name, and is eventually supported by the family. I suppose parents can choose to read it to their kids or not.

It's just a book in their library. It's not mandatory reading. I'm sure there are tons of books in their library that may not be agreeable to every single person but it doesn't make it so bad. It it were a children's book on accepting people of the Mormon faith, or a classmate that wears a Burka, would this be a big issue? I don't think it should be. The books wouldn't tell anyone that they too should wear a burka, convert to mormonism, or change their gender.

I suppose we can start banning books like Fahrenheit 451, but I seriously doubt that makes our society better.

This highlights part of the problem. The left have aggressively pushed the stance that biological *** doesn't matter. Anybody (especially if they're a conservative) who believed in gender norms was accused of being ***ist, misogynist, dominant patriarchy etc. But whenever the left talk about trans kids, they use the exact same gender norms to explain their views. She doesn't like fairies, is that what defines a female?

To be pro-trans it seems you have to hold the conflicting views of 'If you assume a girl is more likely to enjoy stereotypically feminine stuff, you're a bigot' but also 'If a girl doesn't like dresses, could be they need gender re-assignment surgery, hormone therapy.' at the same time.

We've seen just how divisive the trans agenda is, and we've also seen how divided people are on politics. I wouldn't approve of kids being given a book 'Why Trump is Great' or 'Why ***** is Great', yet we keep seeing trans books being pushed in the education system despite them being just as divisive.
