Walkout 2 Learn: Florida Students Walk Out of School to Protest DeSantis Education Policies
From TeenVogue.com April 20, 2023:
“Florida students are taking their education into their own hands…
In lieu of taking a quintessential college spring-break trip, a group of youth organizers with Walkout 2 Learn went to Sarasota, Florida, for a weeklong brain dump before the group’s upcoming day of action. From morning to night, the 12 youth activists sorted through data from Florida high schools, Instagram pages, and other social media accounts hoping to identify young Floridians eager to help their cause: a youth-led demonstration on Friday, April 21, to call out state lawmakers for their attacks on student rights.
Florida’s Republican-led state legislature and governor have passed multiple pieces of legislation that censor conversations in the classroom about gender, sexuality, and race, stripping rights from the very students the state’s schools are meant to serve.”

How a Campaign Against Transgender Rights Mobilized Conservatives
From the NYTimes, April 16, 2023:
How a Campaign Against Transgender Rights Mobilized Conservatives
“When the Supreme Court declared a constitutional right to same-sex marriage nearly eight years ago, social conservatives were set adrift.
The ruling stripped them of an issue they had used to galvanize rank-and-file supporters and big donors. And it left them searching for a cause that — like opposing gay marriage — would rally the base and raise the movement’s profile on the national stage.
“We knew we needed to find an issue that the candidates were comfortable talking about,” said Terry Schilling, the president of American Principles Project, a social conservative advocacy group. “And we threw everything at the wall.”
What has stuck, somewhat unexpectedly, is the issue of transgender identity, particularly among young people. Today, the effort to restrict transgender rights has supplanted same-sex marriage as an animating issue for social conservatives at a pace that has stunned political leaders across the spectrum. It has reinvigorated a network of conservative groups, increased fund-raising and set the agenda in school boards and state legislatures.”
