SeattlePI.com - Seattle Public Schools to rename school after LGBTQ hero; adopt new curriculum
quote:

Seattle School Board Director Zachary DeWolf shared the the school district is committed to the following policy changes:

- All school construction projects must include one multi-stall gender-neutral restroom

- An audit of our 104 schools to identify space available for gender-neutral restroom conversion

- All curriculum adoptions (history, English language arts, etc) must explicitly incorporate LGBTQIA+ history, contributions, significant events and figures

- One school will be identified to change their school name to that of an LGBTQI+ local or national hero
Exploration and pilot of an LGBTQIA+ studies high school course

quote:

The decision to change the name of one school, which has not been specified by the district yet, comes as institutions across the United States reckon with names linked to racist histories after the death of George Floyd at the hands of law enforcement.

Amazing how when we, as a country, prop up the mentally ill we get a generation of mentally ill people.

How hard would it be to just bulldoze Seattle off into the ocean?

Well, there’s 26 in the English alphabet. That’s a starting point. If they start adding the enya Or double L from Spanish, we’re screwed.

Don’t forget “che” (ch) which is considered a letter of its own as well.
