MassResistance’s Open Letter to American Parents

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

For the last ten years, I have worked for MassResistance. This international organization has been fighting the LGBT agenda targeting children and undermining parents in all of its perverse forms. We have had numerous successes, and lately we have generated considerable attention on overturning Obergefell v. Hodges and restoring natural marriage in the United States.

For the last year and a half, though, fewer parents have reached out to us, and few have been willing to take a stand to stop this agenda. Parents across the country want to focus on elections instead of pro-family activism.

Based on our extensive work with MassResistance, I have found that such a strategy is doomed to fail. Elected officials too often move to the center, hide their intentions, or just give up on their campaign promises. Why? The superintendent, school administration, staff, and labor unions push back on any reforms. They don’t want controversy or conflict to conflict with their narrow interests: higher salaries, enriched pensions and benefits, and an easier consolidation of power and prestige. Worse yet, many school districts are stuffed with professional and classified staff committed to every woke LGBT agenda item, thoroughly indoctrinated in the university system to get their professional credentials and master's degrees.

School board members, even the bravest of them all, will face an uphill battle trying to change this culture of corruption in their local schools. Citizen activism—MassResistance — is more essential than ever in taking back our schools and making education great again. The surest way to stop the spread of LGBT indoctrination and abuse in the schools is to force school districts to get back to basics and get back to educating our youth to be great thinkers, leaders, and creators for the future. 

One way this can be done is by reporting to the federal authorities any pro-transgender and pro-DEI policies in your local school systems and state education departments. The hope is that the federal monies would be withdrawn from that school district or the entire state. 

We must expose teachers and staff who push LGBT indoctrination in the schools.

Pornographic books in a school’s curriculum or library may also fall under President Trump’s Executive Order against the promotion of “gender” issues in schools. Likewise, these materials can be reported in the hope that federal funds will be withdrawn.

School GSA (Gay Straight Alliance) clubs should be shut down. The issue is not free speech. Since the clubs focus on sex and gender, they violate Trump’s orders to clean this material out of schools. Additionally, these clubs can be disruptive to the learning environment.

MassResistance is committed to organizing parents in any locale to hold standouts exposing these violations. We can arrange for local news coverage and promote your information on social media.

But we have to wonder: what has happened to the parents now?

Parents who have reached out to MassResistance for help start getting cold feet as soon as we outline the steps needed to take on the LGBT left in their local schools.

The excuses we have heard from parents are staggering:

  1. “I know some of the teachers on campus, and I don’t want to offend them.”

  2. “We own a business in the community, and we don’t want people to start boycotting us.”

  3. “MassResistance is too confrontational. We want a kinder approach to getting our way.”

  4. “I am worried about retaliation against my kid in the classroom. What’s going to happen to them if I speak up?”

All of the concerns and excuses from parents can be summed up with one word: fear.

Parents, are you going to let fear of the educational establishment and the local press dictate whether you step up to protect your children? How can this be, after all the work so many of you have done already to start cleaning up and exposing the moral rot in your children’s schools?

The other problem we have been running into is that they think they can approach school administrators, teachers, and other staff from a position of compromise. Parents don’t realize that school officials, especially the elected school board members, are either cowardly or complicit when it comes to the kind of garbage they subject students to in the classroom.

Too many parents still believe that school operators are on their side when in reality, they are running operations for their own benefit (see my comments above) and with no regard for the students. Why else would they strive to keep secrets from them? 

And if you think that is not the case, think again.

Four years ago, MassResistance published an extensive exposé about the Ludlow School District in Massachusetts. The school librarian, herself one of the wacky non-binary/lesbian transgenders which Libs of Tik Tok loves to mock, was grooming and transitioning children to take on false names and pretend to be the opposite sex. The librarian even arranged the students to form a suicide pact with other students! This egregious conduct would have gone unnoticed and unchallenged, except for the bravery of one of the teachers, Bonnie Manchester, who sounded the alarm on these abuses and demanded that the school district put a stop to all of it.

Despite all the obstacles in our way, and thanks to our outreach to the community, working with parents and friends of the teacher, we were able to oust the superintendent and the librarian. Massachusetts is one of the most tyrannical, pro-LGBT states in the country, and yet we could succeed there. What makes you think that we cannot help you in your community?

MassResistance is here to help every parent we can. We want to win against the LGBT onslaught abusing children in the public schools. But we cannot do it without your help. Even with President Trump back in the Oval Office, the fight is far from over. Children across the country are still being harmed by LGBT indoctrination, and it won’t go away without a sustained MassResistance!
