Description

Louisiana high school teacher Jonathan Koeppel spoke out recently against the gender-identity ideology being promoted at his school. A video of his remarks at a school board meeting quickly went viral.During the meeting in April, Koeppel played an audio clip for the school board from an education app the school uses, called “BrainPop,” in which students were advised to refer to individuals as “they” if the student didn't know that individual's "preferred" pronouns. "I would have thought that this is only happening in California or in New Jersey, New York, and the more progressive—what I would call—progressive states," said Koeppel, who teaches in the St. Tammany Parish Public Schools system.Not only is the school allowing a far-left ideology to be pushed on children, but it’s also teaching students incorrect grammar, he said. Koeppel joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain why he chose to speak out and how the school board, parents, and other teachers responded to his remarks. We also cover these stories: President Joe Biden gives a speech in Tulsa, Oklahoma, on closing the racial wealth gap. Former President Barack Obama says that Biden is finishing the work of his administration. In a message for gay pride month, Biden calls out former President Donald Trump and conservative states for passing legislation that banned biological males from participating in girls and women’s sports.Enjoy the show!
