First I want to thank all of you so much for over 300 signatures so far. it means a lot and I'm excited to keep pushing for 500 signatures.
second I want to delve further into who the author of this hate book is by revealing their ties to an organization called Prager U.
I would like to clarify that I understand that in a court of law people are not guilty by association. I also do not believe that anyone has to know that they are promoting hate to do just that, someone can have the best intentions and still be used by hate advocates and groups to push an agenda.
So, here I have three sources for you today, the primary source is from the southern poverty law centre which discusses Prager U's connections to right-wing extremism and racist ideology. SPLC is well known and respected for its work fighting against racism and other forms of oppression, I highly recommend keeping up to date on their publications.
next, I want to share a report from GLAAD which details numerous times, including an episode hosted by Shrier herself, where Prager U has promoted a variety of anti-LGBT propaganda.

and third I would like to share a very well-produced video on youtube that deep dives into exactly how the propaganda in Prager U works, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM7BgrddY18
I want to acknowledge here how these connections between Shrier's anti-trans narratives and the white-supremacist narratives at Prager U are closely related.
This is a lot of material to dump on you all at once, and there is more I would like to present to help everyone better understand just how dangerous this book is.
Trans Rights are Human Rights and parents deserve the truth to best raise their children. Maybe someday when we have abolished the kind of hate that Shrier is promoting this book can circulate as a historical record of hate, but it can not be today.
