How to Explain Feminism in Terms Simple Enough for a Child


From learning about the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to reading Maya Angelou and patronizing female-owned businesses, there are a variety of ways to celebrate Women s History Month with your child. But it never hurts to lay the groundwork for a bigger conversation by beginning with the basics, and in this case, that might look like defining feminism in terms that are easy enough for an elementary or junior high school-aged child to understand.

Although a majority of American women (61 percent) identify themselves as a feminist, according to a 2020 Pew Research study, which surveyed women across all ages and education levels, confusion remains around what it means to use the identifier. We asked experts to breakdown what feminism is, what it isn t, and what it means to embrace it in their everyday lives so you can start the conversation at home as a family.

After receiving a letter from a religious rights legal organization, an Illinois school has relented and will allow a student to opt out of an explicit sexuality program.
Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy (IMSA) reportedly requires students to complete the Student Gender and Sexuality Program before graduation. Students must agree to both stay engaged and experience discomfort while participating in the program, which uses sexual language to identify sexual preferences and gender identity. 
IMSA initially refused to allow Marcail McBride to opt out of the mandated program, but First Liberty Institute attorney Keisha Russell says Illinois law gives McBride the right to do so.

High school senior faces disciplinary hearing for opting out of LGBTQ program


(Article republished from DecisionMagazine.com)
Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy (IMSA) in Aurora, Illinois, requires that all their students complete the program in order to graduate. According to the school’s “Safe Zone Facilitator Guide,” students must agree to both “stay engaged” and “experience discomfort” while participating in the program. The program also rewards those who affirm the LGBTQ community and want to serve as an “ally” with a special sticker and pin.
Marcail McBride asked the school for a religious accommodation allowing her to forego the class, but IMSA officials told her she would need to complete the program by Jan. 30 or risk disciplinary action.

UPDATE: IL School Finally Allows Girl's Religious Exemption from 'Gender and Sexuality Program'

After receiving a letter from First Liberty Institute, the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy (IMSA) in Aurora, Illinois, has reversed its position and approved senior Marcail McBride's request for a religious accommodation. Instead of completing the school's Student Gender and Sexuality Program, the school offered her an alternate assignment.

Student faces disciplinary hearing for skipping sexuality program


A high school student in Illinois will face a disciplinary hearing this week over her refusal to participate in the school’s gender and sexuality program after her parents requested that she be exempt from the requirement. 
A national religious freedom legal nonprofit sent a demand letter to the Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy in Aurora on Tuesday, arguing that the three-year residential public school unlawfully denied religious accommodations to Marcail McBride to excuse her from attending the school’s Student Gender and Sexuality Program.
According to the letter sent by two First Liberty Institute lawyers, the McBrides have “repeatedly communicated” to the school that the required program “violates Marcail’s religious beliefs.”
