RFRA is a discriminatory act

April 18, 2015 by Kassandra Garcia Leave a Comment

By Kassandra Garcia |Staff Writer| The state of Indiana has been faced with national criticism due to their implementation of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA). In my opinion, the act creates a huge set back in equality because it allows people to justify discriminatory acts as religious choice, but is plain bigotry. When I first heard about the RFRA being enacted, I thought it was a joke. How is it still possible to allow this type of backwards thinking? This law offers no protection for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) community because it allows the possibility of discrimination. Indiana’s Legislature and Governor Michael Pence put … [Read more...] about RFRA is a discriminatory act

March 7, 2015 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Shane Burrell |Sports Editor| & Loydie Burmah |Opinions Editor| Queer collegiate athletes can risk their professional careers by coming out. Queer college athletes have a higher risk of risking their professional sports careers by coming out due to the lack of support from the professional sports community. Coming out is an ongoing process, and for the queer athlete revealing one’s true identity does not stop in the locker room. “Homophobia is a salient theme within both collegiate and non-collegiate male athletic subcultures,” wrote researchers Kenneth B. Muir and Trina Seitz in their participant-observational study on machismo, misogyny, and homophobia within … [Read more...] about Queer athletes deserve recognition

Gov. Brown adds LGBT courses to state classrooms

February 17, 2012 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Courtney Sims |Staff Writer| California is the first state to require public schools to educate K-12 students on the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community, through required textbooks and mandated courses. In July 2011 Gov. Jerry Brown signed off on the historical law that requires California’s public schools K-12 to integrate LGBT into school curriculum. In a statement made by Gov. Brown, he believes "history should be honest." California politicians like Sen. Mark Leno are very pleased with Gov. Brown’s enthusiasm of the bill and foresee other states following in the same path. "This is definitely a step forward, and I’m hopeful that other states will … [Read more...] about Gov.
