Uproar Over Welsh Valley Trans Teacher’s Slide Deck

by Gerry

Elana Fishbein, the world-famous Gladwyne mom who helped make CRT part of the American lexicon  (even though many of our most educated citizens would be challenged to define what CRT is), has branched out into another field of controversy – Transgenderism.

Conservative talk show host Dom Giordano interviewed Fishbein on his show on Monday (November 21).

Referring to Welsh Valley Middle School teacher Ben Beaman, who presented a slideshow to students that explained his own transition from a woman to a man, Fishbein told Giordano, “What we are facing here and all over the country is a very aggressive push by radicals to jam down the throat into the brains of our kids – an ideology that destroys their lives. They are completely changing the structure of society and destroying the family.”

The slides in question appeared as part of a video that was posted by Libs of Tik Tok in April, this year. 

During the interview, Giordano challenged Fishbein, suggesting, “that’s what their parents want there [in Lower Merion]. That’s what this school board wants.” Fishbein responded by saying, “that’s a false claim that parents want that. Because if parents want that, why have they been fighting us tooth and nail not to disclose to the parents – what they are teaching the kids? 

According to a Delaware Valley Journal article by Linda Stein that appeared on Friday (November 18), Fishbein’s group, No Left Turn filed a Right-to-Know request to see the lesson plans used by Beaman. Lower Merion School District refused to provide the requested materials, but LMSD was overruled by the state Office of Open Records. Then the school district sued to overturn the ruling.

The case was heard by Common Pleas Court Senior Judge Joseph A. Smyth (the same Judge who ruled against LMSD in the Arthur Wolk Lawsuit). According Delaware Valley Journal, “Smythe did not rule but instead took the case under advisement.”

Family Learning To Luge

Want to Try Luge? From Lower Merion, It Starts With a Drive to Lake Placid

I was watching the Luge on NBC over the weekend. I thought it was boring, especially when juxtaposed against the more dramatic events, like curling.  The color commentator kept explaining how each “slider” was doing something slightly better or worse than the others, but to my untrained eye, they all looked the same: feet first, […]
