Are we indoctrinating kids in schools? You bet we are! No, we aren't making them gay. Just making them appreciative of the wide diversity of people.
The last time I saw a video of the song True Colors it was by the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles. This was back in October of 2010 and Dan Savage's It Gets Better project was just getting underway and this was the contribution by the chorus. It brought tears to my eyes then. I just listened to it again and shed a few more tears.
This time it is the kindergarten class of the Olympic Primary Center of the Los Angeles Unified School District. They don't say the words "gay" or "lesbian" and they have to sing along with Cyndy Lauper's recording of the song. They do have sashes in rainbow colors and show rainbow scarves along with signs of diversity and the message "Everyone is worthy of love."
