Parents held up signs outside the school with messages that included “No pride in grooming,” “Parental choice matters” and “Leave our kids alone.” Across the street, people had gathered for a counterprotest in support of LGBTQ+ rights and education.
LAPD and school police were on hand outside Saticoy Elementary School in North Hollywood on Friday morning as some parents protested a Pride Day assembly.
Some LGBTQ+ advocates had formed a human chain blocking the sidewalk as a group of marchers tried to pass them. “We want to reiterate that our protest is in no way an attack on the LGBTQ community,” the group wrote. “We recognize the importance of promoting equality and acceptance for all individuals.”
“I didn’t come from Armenia for this,” she said of education about LGBTQ+ people. “I came for freedom and for my children to learn about math and education, not about this. I might go back home.”
