“A library in a liberal D.C. suburb is under fire for sanctioning a drag queen story time event. The host performer encouraged children to act out and sing along to a reimagined version of ‘If You’re Happy and You Know It.’

“An announcement for a June event on the Montgomery County, Maryland Libraries website characterized them as ‘captur[ing] the imagination and play of the gender fluidity in childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models.’”

TND notes that the lyrics to the “reimagined’ song are, “If you’re a drag queen and you know it shakes your bum if you’re a drag queen and you know it shakes your bum if you’re a drag queen and you know it, and you want to show it if you’re a drag queen and you know it shakes your bum. Whoo!”

Manhattan Institute fellow Christopher Rufo recently raised the alarm on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show about the not-so-hidden agenda in the drag queen story hours.
“Many parents are wondering why an adult male is wearing women’s clothing and dancing and talking about sexual themes with other children, not only in libraries but also in schools and other public institutions.

“But they’re scared to say anything because they’re worried about offending the sensibility of many of the administrators and left-wing ideologues who police speech under the umbrella of LGBTQ tolerance.”
Rufo suggested that the intent is not just to create tolerance for LGBTQ people and lifestyles but something more sinister.

” They want to basically eliminate what they call the sexual hierarchy in favor of creating a sexual connection between adult and child, which has, of course, long been the kind of final taboo of the sexual revolution.” In other words, they want to normalize pedophilia.
Drag queen story hours have become a controversy in Pennsylvania. “Earlier this week, a Philadelphia parent came forward with an email from their first-graders public school announcing a drag queen event for the class.
“In response, the School District of Philadelphia said the Drag Queen Story Hour program has been popular vessel to ‘inspire and uplift students.’ The school District added that while an event has not been formally scheduled at the school, information about it was shared with parents to allow them to offer feedback and questions."
Drag queen story hours have become an issue in the Pennsylvania governor’s race. Republican candidate Doug Mastriano has condemned the practice, stating that he would rid the state’s education of the “woke nonsense.”
