Florida communities are rallying to protest the Parental Rights in Education Act — or, as it’s better known, the “Don’t Say Gay” bill — which will go into effect on July 1.
The American Civil Liberties Union and Families for Safe Schools were among a long list of supporters standing with LGBTQ+ students and families. And, while Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ goal is to silence their messages, the families, communities and organizations protesting the new law appear to be growing bolder.
The family of the late Walt Disney, founder and creator of the Disney empire, are considered conservative and private, but they recently expressed disappointment over Florida’s new bill. Charlee Corra, a Disney heir, is transgender. Her father, Roy P. Disney, and his wife are supporters of the LGBTQ+ community and resolute to not let this happen elsewhere.
