Minnesota Teacher Praises Transgender Activist, Sex Worker In Front Of Middle Schoolers

A Minnesota middle school showed 11-to-13-year-olds a video of a teacher praising a transgender activist and sex worker. 

At Minnetonka Middle School East, Language Arts teacher Colin Perucco posts videos called “Perucco’s Person of the Day.” On Friday, Feb. 19, Perruco’s “person of the day” was Marsha P. Johnson who was a transgender activist and drag queen who worked as a sex worker. Johnson also played a role in the controversial Stonewall riots. Johnson was born a biological man and later transitioned to become “gender non-conforming.”
