The Queering of the American Child: How a New School Religious Cult Poisons the Minds and Bodies of Normal Kids Kindle Edition
American children are learning a lot about sex, "gender," and sexuality in their schools. District administrators, teachers, and even librarians are obsessed with pushing inappropriate topics onto kids, all in the name of fostering "inclusion." Children today learn that they were "assigned a sex at birth" and can change their sex or "gender" at will. Kids are no longer learning to read, write, or do math, but they are learning how to be "radical gender" activists. Meanwhile, school districts keep parents in the dark, hiding critical information about the health and well-being of their children from them.
American education wasn't like this forty years ago. The cult of Queer Theory changed everything. Inspired by the religious teachings of Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, and Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick, Queer Activists "queered" American education. Schools are no longer teaching children how to flourish in society—they are initiating children into the cult of Queer Theory. Once initiated, children "experience the queer" as they adopt a new cult identity and embark on the destructive path of social and medical "transition."
In this book, The Queering of the American Child, Logan Lancing and James Lindsay explain what Queer Theory is, where it comes from, how it got into schools, and what it's doing to children nationwide. The cult of Queer Theory preys on children, and it must be understood if we are ever to stop the madness.
Logan Lancing is an author, speaker, and the founder of itsnotinschools.com. In his first book, The Woke Warpath: How Marxists Use Race and Gender to Break America, Lancing exposed the insidious ideas behind the radical movements to defund the police, radicalize children in classrooms, and trample the rights of women. He is known for his public lectures on Critical Race Theory, Culturally Relevant Pedagogy, and Queer Theory. Lancing’s website itsnotinschools.com, explains what these “woke” theories are, where they come from, and how they show up in children’s classrooms nationwide.
James Lindsay is an author, internationally recognized speaker, and the founder and president of New Discourses. He is best known for his relentless criticism of "Woke" ideology, the now-famous Grievance Studies Affair, and his bestselling books including Race Marxism and Cynical Theories, which has been translated into over twenty languages. In addition to writing and speaking, including at the Oxford Union, Library of Congress, and European Parliament, Lindsay is the voice of the New Discourses Podcast and has been a guest on prominent media outlets including The Joe Rogan Experience, Glenn Beck, Fox News, and NPR.

I will admit, I didn’t like what was revealed in this book. I found it troubling to say the least. Kids are innocent, and it seems they are being used by activists for their agendas, some of which are radical. I suspect some educators have been dupped or pressured to teach in the way activists have spelled out and will possibly have a paradigm shift after reading this book.
The concept of Queer Theory as a cult is presented, and it is a compelling point.
Logan Lancing is articulate in his book, but it will be hard for some people to read. I would have loved a glossary of terms at the end and key points or chapter summaries to help me understand the complexity of the material. But I had to start somewhere, and I am glad I read the book. If you value exercising your critical thinking skills, this book will be great for you.
Final chapter, the conclusion, provides some hope and things you can do if you are not a fan of Queer Theory after learning about it. Perhaps more hope sprinkled in before the conclusion would have been a good idea, but at least there was some hope offered.
Despite my few suggestions, this book is worthy of 5 stars for its potential to impact the reader and stimulate discussion and possibly educational reform.

I think it’s a must read and know what I am asking as someone who does love reading except for a purpose. My purpose is to help kids change their lives for the better. I have come to recognize over 4 years there is a very intentional movement to do the opposite.
I can tell you the exact moment the red flag went up. I was doing paperwork and overheard a coworker who was sitting in a training on LGB issues (the rest of the letters hadn’t even been added just 7-8 years ago) asked this question of the expert: “Wow, this is great information. Where did you get it?” The facilitator response was all I needed to hear, “The kids I work with told me.” You can’t make it up, but in all honesty those who created the path of critical, gender and queer theory did as well. This book shines a light on the how, who, what and the why.

After stepping away from "education", I started seeing changes in counselor education, teacher education, and my own family related to separation because of political propaganda.
Beneath Sheep's Clothing changed my life. My blinders that were sadly attached to my eyes through my college education, were removed. I thought I was helping kids. I thought I was advocating for them to their parents. I thought I was doing the right thing but I was just THEIR pawn.
This book shows you exactly how easily adults were tricked into CRT and Queer Theory. How they used those of us with a kind heart to deliver their evil messages. If we were manipulated this easily, imagine these poor kids that are just characters in the game. These youth, who are forever changing their bodies and minds, only to be discarded or worse.

It is more like a rant of generalizations and accusations.
Lacking in depth. Preaching to the choir.
Anybody not yet convinced will remain unconvinced.
It remains for another person to write the book that needs to be written.
