Too Raw for Radio: Natasha Crain Reveals What Some Want To Do To Kids
WARNING: THIS EPISODE IS NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNG AUDIENCES. Is Drag Queen Story Hour really about tolerance, diversity, and acceptance or is something more sinister going on? Natasha Crain returns to unpack the sobering final chapter of her new book, 'When Culture Hates You', that investigates the evils of the "sexual liberation of children" (SLC) and the subtle ways that kids (and the people who raise them) are being targeted. During this midweek podcast episode, Frank and Natasha will answer questions like:Who are the founders of SLC and how has their "research" infiltrated academia?What is the ultimate goal of Queer Theory?What is "childhood innocence" and why should anyone who cares for children read the research article 'Drag Pedagogy'?What are the three pivotal events in history that led to the SLC movement we see today?What did Sigmund Freud think was the ultimate purpose to life and how did he influence this disturbing movement?How should you respond if someone accuses you of being transphobic?Should we support sex-reassignment surgery if it makes some people feel happy?Falsely billed as "family friendly", Drag Queen story hours are growing in popularity all over the country.
