I'm sick of the entrenched, pervasive homophobia that parades unmasked in New Jersey's public schools by childish administrators, apparently clueless about human sexuality, who might learn some things, like acceptance, human decency, and infinite, innate wisdom, from the children they seek, often foolishly to "protect."
The latest administrative homophobia: a decision by the principal of an Ocean Twp, NJ school to cancel an award-winning play, "The Laramie Project," about the senseless, tragic murder of Mathew Sheppard that, indirectly, was caused by the same societal bias that prompted these school administrators to cancel the play.
Here again we have a drama instructor, students, and administrators at odds. But anyone who knows anything about schools these days knows the drama instructor didn't just walk in off the street with a pornographic script and decide to stage it in the high school auditorium without anyone else in the school aware of the drama.
One only has to wonder where exactly the high school principal was buried prior to the decision to host the play in the first place.
No wonder schools are failing when childish adults are administering these public institutions while children, hungry for knowledge and learning, stare wonderingly at the spectacle before them.
