  • Kevin Jennings Born: Winston-Salem, N.C
    \ POSITION: ASSISTANT DEPUTY SECRETARY FOR THE OFFICE OF SAFE AND DRUG FREE SCHOOLS NOMINEE: Kevin Jennings Born: Winston-Salem, N.C. Occupation: Executive Director, and founder, of GLSEN, the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network. Education: graduated magna cum laude from Harvard College View of Christians Addressing a church audience on March 20, 2000 in New York City — just days before "Fistgate" — GLSEN Executive Director Kevin Jennings offered a stinging (and quite intolerant) assessment of how to deal with religious conservatives: Twenty percent of people are hard-core fair-minded [pro-homosexual] people. Twenty percent are hard-core [anti-homosexual] bigots. We need to ignore the hard-core bigots, get more of the hard-core fair-minded people to speak up, and we'll pull that 60 percent [of people in the middle] … over to our side. That's really what I think our strategy has to be. We have to quit being afraid of the religious right. We also have to quit — … I'm trying to find a way to say this. I'm trying not to say, '[F---] 'em!' which is what I want to say, because I don't care what they think! [audience laughter] Drop dead! It should be noted that GLSEN and Jennings make heavy use of the words "respect" and "tolerance" in their public rhetoric and in descriptions of their programs. [ Source ] GLSEN and “Fistgate” GLSEN, which promotes homosexual clubs and the homosexual lifestyle in high schools, middle schools and grade schools and is the driving force behind the annual "Day of Silence" celebration of homosexuality “The most notorious education scandal involving homosexual activists is a GLSEN- sponsored conference that occurred on March 25, 2000, dubbed ‘Fistgate’ by conservatives.

  • In “The Tenement Windows”
    Contact: Jas Chana, Media & Communications Manager, [email protected], 646-518-3063 October 25, 2018, New York, NY— Kevin Jennings, the President of the Tenement Museum, has been named no.2 on OUTstanding’s 2018 global list of top 30 LGBT+ Public Sector Executives. Jennings was chosen by OUTStanding, a membership organization dedicated to promoting diversity & inclusion in the workplace, for his three decades of leadership in the global LGBT+ movement, which continues now in his role as Tenement Museum President. Launched in 2013, the annual list is one of several that comprise OUTstanding’s #OUTRoleModels18 campaign, which celebrates executives and leaders across the public and private sectors who are helping to make their workplace more welcoming, and who are making a significant contribution to LGBT+ inclusion outside of their workplace. The campaign is sponsored by the Financial Times. Jennings contributions to the LGBT+ movements began in 1988 when he created the first school-based Gay-Straight Alliance club, leading him to found and lead the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) for 18 years. He then served as an Assistant Secretary of Education for President Obama, after which he ran the Arcus Foundation, the world’s largest funder of LGBT rights organizations, for 5 years. In July 2017 Jennings joined the Tenement Museum, one of New York’s premier educational and cultural institutions dedicated to telling the uniquely American stories of immigrants, migrants and refuges in the ongoing creation of the United States. Since then, Jennings has launched an ambitious strategic plan aimed at dramatically increasing the institution’s reach and impact over the next five years with the goal of reshaping the national narrative about immigration at a time when the issue is front page news.

Tuesday, August 3, 2004 Signaling total capitulation to the homosexual agenda, the American Psychological Association has endorsed same-sex marriage and now calls for the complete acceptance of homosexual partnerships and homosexual adoption. In a sweeping resolution, the professional organization for psychologists provided ample evidence that the group is now practicing politics rather than psychology. Meeting in Honolulu, the APA Council of Representatives adopted the recommendation of its Working Group on Same-Sex Families and Relationships. The resolution adopted by the organization reiterates the APA’s decision in 1975 to declare that “homosexuality is neither a form of mental illness nor a symptom of mental illness.” Further, “taken together, the evidence clearly supports the position that the social stigma, prejudice, discrimination, and violence associated with not having a heterosexual orientation and the hostile and stressful social environments created thereby, adversely affect the psychological, physical,
