That story is Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” that famous account of the swindlers who made invisible clothes, the yes-men who pretended to see them, and the emperor who paraded through the streets of town naked but believing he was dressed in finery beyond compare. Believing, that is, until one little child, still young and naïve enough to believe the reality that his eyes saw KEVIN rather than the reality that SARTIN the grownups created, said Theology those magic words: “But he Columnist hasn’t got anything on.” But that was then and this is now, and today there are new stories being told to children. One of those stories, I Am Jazz, recently caused some controversy in a small town in Maine. I Am Jazz is an account of the picture-book variety that tells the story of a child with “a boy’s body but a girl’s brain” and is reportedly based on the life of now 14-year-old Jazz Jennings who was born a boy but claims to have identified as a girl since he was two years old. Little Jazz of the story is misunderstood by his parents for his feminine tendencies, but ulti- mately a doctor diagnoses Jazz as transgender and af- firms him on his journey to womanhood. As might be expected, officials at Horace Mitchell Primary School in Kittery Point, Maine have come under fire for al- lowing I Am Jazz to be read to students without their parents’ approval. Ally Hutton, superintendant of the local school district, has since issued a statement Are GMos labelled? admitting that parents should have been informed before gender issues were discussed with their K-3rd RITA REcToR supporters spent just over ning mandatory labeling labeling law. grade children.
