A controversial Seattle teacher allegedly told students that identifying as “straight” is offensive. He even scolded some of his male students for being a “product of the patriarchy that teaches young boys not to care.” It resulted in a parent filing a complaint with Chief Sealth High School. In defending the teacher, Seattle Public Schools (SPS) offered what appears to be a verifiably false statement to the media.

Tenth-grade Ethnic Studies World History teacher and self-identified communist Ian Golash asked students to complete a “Social Identity Wheel” worksheet, according to the parent, who asked for anonymity. It asks students to explain their various identities, including racial, ethnic, gender, socio-economic status, physical, emotional, or developmental disabilities, and sexual orientation. The worksheet is intended to tell students that their identities determine whether they receive unearned privilege or oppression.

The parent’s 15-year-old son labeled himself “straight.” Golash took issue with that word “because it implies that to not be straight is to be ‘crooked’ which could have a negative connotation.”

‘Straight’ is offensive to Ian Golash

The student’s mother shared an email thread with The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH. In it, she complains about the comment to Golash and the school’s principal, Ray Garcia-Morales.

“When filling out a Social Identity Wheel, he (her son) was told that if he identifies as straight that he needed to pick a term that was less offensive. It is completely inappropriate to dictate what terms a student can and cannot use to identify themselves with,” the mom wrote in the September 24, 2023 email.

Golash said he did not target her son with his comment. He did, however, admit to saying something similar to the entire classroom.

In the email response to the mother, Golash allegedly told the parent that he “stated explicitly that I was not going to tell them how they should identify except to explain the difference between race, ethnicity and nationality.” But he did cast aspersions on identifying as “straight.”

“Because I think language has power and that it shapes the culture that we live in, I did say to the class, in response to a student, that I do not use the term ‘straight’ because it implies that to not be straight is to be ‘crooked’ which could have a negative connotation,” Golash wrote. “But, again stated that I am not interested in telling them how they should identify and that the wheel they are completing is for their own reflection, not for me to assess.”

A very contrived position

Golash taking offense to the term “straight” in this way may be the only such example in the country. It’s a common and accepted term.

Chief Sealth High School has a Gay-Straight Alliance Club. Even GLAAD (formerly the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) uses “straight” as an alternative descriptor for heterosexuals. The term “straight-ally” is still used by LGBT groups.

The contrived issue came up in a 2015 Washington Post column about etiquette. The readers (not Golash) asked if the term “straight” is offensive. Steven Petrow (the author of “Steven Petrow’s Complete Gay & Lesbian Manners”) responded by saying he’s never been asked that before. He concluded it was neither offensive nor a slur.

“I’ve never heard of a gay person saying they were offended by the use of straight. Do some straight folks find it problematic? I think you are saying that you are and, if so, I’d like to know why,” he wrote.

‘Product of the patriarchy that teaches young boys not to care’

The parent also claimed in the email that Golash shamed her son during a conversation about Florida banning left-wing classes with critical race theory indoctrination. Her son had missed the day the class watched a video about the topic, and told Golash he didn’t know why the state legislature forwarded the ban, according to the mom.

“I’m told that rather than converse about the topic and provide him with information and an actual answer, he was told that he was a ‘product of the patriarchy that teaches young boys not to care,'” the mom wrote in the email. “You missed an opportunity here to teach your student about current events and instead shamed him for being a male. To assume that he’s being raised in a patriarchal household is a very mistaken one.”

Again, Golash disputes some specifics but admits to bringing up the issue.

“My response about patriarchy was not directed at one student, it was connected to discussions of systems of power that we had been having in the previous few days and the behavior of several boys in the class,” he wrote, according to the email. He did not dispute saying the quote the mother provided.

The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH asked Golash if the emails properly depict what he sent to the parent and if he wanted to offer additional context. He did not respond.

It’s part of a political agenda

Golash focuses a portion of his curriculum on issues around gender identity. The same parent previously complained that Golash failed her son on a quiz for correctly saying men cannot get pregnant and that women do not have penises. The mom eventually pulled her son from his class.

“Mr. Golash has introduced many controversial topics into the classroom and instead of inviting open, constructive and truthful conversations, he provides biased resources that only aid in pushing his own ideological agendas,” the mom told The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH. “In this particular instance, he tried to persuade the language the students used in an attempt to censor them. Mr. Golash instructs his students what to think and not how to think. This in no way provides identity-safe classrooms that allow students to feel visible and valued.”

She says her son started to “self-censor … due to Mr. Golash’s intolerant teaching tactics.” Only after this incident, she said Golash accused her son of being disruptive and disengaged. She called it “retaliatory in nature.”

In the email thread, Golash did accuse her son and other classmates of unruly behavior. He said his frustration with their alleged behavior, “resulted in words I said that day that I might not phrase in the same way today.”

Seattle Public Schools is mostly silent

According to a screenshot of an email shared with The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH, the district is investigating the two separate complaints against Ian Golash.

First, the school is reviewing the quiz that the student failed for taking objectively true positions: Men can’t get pregnant and women do not have penises. Second, according to an email, Chief Sealth principal Garcia-Morales told parents there was an investigation into a separate incident where antisemitic curriculum was taught to students.

Seattle Public Schools (SPS) won’t say much about Golash, including how far the investigation has progressed. They also would not comment for this story, neither confirming nor denying Golash’s purported communication with the parent. Even if they did comment, they’ve previously misled the media with a statement.

Misleading the media and public

When The Jason Rantz Show on KTTH exclusively reported the “men can get pregnant” quiz, the story ignited a firestorm of criticism and ridicule towards Golash and the district. SPS appeared to give out the same statement to multiple outlets, but added an extra detail to Fox News.

In the original report, the mother complained that Golash and another teacher engaged in name-calling. One teacher allegedly called her son “f****d and racist,” and Golash allegedly made the comment about being a “product of the patriarchy that teaches young boys not to care about anything.” SPS denied the claims when asked by Fox News.

“Claims that the student was called names have not been reported to SPS. We have confirmed with the school’s principal that this is the first reference to any name-calling,” a spokesperson told Fox News.

The statement appears to be false.

In a February 2, 2023 email, the mother’s husband emailed a teacher and principal Garcia Morales. In it, he complained of conduct against his son. He wrote that his son told him the teacher explained to the classroom, “If you’re white, that’s f****d up and racist.” The principal was also on the email over Golash’s comments about the patriarchy.

SPS would not say why they told Fox News that my report was the first reference to any name-calling.

Thanks for tagging me most unexpectedly @acklum & @petrow to list five songs I’m obsessed with just now.

Go ask Alice by Grace Slick and The Jefferson Airplane has been an ear worm in my head for a while now. 

A Touch of Gray by The Grateful Dead and

Uncle John’s Band by The Grateful Dead  pop up regularly

Minnie The Moocher by Cab Calloway.

The Pink Panther and A Shot in the Dark by Henri Mancini

.

I know I put The Pink Panther way down the list but I probably play it more than anything because it never ends until I’m tired of it and it fits in so nicely when I’m skulking around in a store trying to remember what I’m shopping for.

Who is/are your writer-crush(es)?

Haha this is an interesting ask. There are so many amazing writers here that inspire me deeply! I really don't have nearly enough time to read them all. I don't know that any of them qualify as my crushes per say, but I admire and respect all of them. I always fall a little in love with anyone who has a way with words. 😉 I will list a few below who I can remember off the top of my head (please don't take this as a complete list, since there are so many that I am sure I will forget! I hate these kinds of things because my working memory isn't always very good.)

CINTA TERAKHIR BABA DUNJA

Penulis : Alina Bronsky

Penerbit : Gramedia Pustaka Utama

Jumlah halaman : 159

***

Apresiasi setinggi-tingginya untuk bu Harisa Permatasari yang telah menterjemahkan buku ini, asli buu terjemahannya enak banget untuk dibaca. Karena menerjemahkan itu tidak mudah, mereka yang menerjemahkan enggak sekadar menerjemahkan tapi membuat karya baru. Kalo penerjemahnya enggak paham kepenulisan, asal terjemah aja, pasti enggak bakal enak untuk dibaca. Karena menerjemahkan juga termasuk seni. Selalu kagum dengan para penterjemah yang tetap bisa menerjemahkan tanpa menghilangkan esensi dari setiap kalimat. Banyak juga buku terjemahan yang jadi kurang enak dibaca karena penterjemahnya kaku. Padahal aslinya itu buku bagus.

CINTA TERKAHIR BABA DUNJA

Jangan tertipu sama judulnya ya, buku ini mengisahkan kondisi kota Tschernowo setelah insiden nuklir tahun 1986 yang ditinggal oleh para penghuninya. Baba Dunja menjadi penghuni terakhir yang meninggalkan kota tersebut dan menjadi penghuni pertama yang kembali ke kota tersebut.

Baba Dunja mengisi hari-harinya di kota Tschernowo dengan melakukan berbagai aktivitas seperti sebelum insiden nuklir tersebut terjadi. Ia bertemu dengan likuidator, ilmuwan, ahli kesehatan yang datang ke kota tersebut dengan memakai baju pelindung serta membawa alat yang selalu berbunyi selama mereka memasuki kota tersebut. Ia diwawancara, diukur tekanan darahnya dan diperiksa tubuhnya oleh alat yang selalu berbunyi. Manusia-manusia berpelindung tersebut juga menolak teh rosemarry dan acara ketimun yang disajikan oleh Baba Dunja.

"Pekerjaanku mengajariku bahwa manusia selalu dan pada akhirnya melakukan apa yg ingin mereka lakukan. Mereka meminta nasihat, tapi sebenarnya tidak menginkan pendapat orang lain. Dari setiap kalimat, mereka hanya menyaring yg ingin mereka dengar." Baba Dunja, jadi Ia tidak keberatan menerima kedatangan orang-orang berpelindung yang setiap hari hanya ingin melihat kondisi penghuni Tschernowo.

Beberapa bulan setelah Baba Dunja menetap di Tschernowo penghuni lainnya berdatangan dan menempati rumah-rumah kosong tanpa perlu takut penghuninya akan kembali lagi. Marja, Boris, Petrow dan pasangan suami istri Gavrilow.

Baba Dunja memiliki anak yang bernama Irina yang sekarang berpaspor Jerman, seorang dokter bedah untuk militer Jerman. Dan Alexej yang keberadaannya tidak diketahui. Serta seorang cucu bernama Laura, anak dari Irina. Baba Dunja berkomunikasi dengan Irina dan Laura melalui surat-surat yang akan menjadi teka-teki selanjutnya. Laura mengirimkan surat kepada Baba Dunja yang Ia tidak mengerti menggunakan bahasa apa.

Baba Dunja dan penghuni lainnya berkebun untuk mencukupi kebutuhan makannya, di Tschernowo tidak ada sambungan listrik, air hanya didapat dari sumur di ujung jalan perumahan mereka. Transportasi hanya dapat diakses di ujung jalan bekas pabrik permen.

Kehidupan Baba Dunja berjalan seperti biasa sebelum datangnya seseorang yang menetap di sana dengan membawa anak kecil, mereka pasti tau, membawa anak kecil ke kota Tschernowo berarti mengantarkannya kepada kematian.

Baba Dunja dan penghuni Tschernowo menjalani kehidupan penjara dan persidangan dengan tuduhan membunuh seseorang yang membawa anak kecil tersebut. Apakah Baba Dunja akan selamat dari hukuman? Lalu bagaimana surat dari Laura yang belum dapat dibaca oleh Baba Dunja? Apakah Baba Dunja akan kembali ke Tschernowo? Yak! Temukan jawabannya di buku ini!

Week 5, October 4

After deciding last week that I wanted to educate people that could potentially benefit from using psychedelics medicinally and therapeutically, I decided to start by taking a deeper dive into individual psychedelics. This week, I focused my research on psilocybin (shroomies 🍄). Here is what a found....

Scholarly Research:

Predictors of attitudes toward psychedelics among psychologists in the USA by Jason B. Luoma

This article discusses how the legalization of psychedelic-assisted therapy becomes more likely to happen. This is an urge to open psychiatrists' minds to the potential benefits of psychedelic-assisted therapies. In this study, they "examined associations between individual difference variables and psychologists’ attitudes toward psychedelics, including age, gender, region, religious affiliation, personal experience with psychedelics, friends’ or loved ones’ experiences with psychedelics, level of training in addiction treatment, and knowledge of psychedelics", and the purpose of this was to help inform psychiatrists of the benefits of psychedelics.

Although this one isn't specifically about psilocybin, when I found it this week I figured it couldn't hurt to include it. I think this article Is an interesting perspective because it is urging psychiatrists to see the benefits and become open to using psychedelic therapy in their practice when it becomes legalized. This will be a great POV to add to my paper, and I like the fact that the audience can see not only the potential benefits to patients but also call psychologists to action.

Psychedelic Research and Psilosybin Therapy by Johns Hopkins University

This article talks about the timeline of their research in psilocybin therapy and mentions the benefits of psilocybin therapy for patients with treatment-resistance mental health crises. Johns Hopkins University is currently the leading psychedelic research center in the US, so there is tons of valuable information here. They say in the article that there is "a naturally occurring psychedelic compound found in 'magic mushrooms,' allows it to penetrate the central nervous system and the scientific and medical experts are just beginning to understand its effects on the brain and mind and its potential as therapeutics for mental illnesses". This article takes us through Johns Hopkins University's past timeline of psychedelic research, and shows us how much progress they have made.

I think this article is super valuable because it is from such a reputable source, and it gives tons of valuable information. I finally got a glimpse into how psychedelics actually enter the body and help treat mental health issues, which I haven't discovered in my research prior to this. I'm interested to use Johns Hopkins University as a source for further research so I can find out how psychedelics actually work. It is a newer field of exploration so there isn't much research on it yet.

Psilocybin as mental health therapy? Here’s what I found. by Steven Petrow

This article talks about the author and how he began to look into psychedelic therapy to help him with anxiety and depression. He talks about the dangers he was warned about, and how he had to slowly stop taking antidepressants before he tripped so he could feel the effects. He then talks about tips to have a safe trip when you're in a guided setting.

I think this is super helpful, as it provides resources to participate in clinical trials, and warns against the potential risks, while also explaining the benefits. I also like that this is a first-hand account and almost feels like a diary because we go through the author's journey from when his interest in psychedelics was first sparked, to his first trip.

“Magic Mushrooms,” Psilocybin and Mental Health by University Hospitals

This article goes over how psilocybin research is increasing, Johns Hopkins University being the #1 research center for psychedelics in the world, the benefits for mental health issues like addiction, eating disorders, OCD, etc. It assures the audience that psilocybin is virtually never lethal, and "extremely safe" when taken in administered settings. It also goes into depth about their findings with each mental health issue that they talk about by stating specific studies that have been done with psilocybin in relation to each mental health issue.

This is a great perspective to take into account because it talks about the actual research and studies being done, as well as the benefits. I really enjoyed how they focused on anorexia for a good about of time because that one hits close to home, and I think this might be something that I'm interested in focusing on. This leads me to my creative research for this week.

Scholarly Research Spreadsheet:

Creative Research:

I was inspired by one of the interviews from last week where one of the people said that they had an "its all love" moment, and how they couldn't stop looking in the mirror and absolutely loving every part of their body that they had once despised and felt self-conscious about. I really got stuck on this idea of "it's all love". Those words really stuck with me. As someone who has struggled with anorexia and exercise addiction since I was 12, and it having almost killed me my senior year of high school, I think eating disorders could be a point of interest or something to focus on for my research... narrowing my topic down even more. So, I decided to make this video titled "It's All Love, Baby".

This video means *a lot* to me, and I really fell in love with making it and the final product. It makes me emotional, proud, happy, and sad all at once. I think some version of a video like this could be a cool addition to my psychedelic classroom in the final exhibition. I want to advocate for self-love, and sometimes we need help with that, and psychedelics seem to be quite the booster.

[tigoteus]

my absolute favourite thing authors do in books is to recontextualise little facts and details in the world. to pick a definitely random example (SPOILERS!!!!!), in "petrov's flu" (alexei salnikow, 2017), the titular petrow tells us that his son has pink tights that wash out in the laundry. this fact is forgotten by the reader when, approximately 100 pages later, his wife tells us that she kills people regularly and that after being soaked in blood once, she put the son's tights in the wash with the blood stained clothes to avoid suspicion.

i fucking ate the paper at that point isn't that a cool way to convey how we percieve different things from different perspectives. sorry i'm tipsy and tired rn but like. oh my god are you seeing this shit?!?!!!??!
