Pride Month Is Here! Celebrate THIS FRIDAY @ lunch by the Senior Tree
ALL Archie Williams students and staff are invited to join in our AW Pride Celebration this Friday at lunch by the Senior Tree. Lots of fun activities!  🏳️‍🌈 Show your Pride support by wearing colorful clothing this Friday!!! Rainbows welcome! 🏳️‍🌈

It’s time for a refresher on LGBTQIA+ history!

In 1999, June was officially federally recognized as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month by former President Clinton. In 2009 it was later recognized by former President Obama as LGBT Pride Month and again recognized by President Biden in 2021 as LGBTQ Pride Month. But June has been celebrated as Pride Month by members of the LGBTQ+ community since 1970: on the first anniversary of the Stonewall Riots.

On June 28, 1969, the Stonewall Riots began when the NYPD raided a gay bar, the Stonewall Inn, in Greenwich Village. This violent raid sparked six days of protests and riots in the area. Stonewall resulted in the Gay Rights Movement taking the United States by storm.

Although gay rights have drastically improved since the ‘70s, it’s been a long and trying fight, with gay marriage only being legalized in 2016. Today, students are still regularly called the f-slur in passing, most often by their peers. Allowing ignorance like this to continue without consequence further enables the idea that it’s okay. The f-slur should never be used in a negative way or by people who are not queer.

The f-slur, by definition, used to mean “A bundle of sticks.” This type of bundle of sticks was used as fuel for burning heretics, people who opposed the Catholic Church, in the 1400s. Heretics were forced to gather these sticks to take to the fire that was being built for them.

Heretics who changed their beliefs to avoid being burned had to wear a symbol of the sticks on their sleeves. People began using the f-slur to refer to people who were seen as burdens, such as heretics. It soon became a sexist term then later became a word to emasculate men and demean queer people.

In recent history, there are consistent efforts to censor and demean LGBTQ issues, with laws like the Parental Rights in Education Act, also known as “Don’t Say Gay,” restricting necessary knowledge and discussions from happening. But there is still hope. By being active members of your community you can support queer people by educating yourself and others on the power of hate speech and the importance of queer issues being discussed.

            This history lesson was provided by Harper Miller. Thanks  Harper!

Stealing Is Illegal. Students, we have gotten several concerning phone calls over the past couple of weeks reporting that Archie Willliams’ students are stealing items at lunch from our local community stores. This is both illegal and against school rules. It also is just bad. Please remember that these stores are community businesses. Students caught stealing from businesses during school hours will face legal and school consequences, be banned from the store and will have their off campus privileges revoked. This is not who we are as a school community. We can do better and will do better.
