California Governor Gavin Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom:
- Gavin runs the state, and Siebel is a nonprofit founder, entrepreneur, and filmmaker
- Governor Newsom’s charity shouldn’t have been soliciting anyone for donations throughout most of 2022
- The Representation Project was not in compliance with the California Charitable Solicitation Act
- They spent last year engaged in big-money fundraising events with corporate executives and philanthropists while its charitable filings were delinquent with the state
Sexually Explicit Images
- Miss Representation's curriculum links to "age-appropriate" video clips in its K-12 lesson plans and says that the full film is rated PG-14. The film features strong language and women dressed provocatively.
- Caroline Heldman, who is now executive director of Newsom's non-profit, described women's role in action movies as "the fighting fuck toy."
The Mask You Live In
- The film seems to justify their harmful content by saying that "34% of youth online receive unwanted pornography exposure."
- However, 100% of the youth (or anyone else) receive unwanted or unwarranted pornographic exposure by watching Newsom's movies.
The Great American Lie
- Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom and his wife, Siebel Newsom, get paid by schools to portray their politician husband as a standup guy to captive children in the classroom
- Newsom speaks three times in Miss Representation and is portrayed as a champion of women's rights
- He makes five appearances delivering political talking points
The Great American Lie
- Jennifer Siebel Newsom makes a movie portraying Gavin Newsom as a politician that supports certain policies, and then in the movie's curriculum advises students to vote and campaign for politicians that support those policies.
- Schools, which receive funding from the state, pay The Representation Project to show this movie and use taxpayer-funded class time to facilitate these lessons.
The Genderbread Person:
- A "genderbread person" who aims to show children how biological sex, gender expression, sexual attraction, and gender identity exist on a spectrum, which can be mixed and matched.
- In addition, kindergarteners are offered lessons on "gender identity," introducing genders other than "boy" and "girl."
- Left-wing political activism: students are asked to do a "privilege walk," divulging personal information to compare themselves to peers inside and outside the classroom.
Stop being blind to history
- Bryan Stevenson encourages viewers to feel "shame and sorrow:".
- We have to engage in truth telling, we have to express some shame and sorrow about who we are and what we've done, we're going to have to find the will to reconcile ourselves to a different future."
STUDY: The Student-to-Activist Assembly Line
- Curricula from the three available films advise diverse ways for students to become activists within their families and communities.
- Suggested activities include promoting The Representation Project social media campaigns, voting for candidates that "support the care economy," and asking students to “market and host a screening” of the films.
Following the Money
- The Representation Project not only solicits donors from big-money political supporters of Gavin Newsom but also receives public tax dollars through schools to create a new generation of supporters and activists in the state's-and country's-schoolchildren.
- Various funding sources translate directly to financial gain for Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the top paid executive at her non-profit with a $150,000 annual salary between 2013 and 2021.
