PSL protests at Pinellas County School Board meeting against "Moms4liberty"/DeSantis agenda

Submitted by Luke on Wed, 03/01/2023 - 01:34

On the 28th of February, the Party for Socialism and Liberation held a protest outside the Pinellas County School Board's meeting.
They were protesting the DeSantis/Moms4Liberty agenda of book banning, budget cuts, "Don't Say Gay," the entire school takeover agenda. In Pinellas Countu, if astroturfing so-called "Moms 4 Liberty" manages to elect two more school board members they get a working majority and can effectively turn the Pinellas County schools into Christian religious schools, firing anyone who is unwilling to be part of that agenda.

On the 24th of February, Trapt played at the brass Mug in Tampa. Trapt's lead singer is a Proud Boy, and his public pro-Fascist statements have cost the band a drummer (who quit over this shit) and many cancelled shows. While one of the opening acts played, anti-Fascist activists entered the venue parking lot and posted fliers directly on the walls of the brass mug.
