Local student is being denied the role for not be assigned male at birth. Now they've decided that Oklahoma is too controversial of a play and includes graphic scenes not fit for minors so they're pulling the whole show. Bunch of asshats at Sherman, TX ISD.
Edit: I will try to answer any comments I can. I do not personally know the student. I can't really speak for trans folks as I'm just an ally who wants better for this kiddo and all trans people.
If the student was cis female, they article wouldn't refer to him as he/him.
you give rural Texas news stations a bit more credit than I would
Neither pro-trans nor transphobic media has any reason to refer to a cis woman/girl by he/him.
not to mention his dad literally being quoted as using he/him pronouns...
