KUSD Pride Resolution Renews Debate Over School Board Priorities Following Carl Bryan Controversy

KENOSHA, Wis. — A symbolic Pride Month resolution scheduled for consideration by the Kenosha Unified School Board next week is renewing debate among residents over whether schools should involve themselves in social and cultural issues at all.

The proposal comes as newly elected school board president Carl Bryan, who is openly homosexual, has faced increased attention on social media after photos circulated online showing Bryan in drag under the name “Carlotta Cox.” The photos generated significant discussion online and sharply divided reactions among community members.

The school board agenda includes multiple symbolic resolutions, including one recognizing June 2026 as Pride Month and affirming student belonging and inclusion, another recognizing Juneteenth National Independence Day, and a resolution honoring recently unelected board member Yolanda Adams for her years of service. The Pride proposal specifically references LGBTQ individuals and states that LGBTQ youth continue facing discrimination and bullying while recognizing Pride Month as an opportunity to acknowledge the experiences and contributions of people who identify as LGBTQ+. The separate Juneteenth resolution recognizes June 19 as a day of education, reflection and remembrance regarding the end of slavery in the United States. The Yolanda Adams recognition resolution also notes actions taken during her tenure, including board approval of transgender nondiscrimination and anti-harassment policies.

The proposal, however, has reignited broader debate among some parents and residents who say schools should avoid any discussion involving sexuality or gender-related issues entirely.

Some people who contacted Kenosha County Eye said they viewed the issue as extending beyond Bryan personally and instead involving what they believe is an increasing effort to bring social and political issues into schools.

One parent who opposed the proposal told Kenosha County Eye:

“I think it’s absolutely ridiculous that Carl Bryan is injecting his own personal politics and sexual preferences into the school district where my seven and eight-year-old children attend. The school board should not talk about Pride Month or sexuality at all. Keep that shit out of schools.”

Other critics expressed similar concerns, arguing that schools should not be involved in discussions involving sexuality of any kind — whether heterosexual, homosexual, transgender-related, or otherwise — and instead should focus strictly on academics and education.

Public reaction to Bryan himself appears divided. Some residents have said Bryan’s personal life and sexual orientation have no bearing on his ability to serve on the school board and that elected officials should be judged by their decisions and performance. Others have said they personally do not support drag performances but previously indicated they would reserve judgment unless personal beliefs affected policy decisions or district governance. Critics now argue that what they once viewed as a hypothetical concern is no longer hypothetical at all, pointing to the proposed Pride Month resolution as evidence that broader social and cultural issues are now making their way into school board action.

Supporters of the proposal would likely argue that recognizing Pride Month and promoting inclusion is not equivalent to promoting sexuality and that the resolution’s stated purpose is ensuring students feel safe, respected and welcome in school environments.

The resolution specifically states that LGBTQ youth continue to face bullying and discrimination and that schools have a role in creating environments where students experience belonging and equal educational opportunities.

The school board is expected to consider the measures during its May 26 meeting.

  1. What month will KUSD celebrate straight (normal) people? Would it be ok as a KUSD employee to walk around as an employee explicitly talking in the break room to other employees about what sex acts you like to perform with your partner? Wouldn’t that violate sexual harassment policy?

    Hey sally, you know what I love to do with my wife? Does Sally have a right to complain?

      1. If only people would realize that homeschooling gives you so much freedom! THE PARENTS can help shape their children’s mind to face the world and obstacles that get in their children’s way.

        If you want to Homeschool, HSLDA( Homeschool Legal Defense Association) is a great source to help you get started. As a member, they provide you with an attorney…for FREE!
        Homeschool people!

          1. Yes, people are talking about saving their kids from mental illness and you stop by to tell us about financial considerations.

  2. Whatever side you’re on, please remember that this is about children and we are the adults. So let’s try to discuss this like adults in a mature and respectfully manner please. Thanks

    1. Thats what this is. If one employee couldn’t tell another employee how their spouse “loves when they lick their…..”, outwardly in a room of employees; why would they be able to outwardly say or endorse to children???
      Good morning class and co-workers. I just wanted to tell you all that my girlfriend makes me pee on her after sex. This is normal kids, so if you like that,
      you’re allowed to talk about it here….
      There should be no sexual talk at schools, other than sex education. Sex education should teach how men and a womens sexual functions work, what a male or a female is, and that unprotected sex can cause pregnancy (Between two opposite sex partners), and unprotected sex can transmit infections. School should not even talk about anything else.
      Maybe cover the rest in an Abnormal Psychology unit, explain dysphoria.

    2. Mind numbing this is even a topic.
      Those involved and those pushing this chit Are mentally handicapped and or delusional demented degenerates.

  3. Decades ago in Lake County IL, a principle at one of my children’s school got caught in a peep show at the old Superb Video stroking it. The school district swiftly fired him and gave him a non-derogatory letter. KUSD took the DEI route and now has to listen to all the debate about whether the clown they elected can strut his stuff. KUSD should focus on “readin’, writin’ and ‘rithmitic”. Not teaching our high school students to celebrate the homosexual experience.

  6. And then some retard responds, “NO, they do not teach that stuff, fake news.” THIS is why parents NEED to SAVE their children and run from KUSD. How can a loving parent leave their child in the hands of this ….derangement? ANY teacher, who goes along with this is accessory to mind raping these children , no excuses. Reason enough to shut this district down.
    (Parents, take down names NOW, you will need them for litigation later)

  8. Keep sexuality and politics out of school, most gay people don’t flaunt it that they’re gay. All they want is to live their lives in peace and happiness. Get back to teaching the basics.

    18
    1
  9. Sexuality and Drag needs to stop being on the streets and everywhere you look, not just schools. What is done between two consenting people should be between them and God, and no other person should both see it or care about it. People always need to shove their beliefs in everyone’s faces and it’s beyond numbing and overdone. Sure have “pride” in what you like, fine. I’m just tired of it. Be straight, have kids, and do some there subtle things against the Bible like getting tattoos, eating pork, drinking, listening to vulgar music with earthly lyrics, and all the other heathendom of our every day existence. However it should be that all our sexualities, desires, and vices (up for debate) should not be paraded around in the streets for all to see, should not be thrown in Children’s eyes, should not be used to influence really anybody, but should between the Two people and “The Creator” that is all. Society should have nothing to do with it. In the end, only He can say what is right and what is wrong.

  10. I don’t understand the concept of any public funded entity participating in “pride” statements or endorsements. Would they be equally inclined to celebrate a group of white males that were “proud” of themselves as a group? A group of people who like culvers, and their “proud” of it? A group of students who have jobs and are “proud” that they are working? A group of students who are in great physical shape from working out, and want to go shirtless at school because they are “proud” of their physique?

    Why is “pride” limited to certain groups? It’s discriminatory. Same as any field trip or college tour that the school segregates the students into certain groups can attend. We need to get past this segregation and breeding of hate that the schools push on our children.

    14
  11. The fact remains, this person was duly elected by a majority of Kenosha Citizens to represent their educational ideals best suited for their children. This reflects the state of its community as a whole.
    Begs the question…is KUSD competent enough to be in custody of your children, hours a day, behind closed doors?

  12. Here is something that is not talked about enough. This is his education pedigree (he calls himself “Dr” because PhD):

    Bachelor of Political Science with minors in History and Economics from UW-Parkside in 2013
    Master of Arts in Public Policy & Administration from Northwestern University in 2015
    Earned a Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership from Minnesota State University-Moorhead

    What I can tell you for certain is that the people in college that got their degrees in Political Science, Public Policy and Education were the dumbest MFs in college. By a wide margin. We need a wholesale shake out of these people off of school boards and replaced with tradespeople, STEM graduates, engineers, scientists, etc.

    1. Ask yourself- Why can all the shop teachers weld, but the business or economics teachers don’t own a business, and don’t know how to become wealthy? Why are there fat gym teachers?
      They’re teaching kids something they don’t know how to do.

  13. So we pay taxes to entrust our children’s education and safety to this gender traitor degenerate? I wish I could afford to keep mine out of the public system.
    This is another story that deserves nationwide coverage.

  14. Question- Can my kids go into the Indian Trail prayer room and talk about how they love being gay to the other students in the prayer room?
    Maybe the board or admin can let us know?

  15. Carl is completely out of his mind ….my vote for Jackass of the month …add that to Pride month …a joke in itself
