Florida teacher investigated for showing Disney movie with LGBTQ character to 5th grade class.

A Florida fifth-grade teacher is under investigation for showing a Disney movie featuring a gay character, which violates the state's controversial law banning instruction about certain LGBTQ topics. The teacher claims she was not aware that the law had been expanded to include her grade level. The parent who reported her complained that the movie was not appropriate for students, while the teacher argues that her students are already discussing such topics on their own. The teacher had already submitted her resignation from the school the week before the incident occurred due to "politics and the fear of not being able to be who you are" in the public school system.
