Love Your Curls, And Your Lgbtq Identity

The BDN Editorial Board operates independently from the newsroom, and does not set policies or contribute to reporting or editing aticles elsewhere in the newspaper or on bangordailynews.com. Hat’s off – literally – to Zander Moricz, the student speaker at Pine View School in Osprey, Florida, who found a way to celebrate his identity despite misguided new restrictions that started with the state government on what he was allowed to discuss during his commencement address. Moricz is the president of his senior class, a gay activist, and the youngest plaintiff in a lawsuit against a new Florida law that restricts what teachers can say in classes about gender and sexual orientation. Moricz said that was told by his principal not to mention his activism or say the word “gay” in his address to his classmates and audience, which was approved by administrators before the May 22 ceremony.
