President Jair Bolsonaro’s win was a grave day for Brazilian LGBTI individuals. Not only did the former army captain actively come out against LGBT rights, but he’s now going after gender and sexuality education in schools. Bolsonaro is pushing against teachers talking about “gender ideology,” a term describing gender, sexual orientation, and political views, in schools, The Economist reported. Bolsonaro says that “liberal” teachers are too partisan, and the conservative administration wants to promote “pluralism.”
