The sites below are blocked by the Amphitheater Public Schools WebSense filtering software for, "Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual content" whatever that might mean! As I state on the Other Internet Links page, none of the links from that page lead to anything remotely described as pornographic. You will see more flesh and titulation on MTV than on all these sites combined.
This is an obvious case of bias and discrmination -- homophobia alert!. Funny thing is, the Amphi District has a non-discrimination policy that specifically includes GLBT students as a protected class.
So... what are you going to do about it? Please click on the links and visit these sites from a school computer, note the reason your school district's filtering software blocks the web site (copy the text from the web page), and fill in the form for the links. Press submit your entries.
Thank you in advance for your help. I hope to compile names of the school districts (where ever you are) and let them know that students are being discriminated against and they should change their web-filtering classification regarding GLBT students.
