Post-Cards from Buster
Over at Catawumpus, there is political action taking place... Kim Voynar wrote a great piece about how PBS is getting heat for creating a children's program which shows a family headed by lesbians... it is an episode of Postcards from Buster (a spin-off from Arthur) and Margaret Spelling, the Secretary of the Department of Education is denouncing the show.
According to the Boston Globe:
Since it launched last year, ''Postcards From Buster" has profiled several different types of families, including children who live with their grandparents. The show has also focused on children from a variety of religious backgrounds, including Muslims, Mormons, and evangelical Christians.
Go read the post. Take action. As a Canadian, I can write to PBS... and give them my support in airing the show. Write PBS here: http://www.pbs.org/parents/feedback.html
Americans can write their political people to complain about her.
Canada supports same-sex marriage!
