Protect Our Community Against Racist and Anti-LGBTQ+ Rhetoric

**This article is a re-post from Pajaro Valley Pride**

A coalition of 44 local organizations has united to denounce the group Moms for Liberty, which came to Watsonville for a meeting last weekend. Moms for Liberty says it advocates parental rights, but is labeled extremist by the Southern Poverty Law Center. Here, the 44 organizations denounce the tactics, ideas and motivations of Moms for Liberty, which include banning books and limiting discussions about race and LGBTQ+ identities in schools. โ€œWe will fight their efforts with vigor and passion every step of the way to protect our most vulnerable kids and their families,โ€ the groups write.
