A Virginia school board member was sworn in for his second term on a stack of controversial LGBTQ books instead of the Bible.
Fairfax County School Board Karl Frisch, who is gay, swore on the five LGBTQ-themed books “most frequently banned by other school systems,” according to his campaign website.
“He was sworn in on a stack of the five LGBTQ-themed books most frequently banned by other school systems,” Frisch’s campaign website announced. “Currently, the Board’s Vice Chair, Frisch becomes its Chair on January 1. He is the first LGBTQ+ person elected to local office in Virginia’s largest county and one of only four openly LGBTQ+ school board members in the Commonwealth out of roughly 800 members.”
