A fiery school board meeting in New York’s Penfield Central School District turned into chaos as outraged parents confronted administrators over a book containing explicit imagery made available to young children.

Faced with overwhelming backlash, the board abruptly retreated, leaving parents even more infuriated.

As reported by The Gateway Pundit, the controversy erupted after a kindergartener reportedly brought home a copy of The Rainbow Parade by Emily Neilson, a book depicting LGBTQ pride events, including images of men in bondage gear.

According to RochesterFirst.com, the book was available in the school library, sparking an uproar among parents who found its content wholly inappropriate for children.

John Feathers, one of the many outraged parents, didn’t hold back his frustration, stating:

“If you think that that’s appropriate for children to see, then there’s something wrong with you. You need to have a mental evaluation. There’s no reason that should be in the schools whatsoever at all.”

School Board President Emily Roberts attempted to restore order as the room filled with vocal objections.

“We have the policy in place. The procedures in place to object,” she stated, as parents pushed back. When she demanded that interruptions stop, tensions only escalated.

“We will ask those people who cannot do that to be removed. We are here at our board meeting conducting our business,” Roberts insisted, but her remarks were met with loud boos and jeers.

Parents were having none of it. “It’s our board meeting,” one woman shouted, highlighting the disconnect between school officials and the community they serve.

Faced with mounting pressure, Roberts abruptly called for a recess, and school board members quickly exited the room, a move that only further enraged attendees.

“They’re just leaving? How do you just leave a school board meeting with a packed room?”

Despite the uproar, the school district has not taken steps to remove the book. According to a school official, no formal request for removal has yet been submitted, meaning the book remains on the library shelves.

This clash highlights the growing frustrations of parents across the country who are pushing back against schools injecting radical ideology into early education. With administrators refusing to listen, parents are making it clear they won’t back down.
