A Target Corporation senior executive in the marketing department maintains a position with a controversial K-12 advocacy organization called GLSEN – Target’s Pride Month partner – which is focused on integrating gender ideology at all levels of K-12 schools, from curriculum to district policy.
Carlos Saavedra is a vice president of brand marketing at Target and a treasurer at GLSEN. GLSEN focuses on getting districts to adopt policies that will keep parents in the dark on their child’s in-school gender transition, providing sexually explicit books to schools for free, and integrating gender ideology at all levels of curriculum in public schools.
Target and Saavedra did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Target has faced backlash for its LGBTQ Pride merchandise, compelling it to move their collection away from the front of some locations after customer “outrage” to avoid a “Bud Light situation.”
Many Target locations across the country feature “tuck friendly” bathing suits for transgender people to mugs that say “gender fluid.” But the retail juggernaut has been criticized by some conservatives for the displays, with children’s items particularly irking many customers.
Keep your kids AWAY from these demons. Target is dead to me. Not that I shopped there before but now I will NEVER step foot in one.
Somebody, or a group of somebodies, thought hiring this creep was a good idea. If he stays, we’ll know they agree with him.
What about Walmart? I heard something a month or so ago but haven’t seen it in the news.
