Two ESPN announcers staged a lengthy moment of silence during an NCAA women’s basketball tournament game on Friday as a gesture of solidarity with Disney colleagues who are protesting a Florida bill restricting LGBTQ discussion
“We thought we were going to come here today and really celebrate a sport that has meant so much and done so much including for so many in the LGBTQIA+ communities, but we understand the gravity of this legislation,” Duncan said. “And because of that, our allyship is going to take a front seat.”Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has indicated that he will eventually sign the bill, saying last week that the bill would help regulate school instruction and education about sexual orientation.
“We are going to make sure parents are able to send their kid to kindergarten without having some of this stuff injected into some of their school curriculum,” said DeSantis, who accused the media of misinterpreting the bill.
