The Walt Disney Company and Disney+ announced they will be renewing The
Proud Family: Louder and Prouder for a second as the show finds itself in
the center of DisneyAs onot-at-all-secret gay agenda.o
At the end of March, executive producer for DisneyAs Television Animation Latoya Raveneau, who works on The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder series, admitted Disney fully embraced her onot-at-all-secret gay agenda.o
In a video obtained and shared to social media by journalist Christopher
F. Rufo, Raveneau can be seen talking during The Walt DisneyAs CompanyAs Reimagine Tomorrow video conference call.
In the video she says, oIn my little pocket of Proud Family Disney TVA,
the showrunners were super welcoming. Meredith Roberts and our leadership
over there has been so welcoming to my not-at-all-secret gay agenda.o
She added, oMaybe it was that way in the past, but I guess something must
have happened in the last, they are turning it around, theyAre going hard,
and then like all that momentum that I felt, that sense of aI donAt have
to be afraid to letAs have these two characters kiss in the background.A I
was just, wherever I could, just basically adding queerness. If you see anything queer in the show u no one would stop me, and no one was trying
to stop me.o
In another video shared to social media by Rufo, Raveneau stated, oI
identify as a biromantic asexual. IAve had a lot of learning and growing
about myself this year, kind of facilitated by how comfortable I felt on
The Proud Family and with my immediate team at Disney TVA. And so itAs
just sort of like this creative dissonance between my personal experience, where I feel so safe and so supportive. I mean, I wasnAt in the closet,
but IAm real out now.o
She continued, oOutside of my team, outside of TVA it feels like the
things that we believe that weAre trying to put into the shows are not
what we are seeing in the real world. It leaves you in a weird space.o
The clip then cuts to Raveneau saying, oIAm still thinking I want to use
my content to go deeper u talk about how non-monolithic the LGBTQ+
community as an asexual. As an asexual u I feel like a lot of people donAt what that is. I have to have a dissertation ready at any given time.o
oI want to add the pockets of the LGBTQ community that you donAt see. I
want to get gay advanced. And then I realized, aOh s***, we need to go
back to Gay 101,Ao she declared.

The showAs directors include Latoya Raveneau, Rudi Bloss, and Tara Nicole Whitaker.
The showAs renewal refutes the idea that oDisney is throwing in the towelo
as posited by Kyle Smith in National Review. Instead, it appears Disney is doubling down on their onot-at-all-secret gay agendao as they promised
they would.
In fact, when initially facing outrage from individuals and organizations
like GLAAD opposed to FloridaAs Parental Rights in Education bill that prevents teaching of sexual orientation and gender ideology for students
in kindergarten through third grade, Disney and its CEO Bob Chapek
promised to ensure that type of teaching was done through their content.
The Walt Disney Company released a statement at the beginning of March
that read, oWe understand how important this issue is to our LGBTQ+
employees and many others. For nearly a century, Disney has been a
unifying force that brings people together.o
oWe are determined that it remains a place where everyone is treated with dignity and respect. The biggest impact we can have in creating a more inclusive world is through the inspiring we content produce, the welcoming culture we create here and the diverse community organizations we support, including those representing the LGBTQ+ community,o the statement
concluded.

But DoesnAt Want It Become A oPolitical Footballo
Chapek followed up that corporate statement with one of his own explaining
why the company was not publicly opposing the bill.
oAs we have seen time and again, corporate statements do very little to
change outcomes or minds,o he explained. oInstead, they are often
weaponized by one side or the other to further divide and inflame. Simply
put, they can be counterproductive and undermine more effective ways to achieve change.o
He then added, oI do not want anyone to mistake a lack of a statement for
a lack of support. We all share the same goal of a more tolerant,
respectful world. Where we may differ is in the tactics to get there.o
He then declared, oAnd because this struggle is much bigger than any one
bill in any one state, I believe the best way for our company to bring
about lasting change is through the inspiring content we produce, the welcoming culture we create, and the diverse community organizations we support.o
oThereAs a reason content is at the top of this list. For nearly a
century, our companyAs stories have opened minds, inspired dreams, shown
the world both as it is and how we wish it could be, and now more than
ever before, represent the incredible diversity of our society,o Chapek elaborated.
oWe are telling important stories, raising voices, and I believe, changing hearts and minds,o he added.

In a company-wide email, Chapek then declared the company would not just
be trying to groom kids into these disordered lifestyles as part of their content, but they would also be actively opposing any legislation or legal action attempting to blunt its spread in the name of ohuman rights.o
Chapek wrote, oIt is clear that this is not just an issue about a bill in Florida, but instead yet another challenge to basic human rights. You
needed me to be a stronger ally in the fight for equal rights and I let
you down. I am sorry.o
Later in the email he declared, oStarting immediately, we are increasing
our support for advocacy groups to combat similar legislation in other
states. We are hard at work creating a new framework for our political
giving that will ensure our advocacy better reflects our values. And
today, we are pausing all political donations in the state of Florida
pending this review.o
He would conclude the email writing, oI missed the mark in this case but
am an ally you can count onuand I will be an outspoken champion for the protections, visibility, and opportunity you deserve.o
Following this, the company announced, oFloridaAs HB 1557, also known as
the aDonAt Say GayA bill, should never have passed and should never have
been signed into law. Our goal as a company is for this law to be repealed
by the legislature or struck down in the courts, and we remain committed
to supporting the national and state organizations working to achieve
that.o
oWe are dedicated to standing up for the rights and safety of LGBTQ+
members of the Disney family, as well as the LGBTQ+ community in Florida
and across the country,o The Walt Disney Company asserted.

Disney is clearly not throwing in the towel. They are doing the complete opposite. They are doubling down on their onot-so-secret gay agendao and
their efforts to groom you and your children into immoral and disordered lifestyles.
