"An esteemed public arts high school in San Francisco is proudly introducing an LGBT history course.

''This is history. This is an experience that happened,'' Ruth Asawa School of the Arts instructor Lyndsey Schlax recently told the San Francisco Chronicle. ''How can we not teach history? That's what we do.''

The college prepatory class will be incorporated with other studies on minority groups, and include lessons on the Stonewall riots, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," marriage equality, and the continuing fight against discrimination."

Sounds more like a class on activism.
