State Makes Gay History A Requirement - Politics News Story - KTVU San Francisco: "California became the nation's first state to require its public schools to teach students about the history and contributions of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people Thursday.
The new law, SB48, was signed by Gov. Jerry Brown today and will take effect in January.
'History should be honest,' Brown said in a statement.
The measure authored by Sen. Mark Leno, D-San Francisco, adds LGBT groups to a list of cultural and ethnic categories that school districts have previously been required to describe accurately and fairly in social studies classes."
