Madeline Kirksey, a Christian author, is suing after she was fired from a childcare center for refusing to call a transgender student by a boy's name
Video After The Jump
(Houston Chronicle) A federal discrimination complaint has been filed on behalf of a Katy-area educator who says she was wrongly terminated for refusing to address a 6-year-old girl as a transgender boy, the teacher's attorneys said Tuesday.
Madeline Kirksey, of Houston, who worked at the Children's Lighthouse Learning Center location on Clay Road, was fired Nov. 3 after she would not agree to treat the child as a male and call the child by a new male name, according to a copy of the filing with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
Attorney Andy Taylor pointed to Kirksey's protected class as a black female over 40 who holds religious convictions. "All of those rights were not vindicated but destroyed," Taylor said.
Attorney Andy Taylor speaks on behalf of his client, Madeline Kirksey, during a news conference, Tuesday, Nov. 10, 2015, in Houston.
Taylor represented the plaintiffs who challenged the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance, which was originally passed by the city council but was repealed by Houston voters last week. Taylor is joined in Kirksey's case by attorney Briscoe Cain. Kirksey's pastor also attended and spoke at a morning news conference at a Galleria-area hotel.
Reached by phone Tuesday, Jamie Izaks, a spokesman for the Children's Lighthouse Learning Centers, said Kirksey was not fired because of the matter relating to the transgender student. He said he could not comment on matters related to employment.
The learning center franchises, first established in Fort Worth, exist in multiple states, and the company promotes itself online as "the leading values-based educational child care system in the U.S." Izaks said the schools are accepting of all religions and have a reputation for nurturing and raising great students.
Taylor stressed that the child had been attending school since the start of classes as a "little girl."
Using fake names, Taylor said that the child left school Friday as "Sally" and returned on Monday going by "Johnny."
"They had a real issue on their hands," Taylor said of the school staff.
Taylor maintained the child's gender identity wasn't set in stone. He said the child continued to use the girls' bathroom. The 6-year-old also played football with the boys and, when hit hard, cried and said, "I'm really not a little boy."
Taylor likened the imposition of such a decision over gender on a child to "child abuse." At such a young age, he said, kids haven't even decided what ice cream or cereal they prefer.
The attorney praised Kirksey for standing up to protect the child from ridicule, as well as keeping the other children at the school in mind who would have been "mightily" confused.
The EEOC enforces federal discrimination laws on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability or genetic information.

Lil Wayne's bank account is about to be $96,000 lighter after he was ordered to pay Pyrotek Special Effects.
TMZ reports that the company was never compensated for the pyrotechnics they provided for Weezy's 2013 tour. They sued the rapper, but came to an out of court settlement. The problem is, they never received a dime from Wayne.
PSE took theYoung Money Recordsboss back to court and and got the $96k judgment.
This latest financial setback comes on the heels of assets being seized from Wayne's Miami home to pay off a $2 million debt to a private jet company.
Floyd Mayweather Jr. has been somewhat of a mentor to Adrien Broner during his boxing career. That may not be the case anymore after AB dissed The Money Team recently.
"I don't wanna hear shit about TMT shit," Broner said outside of the BET Hip Hop Awards in Atlanta in October. "I fuck with Floyd. All the rest of that shit dead. Other than that it's About Billions."
I only fuck with a few of them niggas the rest can keep hating on me.... None of them niggas better not step in the ring with me doe #FACTS
Floyd finally responded to Broner's jab during an interview with FightHype this week.
"Instead of saying fuck The Money Team, he needs to be thanking The Money Team," Floyd told FightHype. "Because at the end of the day Al Haymon is a part of The Money Team. Everything is under the same umbrella when it's all said and done. If you're saying fuck Al Haymon, you're saying fuck Floyd Mayweather. When you're say fuck Floyd Mayweather, you're saying fuck Al Haymon."
Floyd goes on to criticize the direction Broner's career is headed and said the 26-year old Cincinnati fighter "has a lot of growing up to do."
Money May also took exception to comments Broner made about Caityln Jenner after his last bout. AB was asked in the post-fight interview about boxing a TMT fighter, Ashley Theophane, that Floyd believes can beat him when he dissed Jenner.
"This is what you do [Floyd]. 'Cause bosses talk to bosses. You put Ashley on one of your private jets. Bring him to come see me and I bet I bring the girl out of that boy like Bruce Jenner," AB said.
"You are there taking shots at Bruce Jenner. When it’s all said and done, let Bruce Jenner live his life the way he wanna live his life," Floyd responded. "Bruce Jenner don’t even know who Adrien Broner is, but Adrien Broner do know who Bruce Jenner is. You gotta watch what you say because you don’t never know who you may need in life or who you may bump into in life."
What's your take on this situation?
**UPDATE** November 12th
Adrien Broner has fired back at Floyd Mayweather Jr. via a 10-minute video he posted to his YouTube channel.
AB says the reason he made the video is because he's been trying to reach Floyd by phone without success.
Check out what Broner had to say below.
Listen, man, I wasn't going to do this over the internet because at the end of the day, it's pointless, you know what I'm saying. Like, I got your number, you got my number, but I've been reaching out to you, I've been calling you, you ain't been answering the phone, so the only way I could get your attention or get you to hear or listen to my message is through the internet.
And then you say, um, you say some shit about me winning my 4th world title. Well, I learned this shit from you, right. You told me this out your own mouth. You said, "We are in boxing to get the biggest reward for less punishment." That's what you told me, so for you to go talk about one of my accomplishments and downplay something that I did, that's fucked up. Ain't no TMT fighter got 4 world championships in 4 weight classes. Only you. So how the fuck could you downplay some shit that I did. No matter, I don't give a fuck if I fought your assistant for my last fight, I'm still a 4-time world champion. At the end of the day, when it's all said and done, just like you say, when it's all said and done, I'ma go in the history books as a 4-time world champion in 4 different weight classes if I quit boxing today.
And then you said some shit like, if I'm disrespecting you, I'm disrespecting Al Haymon, but that's a contradicting ass saying because Al Haymon the one who got me the fucking fight. I ain't go out and pick these motherfuckers. I don't go out and pick these motherfuckers. I don't know these motherfuckers from Russia. I don't know him. I ain't never heard of him. So with you saying that you would be ashamed, you wouldn't call yourself a world champion, you the one disrespecting Al Haymon. And you said if I'm disrespecting Al Haymon, I'm disrespecting you, so you disrespecting yourself, nigga. How you want somebody to respect you and you disrespect yourself? Come on, Floyd. This shit lame, bruh. Pick up your phone and call me.
What you did wasn't no playa shit. That wasn't no live shit. That was some lame fuck boy shit. You went on the internet and sent out a message talking about somebody that you put on record as your little brother, you know what I'm saying. Somebody that you say you love and you care for and want to look after him and all this one shit, and the you try to diss him to the public. That ain't no cool shit. And don't get me wrong, I probably said that bullshit; I could've said that bullshit that I said in a different way, but everybody know, and you know because we talked about this on the phone before you put this weak ass diss out, I wasn't talking about you. I would never disrespect you, because when it comes to boxing, you amazing, you know. It might not never be another Floyd Mayweather and it might not never be another motherfucker that take the game on and do it how you did it, but at the end of the day, as a person, you fucked up, man. You fucked up for real, man. You falling out with some of the realest niggas that you got around you. Come on, man. At the end of the day, all I wanted from you is to teach me how to do what you did or even surpass what you did. That's all I wanted from you. That's it. I can go out here and make my own money. I can't go out here and buy my own cars, you know what I'm saying. That's all I want; I just want to learn from you. All that other shit is weak. And then you making it so personal like I'm fighting you. Nigga, I ain't fighting you. You ain't say shit about me fighting Ashley Theophane. You went on a diss like you that much in your feelings. Nigga, quit playing with me, man. Come on, man. Quiet as kept, you only fuck with a couple of them TMT fighters. You don't even fuck with them for real, man. You want me to be TMT, nigga. Quit playing with me, man. Nigga! And it is what it is. I don't fuck with none of them niggas, man. I fuck with you, and like you told me on the phone, nigga, "Everything cool. Fuck everybody if me and you cool, right?" So what the fuck was that weak ass message for, Floyd?
And then I feel like, you know, you way bigger than that. Why would you make a message to little old Adrien Broner, man. Am I that important to you, Floyd? Like, was that really on your mind when you woke up; to wake up and call Ben from FightHype and make a diss about Adrien Broner and put it out. And then you told me to grow up. Nigga, you got some fucking growing up to do, and you older than me. Man, come on, man. I'd never put out a diss and diss Floyd Mayweather, and I'd never let nobody in my camp diss Floyd Mayweather, even today, nigga, after the diss, nigga. I don't play that shit. I'm a real nigga, point blank, period, and I don't gotta say that. That shit you did was weak. That was some gay ass shit, for real. And then you gonna bring up the Bruce Jenner shit. Come on, man. Quit playing with me, Floyd. Floyd, quit play with me, bruh. When have you ever gave a fuck about...you know what? I ain't even going to go into that. You know you was wrong for that though. And for anybody out there, I have no problems with gay men or gay women. I have no problems with the homosexuality out there. It was just, you know, when I do my interviews, I don't prepare or right nothing down. It was just off the type like suicide and, you know, that's what I felt; that's just how I felt at the moment, you know.
But, you know, back to the situation, man, I'm 100% supportive of TMT. I want to see any boxer out of TMT be successful and become a world champion one day, if not already a world champion, not only because, you know, he got a lot African Americans on his team, but he got a lot of people on his team that grew up how I grew up, and I want anybody that grew up from the hood or without a silver spoon, you know, I want them to make it, you know, and that's all I'm saying, man. But it's a lot of hate coming from over your way, man, and I don't like it, and I'm real mad that you really made me stoop down to this level, because at the end of the day, man, we both bigger than this bullshit, bruh. We make too much money for this bullshit. I don't make near as much as money as you yet, but at the end of the day, we make too much money for this childish ass shit, man. Quit playing, man. Pick up your motherfuckin' phone. You got my number. Come on, man. Hit me up, bruh. If you want to talk business, we can talk business. That shit was weak, bruh. Some gay ass shit, for real. If ain't nobody else tell you, I'ma tell you because I ain't no yes man, nigga. That was some gay ass shit, real talk. Hit up your little brother, AB, 4-time world champion, nigga, 4 different weight classes, nigga. Yeah! Get the fuck outta here!
And don't send your flunkies on crash out trips and make them upload videos talking shit about me.... You call me and we can talk #FLOYD
The Los Angeles Police Department has opened a criminal battery investigation, looking into an alleged attack on a club security guard by Azealia Banks.
TMZ reports that the 24-year old rapper was partying at Break Room 86 in L.A. last month, when she and her crew became rowdy and were asked to leave.
As Banks exited, a security guard says she tried to pull the fire alarm. The guard attempted to stop her, leading to the alleged attack by Banks and her friends.
Big things are popping for Pusha T. Not only is he putting the finishing touches on his next album, King Push, he's also been named the President of G.O.O.D. Music.
Billboard reports that the 38-year old rapper, real name, Terrence Thornton, will take the reigns of the Def Jam imprint, effective immediately. His longtime manager, Steven Victor, is the new A&R.
The Virginia representative talked to Billboard about his new position. Check that out below.
A big congratulations are in order. Just got word that you will be the president of G.O.O.D. Music. How was the offer presented you?
Actually, I was flying home and I had just got into my car at the airport. ‘Ye had called me and he was like, "Tell me something. What do you think about being the president of G.O.O.D. Music?" And I was like, "Well, what are the things that you’re looking for?" And he was basically just like, to manicure the label, make it profitable and be very business-oriented about it going forward in a manicured type of way.
What was going through your mind in those four months since? Any pros and cons that you were weighing?
It wasn’t really any time to me. I always look at it as an opportunity to help the team and I think that artistically, me and Kanye have the same vision. He respects me as an artist, a really manicured artist. I’m not out here shooting in the dark, doing any and every thing. When it comes to albums and things like that, I have a very manicured process in which I get to take my time and I think he sorta respects that I get to take my time. It’s never no pressure simply because I think he looks at me and my other businesses and understands that’s why I have this luxury of time in whether it be my clothing stores, my clothing line, just things like that. He just notices me and him don’t ever have that type of pressure, tension, producer-artist relationship. I think he respects that a lot and not to mention, ever since I’ve been on G.O.O.D. Music, there’s been a host of artists that I’ve brought to the table, tried to sign, brought to his attention in trying to sign, whether something was super hot or I called it it’s not going to stand the test of time, it’s wack. I been pretty right in a few regards. Those are the things he keys on as far as I go and just as far as being a part of the culture. He knows I’m outside all the time. He knows that I’m of the people. He knows that I’m in those specific mixes of things that are bubbling up, whether it’s online or before it even really gets hot online. He knows I study those different avenues.
In a perfect world, what would G.O.O.D. Music look like to you in the next five months?
I just look at capitalizing on everything that I feel like G.O.O.D. Music brings to the music industry, our following, and the culture. First of all, we have incredible artists. It’s definitely about getting those albums out in a very manicured fashion. We have great artistic talent that sort of walk the lines of bringing that excitement back in regards to just the art that goes along with it like DONDA, the merch and things like that. Things that kids are really into these days. You see how fashion takes over and these pop-up shops take over and how the music business is a real touring business now, just the things associated with it. Just building it out to make sure that everybody on the label is really capitalizing off of all the assets that really come with GOOD Music, that we really started, that we’ve really been good at. Just really executing all the different avenues of music, art, culture and fashion as well.
Charlamagne Tha God awarded the "Donkey of the Day" for Monday, November 9th, to Vivica A. Fox.
The 51-year old actress tried to insinuate 50 Cent was gay during a Sunday interview on "Watch What Happens Live." This comes just months after she declared the "I Get Money" hit maker the "love of her life" on the The Meredith Vieira Show.
Charlamagne says Vivica violated the "One Crack Commandment." To find out what that is listen up top.
Mississippi rapper/producer David Banner doesn't have any kids yet, but when he does he plans on being a responsible parent.
The 41-year old, real name Lavell Crump, chopped it up with DJ Smallz about the importance he places on being a good father. And why he'll put his kids before his career.
"I remember hearing a story...I don't know how true it is. But I heard Andre 3000 drove all the way from Atlanta to Dallas to pick up his son. And make sure he was there on the first day of school. That's what I wanna be. That's the kind of parent I wanna be," David said. "And if I would have had kids I couldn't be this David Banner I am now. My kids gon' come first, fuck some music."
50 Cent and G-Unit were in Stockholm, Sweden on Sunday, November 8th, for a show at Fryshuset Arena, while on their European trek.
50 stopped the show for several minutes to talk about the Meek Mill vs. Drake beef.
"[Meek] poked at him. The nigga started the shit. It's like you were picking on somebody in the schoolyard and the motherfucker says, [makes swinging motion] 'get the fuck away from me motherfucker,'" 50 said. "He thought he was gon' pick on Drake and got the shit slapped out of him."
The G-Unit boss then asked the crowd if anyone knew the name of Meek's response diss to Drizzy's "Back to Back," but it didn't seem like anyone did.
50 Cent was recently in Pittsburgh to promote EFFEN Vodka. He used to opportunity during stops at Fine Wine & Good Spirits and CONSOL Energy Center to pose for pictures with fans, talk about "The Kanan Tape" EP, cross promoting EFFEN with efforts from Yo Gotti, Future and Uncle Murda, remaining relevant in the music business, SMS Audio and more.
“I’m using the platform that I previously used to sell music to sell alcohol. It worked and was effective for the Cîroc brand. I’m incorporating it into everything that I do. You should expect to see product placement throughout my show ‘Power’ and in my new music (videos) that will be coming out in the next few weeks and I have so many artists connections and I’m working with them and you will see the product there too,” 50 Cent said to a room full of fans at a CONSOL Energy Center industry insider invitation-only meet-and-greet event.
