Chilean Government Faces Scrutiny for NAMBLA-linked LGBT group

The Chilean government is facing growing scrutiny after sponsoring and approving the distribution of a new LGBTQIA+ children’s book in public schools, despite longstanding pedophile-related controversies surrounding the organization behind it. The book, Ariel es una niña (Ariel Is a Girl), produced by the Movimiento de Integración y Liberación Homosexual (MOVILH), is being promoted as the country’s first story aimed at introducing “trans childhoods” to young readers.

The story follows a young male character named Ariel as he introduces his new “female” identity to his friends and family. According to Radio Nuevo Mundo, the book is intended to “open pathways of understanding and accompaniment of trans childhoods.”

The book is slated for an initial release of 5,000 copies, which will be distributed across kindergartens and libraries throughout Chile. It carries official sponsorships from the Sub-secretariat of Childhood, the Defensoría de la Niñez, the Pedagogy in Early Childhood Education program of the University of Chile, the Faculty of Psychology of the Universidad Diego Portales (and its Project T on trans childhoods), and the Gender & Diversity Unit of the Liceo Experimental Manuel de Salas.

However, Chilean child-safeguarding advocates are raising concerns not only about the book’s content but also about the organization behind it. MOVILH has been embroiled in years of controversy, particularly regarding allegations of its leadership’s support for and sympathies toward pedophiles.

Under Jiménez’s leadership, however, MOVILH was among the few organizations that opposed the proposal and voted against removing the pedophile groups from ILGA. Jiménez was ultimately expelled from MOVILH in 1994 after voting in favor of maintaining ILGA’s affiliation with the pro-pedophile political groups, but he subsequently took control of the organization’s intellectual property and continued on with his leadership.
