1) 🚨BREAKING: Parents file lawsuit against Villa Duchesne High School for "intentional racial discrimination" against white students, and using "coercion, intimidation, and threats" to indoctrinate students into Critical Race Theory.
However, the class where this vent allegedly took place was videotaped, and upon review no such event had occurred.
During a meeting, the principal and a faculty member allowed a black student to aggressively verbally berate the daughter, without intervention.
Faculty told daughter the sticker was racist and "made to crush the BLM movement," and that "simply having that sticker, you should expect to be treated like a racist."
Other faculty insisted that the daughter "declare that she 'felt safe'" and "it was all in her head."
"I'm gonna throw hands on this bitch"
"That bitch needs to get punched in the face"
"She needs to be beaten up"
"I'm sick of that racist bitch—we need to end her"
Instead of protecting the daughter from threats and violence, the school subjected her to more.

unsafe. Clare has every right to her lived experience. But she can't, and you can't justifiably speak out on favour of listening to lived experience but cherry pick the lived experiences you are going to listen to. Why are the lived experiences of most people with ME dismissed?
Why is it such a source of collective outrage that a person with fatigue following a viral illness gets better?https://t.co/5lcwQBPLU5
