In this case the protestors were fighting against Critical Race Theory & transgender policies being imposed by their local school board in Virginia.

Yes, business as usual for those so-called "progressives" --

Encouraging white shame, patronizing to blacks, pandering to transgendered people, encouraging children to question their sexuality and to further encourage them if they say they are not cisgendered, hindering free speech, encouraging people to report those who do not share their opinions --

Yes, just business as usual -- and all of the above promoted by the actions of the Loudon School Board, as described in just one article.

I think the parents should sue the school board.

At least some citizens are becoming aware now and lawfully assembling to protest Communist-inspired mandates.

Ok, so some were arrested. So what exactly are they protesting? Do we have links & lesson plans with the teachings? Does anyone have numerous examples of critical race
Teachings that they find so offensive or is this just more broad knee jerk reactions without anything to back it up?

Yet nothing from you about the arrest of people for peaceably (and yes, peaceably according to the local DC news outlets) trying to exercise their First Amendment rights.

The Board suspended public comment, which was what started the protest.

Plenty of easy to access info out there, including CD, regarding parent's opposition to CRT and why. From both blacks and whites.

Do your own research, assuming your questions are sincere. And that's a big assumption on my part.

This School Board again?

They are trying to stifle the kids on what they can, and cannot say.

Uh, No!
