The term &quot;critical race theory&quot; defines a strand of thought that appeared in American law schools in the late 1970s and which looks at racism as a system, enabled by laws and institutions, rather than at the level of individual prejudices. But critics use it as a catch-all phrase that attacks teachers&#039; efforts to confront dark episodes in American history, including slavery and segregation, as well as to tackle racist stereotypes.

I think they\u2019re paying attention a little bit more as to who \u2026 actually has their name on the ballot in these nonpartisan elections, and they know what questions to ask. So, I think in the immediate term, we\u2019re just going to see a huge uptick in just the civic engagement aspect of school board participation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But participation is not the only outcome that will come of shining a light on the interworking of America\u2019s schools,&nbsp;<span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">Marr\u00e9 says. While in some places, like Virginia, there is heavy participation, in others, like Arizona, there are tangible actions parents can take to reclaim their children\u2019s education.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">Marr\u00e9 described to Breitbart News the difference between the two states, saying \u201cthe Virginia stuff obviously gives everyone an idea of the mood and where parents and voters feel about parental engagement, and their kid\u2019s education and that kind of stuff. But, it doesn\u2019t necessarily reflect change.\u201d<br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">\u201cBut that is, to me, what is so interesting about the Souzas\u2019 story, and Arizona writ large, is that there are very few places where there is actually an opportunity for parents to take some action and get some recourse for having their parental rights violated,\u201d&nbsp;Marr\u00e9 continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>As Breitbart News previously reported, Arizona has a Parents\u2019 Bill of Rights that not only allows parents to \u201cdirect the upbringing [and] education \u2026 of their child,\u201d but also creates avenues for recourse when those rights have been abridged.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">Referencing the Souzas\u2019 case, Marr\u00e9, who is a Virginia resident and mother of two, said \u201cthere\u2019s actually going to be, hopefully, a consequence for the teacher who was engaged in this. \u2026&nbsp;And so, if there are a handful of cases like that, that kind of sets the precedent for parents needing to be respected versus parents just yelling in Virginia that we need to be respected,\u201d as Virginia does not afford the same oversight to parents that Arizona does.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">\u201cBecause, you know, no one is going to want to lose their teaching license,\u201d&nbsp;Marr\u00e9 continued. \u201cA Superintendent is not going to want to lose their job because the school board has turned over and isn\u2019t going protect him anymore. So, I think the actual effect of this movement and the mood is still yet to be seen, and there\u2019s a ton of work to do.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18339402\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" readability=\"37\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/NYC-School-1.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18339402\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/NYC-School-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Protesters gather at City Hall to condemn Mayor Bill de Blasio&#039;s handling of the Gifted and Talented (G&amp;T) public school program, Thursday, Oct. 14, 2021, in New York.

And that\u2019s it. Those are my choices. \u2026 But in Arizona? Sure, it\u2019s a little bit of a longer process. But there\u2019s an opportunity to set a precedent.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>As Breitbart News reported, the Souzas hope to set precedent in Arizona, as they are the first family to file a complaint under Arizona\u2019s Parental Bill of Rights law. But the Souzas also told Breitbart News that they hope to set an example for the entire country by encouraging parents to look into what rights they do have in their respective states, and if they do not have adequate rights, demand them of their representatives.<\/p>\n<p>Another potentially precedent-setting case FTL is involved with is a lawsuit against Pennsbury School District in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n<p>In this First Amendment challenge, the plaintiffs in the case are suing the school board becuase they instituted speech-restrictive policies during public comment periods of their meetings. Such policies included reserving the right to cut off a microphone of a speaker if they participated in speech <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thereporteronline.com\/2021\/11\/19\/federal-judge-issues-injunction-against-pennsbury-in-response-to-freedom-of-speech-challenge\/\">deemed<\/a> by the board as&nbsp;\u201cpersonally directed,\u201d \u201cpersonal attacks,\u201d \u201cabusive,\u201d \u201cverbally abusive,\u201d \u201cirrelevant,\u201d \u201cdisruptive,\u201d \u201coffensive,\u201d \u201cinappropriate\u201d or \u201cotherwise inappropriate,\u201d as the Reporter noted. The board also required speakers to announce their home addresses before their remarks.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">\u201cThe moderator of the school board meeting was just shutting these people down for asking questions that, you know, we\u2019re in disagreement with the positions of the board,\u201d&nbsp;Marr\u00e9, whose organization filed an amicus brief in support of the plaintiffs, told Breitbart News. \u201cAnd so these four folks have sued the board they filed. They filed their lawsuit. And actually, just yesterday, there was a preliminary injunction sent down from from the court that actually put a stop to the to the rules set forth by the school board. \u2026 So that\u2019s something that we\u2019re engaged in and following very closely, because, again, similar to the abuses in Arizona, it\u2019s an opportunity to set precedent for the country because we\u2019re seeing the school boards all over the place trying to change their rules so that they don\u2019t have to deal with these parents.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Judge Gene E.K. Pratter of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, who placed the preliminary injunction on the school board, said of the policies that \u201cPublic speech at school board meetings is in fact protected by the First Amendment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In that case, the school board said it will file for appeal.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"7.9487179487179\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A new Vermont education law requires middle and high schools to offer free condoms, the first such law in the nation. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rOmsODoRo5\">https:\/\/t.co\/rOmsODoRo5<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Breitbart News (@BreitbartNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BreitbartNews\/status\/1460318008946139138?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 15, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>When asked how FTL will decide to place their resources with the 2022 midterms coming up,&nbsp;<span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">Marr\u00e9 told Breitbart News that they would be looking for similar statements to failed Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe\u2019s, where he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/09\/29\/terry-mcauliffe-i-dont-think-parents-should-be-telling-schools-what-they-should-teach\/\">said<\/a> \u201cI don\u2019t think parents should be telling schools what they should teach\u201d \u2014 a remark many believe ultimately led to his loss on Election Day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"transcript-snippet__content__body__word\">Marr\u00e9 said the reason FTL Action took out ad buys across Virginia is because McAuliffe \u201cmade his his public policy position on this very clear \u2026 and that statement is in direct conflict with what our organization hopes to achieve, which is academic, not activism, focused education. \u2026 And so that\u2019s the kind of stuff that we will be watching for is that intersection between public policy as it pertains to education, and the parents that we\u2019re hearing from all over the country.
