He believes that lawsuits can provide a deterrent and that some parents \u2014 and, of course, their attorneys \u2014 could even see significant money for standing up for their rights.<\/p>\n<p>One purpose of litigation is to create precedent that keeps the race-obsessed ideology that some call neo-racism out of public schools. Public-interest law firms look for a few cases with specific fact patterns, volunteer to take to cases for free, and aim to appeal them all the way to the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s also another approach that might help more people in the short term, O\u2019Brien said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you really clean a few clocks, sue the hell out of a couple schools, the insurance companies are going to take notice. They\u2019re the ones who have to pay\u201d judgments against school districts, he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe insurance companies are not woke. They\u2019re not anything. If they see this pedagogy as a looming liability, they\u2019re going to send their adjustors out there and clamp down,\u201d he told The Daily Wire. \u201cIt will actually be really interesting if lawsuits triggered enforcement not from the state, but from the insurance industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In short, these cases are \u201cretributive,\u201d demanding compensation for pain and suffering and denial of constitutional rights by the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s emotional damages tied to First Amendment retaliation, to Title VI discrimination\u2026 Title VI is the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Any school that receives federal funds can\u2019t engage in discrimination. If you direct the kids to label their identity or assign someone as an oppressor, that\u2019s compelled speech. Because their identities are forming, directing them to assert their gender or racial identities is compelled speech and invasion of privacy, which is a 14th Amendment violation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s up to a jury to decide how much that is worth. Because these are kids, they are probably not going to be nominal damages. If you have a kid claiming emotional distress or sexual or racial harassment, I think a jury would be receptive to that. And you may get a pretty good settlement offer especially if the case gets press,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Lawsuits would sue the teacher personally, as well as supervisors and the school board.<\/p>\n<p>Because of the interest around the politicization of K-12 education, many of these cases could be funded through donations from crowdsourcing websites, he said. Other strong cases could be taken on contingency by private lawyers, who work for a percentage of any settlement or judgment rather than up-front fees, he said. Nonprofit public-interest law firms are barred from working on contingency.<\/p>\n<p>Those who have had divisive ideas about inherent oppression forced on their innocent children, have been ignored by school bureaucracies, and want to seek relief in the courts should make sure to have their facts thoroughly documented before approaching a lawyer and be prepared to summarize the fact pattern in a clear-cut manner, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Or as callers to 1-866-SUE-WOKE will hear:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you or a loved one has been harmed by critical race theory and would like to sue, please leave a brief message and Jonathan will be with you shortly.
