Breaking: @SLF_Liberty has filed a discrimination lawsuit against Evanston School District. The school engaged in racial segregation, depicted “whiteness” as a devil, and taught that whites are inherently oppressive.
Teachers were separated by race, instructed on the problems with "white talk" and "white privilege," and required to participate in "privilege walks."

Students as young as kindergarten were separated by race into "affinity groups," told to participate in "privilege walks" based on their skin color, and given books depicting "whiteness" as a devil that "mess[es] endlessly" with "all fellow humans of color."

The children were also taught "whiteness is a bad deal," white people send "overt and subliminal messages" that they are "superior" and black people are "bad, ugly, and inferior," and color-blindness is racist.
5/6
The school website proclaimed 5-year-old children, "especially while children," are not "racial innocents." The complaint alleges these discriminatory and hostile practices violate Title VI of the Civil Rights Act and the Equal Protection guarantee.
