apnews.com/article/hair-discrimination-school-dreadlocks-1efecc37df77d6bc087d71a1b573bed6This has been going on for a while now and is another perfect example of how fucked up Texas' laws and their politics are and going backwards every day, particularly when it comes to monumental breeches of individual rights and liberties. I wouldn't really want them nuked but at this point I'd cut them off completely from federal funds and let them figure it out.

Truth brother.
I love how they say his hair is 'too long' - the basis of them wanting him to cut it, even though he has it tied up for school. I'd love to know the actual measurement, and it they enforce it on white or Hispanic girls with long hair., regardless of if it's tied up or not.

A quick Google action says it's a public school in an "independent district" whatever that means. Since it's not a private school there's not going to be strict codes about appearance that the student and parents would have to agree to before attending. "Long hair" just reminds me of some anti-hippie 1960s bullshit and I'd love to see a picture of the folks in that town/school....... bet you they all look like they were frozen in time at the whites only counter in Selma.
