Summary
Kimberly Hermann, Chief Counsel for Southeastern Legal Foundation (SLF), explains the legal case SLF is involved in regarding Missouri teachers and educators being compelled by school districts to be trained in critical race theory ‘equity and anti-racist training’, with some districts going so far as telling teachers how they should vote. The lawsuit is centered around the First Amendment, as the training was required for every employee, from a ‘bus driver, driving kids to school, all the way up to an AP history teacher’.
