School boards become ground zero for country’s culture wars | TheHill
School board meetings across the country have become ground zero for the country s culture wars, often resulting in combative and confrontational forums as students prepare to head back to school in the fall.
In Tennessee, health care workers faced threats from angry crowds after a Williamson County School Board meeting, while a school board meeting in Clarkstown, N.Y., was called off after attendees refused to wear masks.
The recent incidents come roughly two months after protests erupted in Loudoun County, Virginia, over the rights of transgender students. That school board recently voted 7-2 to expand the rights of transgender students.
