A suburban Atlanta school board has voted to terminate the contract of a teacher who read a book about gender identity to gifted fifth-graders – the latest salvo in a nationwide clash over how issues like gender and race are discussed in public school classrooms.

Shame on them.
The Southern Poverty Law center is basically an antihate organization. They track hate groups throughout the US and are a major boggeyman of the right. The article isn’t very clear, but I think they are representing the teacher, not the parent.
Ah good one! Sounds way more logical 😅
