Are Dreadlocks American? A Texas Superintendent Had This to Say About Black Hair … – https://www.theroot.com/are-dreadlocks-american-a-texas-superintendent-had-thi-1851190543

“Just when we thought that suspending students over their hairstyles would be left in 2023, a Texas superintendent has decided to take it to another level. After Barbers Hill High School student Darryl George was controversially suspended multiple times over his dreadlocks, the school’s superintendent has now reportedly came out in support of the school’s actions in a very public way.

In an full-page ad taken out in the Houston Chronicle, superintendent Greg Poole justified the school’s response to George’s dreadlocks as a matter of being American. And, according to Poole, being American “requires conformity.”

George was suspended the same week the CROWN ACT went into effect, which is the law that prohibits race-based hair discrimination in Texas workplaces, schools, and housing policies. Yet despite the suspension, George’s family has fought back against his punishment—filing a civil rights lawsuit against Texas Gov. Greg Abbot and Attorney General Ken Paxton.”
