Children harassed and prevented from going to class by fellow students

A twelve year old girl was prevented from accessing her locker, along with other students who intentionally formed a human wall to prevent minority students from getting to their destinations at DeWitt Junior High School.  The specific student, who is Hispanic in heritage, was told to go back to her country and that Trump would make America great again.

Another student of Asian ethnicity was threatened with deportation by fellow students.

The school seemed to respond in irritation to parents who took to the media with their complaints.

While under normal circumstances, most would agree that school disciplinary situations should be handled privately, this sort of overt racism and harassment is directly connected to our President-Elect and deserves the full, shining light of the first amendment upon it.
