There have been weekly protests of this shit across the country since the asshole was elected. It’s not helping. And even the “opposition party” is capitulating to the bullshit. What else are we supposed to do?
A good chunk is due to the religious right slowly infiltrating our school boards since the 70’s, undermining education. Also our school system is developed to make people just smart enough to do jobs, but not smart enough to question them. We aren’t taught critical thinking. Also being taught hyper individualism works against us taking collective action as adults.
For something like this you likely could find a lawyer to do this pro bono. Maybe even the ACLU would get involved.
