The Issue

On Friday, March 13th, I was asked by a school administrator to cease wearing a keffiyeh on Monday. The administrator had cited multiple complaints from students and faculty alike. The keffiyeh does NOT violate the student dress code! This is a violation of my first amendment rights as well as a violation of ALL students first amendment rights!

 

This comes after a disgusting decision by the Concord Select Board was made to adopt the IHRA (International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance) Definition of Antisemitism. A clear example of how the IHRA is being weaponized against students!

 

Please sign on to demand the district drop the keffiyeh ban!
