Parent Protests - Domestic Terrorism?

Upon re-reading the article here about the National School Boards Association (NSBA) accusing protesting parents as "domestic terrorists", I must ask, Do we still live in the United States of America or  has the Peoples' Republic of China taken over?

We must now learn from the Richland Two school board exactly what their position is on the effort by the NSBA to silence parents.

The Richland Two School Board is a member of the South Carolina School Boards Assn. (SCSBA)

The South Carolina School Boards Assn. is a member of the National School Boards Assn.

Where does the Richland Two school board stand on the NSBA request to the Biden Administration.

Where does the SCSBA stand?

Let's get a clear statement from Richland Two as to whether it supports or opposes the characterization of opposition to Critical Race Theory and COVID-19 restrictions (including mask mandates) as "domestic terrorism", and ask the Richland Two school board where the SCSBA stands. Does it support the NSBA request?

Address your request for clarification to the full school board and superintendent. Request a discussion at the next board meeting on October 12. Email addresses can be found at www.richland2.org/School-Board/Members

For your convenience, the email addresses for the board members (and the two trustees-elect) and the superintendent are 
docholmesschoolboard2@gmail.com, jamesmanning@richland2.org, ameliamckie@richland2.org, lindsayagostini@richland2.org, puttingstudentsfirst2012@gmail.com, lashondamcfadden@richland2.org, cherylcautionparker@richland2.org, badavis@richland2.org, 

The following email is being sent to the school board and the superintendent:


Board Members, trustees-elect Holmes and McKie, and Superintendent,

I request the following topic be placed on the agenda of the October 12, 2021 School Board Regular Meeting: Discussion of the request to the Biden Administration by the National Schools Boards Association (NSBA) to declare parents protesting against Critical Race Theory and the COVID-19 restrictions as domestic terrorists. Clear, unambiguous statement by the Richland Two School Board of its position on the NSBA request and of its own position on that request. Preparation of a Resolution to the South Carolina School Boards Association condemning the NSBA request to the Biden Administration.

If this item will not be placed on the October 12, 2021 Agenda, I request a reply by email from the District stating the position of Richland Two on the request of the NSBA to the Biden Administration described above.

I request a report from the Richland 2 delegates to the SCSBA on the SCSBA's position on the NSBA request to the Biden Administration.

Sincerely,
Gus Philpott
