         <description><![CDATA[<div>&nbsp;On May 22 2020, Everett De’Andre Arnold, Sandy Arnold, and Cindy Bradford (on behalf of her minor son K.B.) filed a <a href="https://www.naacpldf.org/wp-content/uploads/128-2021.03.09-Amended-Complaint.pdf"><strong>lawsuit</strong></a>against the Barbers Hill Independent School District (BHISD), its Board of Trustees, and additional individual defendants challenging its discriminatory hair policy. Mr. Arnold and K.B. were informed by BHISD earlier this year that they must either cut their natural locs or no longer participate in regular classes and school activities, including Mr. Arnold’s graduation ceremony. The plaintiffs are represented by the <a href="https://www.naacpldf.org/">NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc.</a> (LDF) and pro bono co-counsel Akin Gump Strauss Hauer &amp; Feld LLP (Akin Gump).&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>&nbsp;Source : <a href="https://www.naacpldf.org/case-issue/arnold-family-v-barbers-hill-independent-school-district/">https://www.naacpldf.org/case-issue/arnold-family-v-barbers-hill-independent-school-district/<br></a><br></div>]]></description>
