High school sued over 'racially divisive, anti-Semitic' ideology
The lawsuit, filed by Jerome Eisenberg in Los Angeles court, alleges that the head of Brentwood School, Michael Riera, pulled a "bait-and-switch with the school's curriculum and culture" after accepting parents' tuition payments.
After enrollment commitments had already been paid in the Summer of 2020, Eisenberg states that"Brentwood surreptitiously changed its curriculum and policies," in part, by giving control of its"curriculum and community policies to its Office of Equity and Inclusion." For example, in his daughter's class, the books"To Kill a Mockingbird" and"Lord of the Flies" were removed and replaced with books such as"Stamped" by Ibram X. Kendi."For instance, English Department told parents that if they wanted their children to read Shakespeare or Hemingway, they should do it in their own free time," the lawsuit alleges.
The lawsuit also alleges that students were "forced" to study charts on "Becoming Anti-Racist" that made "bigoted assumptions about them and required them to engage in political activism based on those assumptions."
