The United States Department of Education Office For Civil Rights has opened an investigation into potential Title II and Title IX violations over the death of transgender teen, Nex Benedict.
A step in the right direction, I still don’t see anything about the medical malpractice that happened with not calling medical support after their head was put into the ground repeatedly
Oklahoma’s appointing an anti-trans TikTok celebrity who encourages hatred, violence & fear isn’t new. There’s a long list of people & atrocities committed by Okies. Their self proclamation of being the “buckle of the Bible Belt” highlights the religious zealots systematically destroying anyone who doesn’t meet their guidelines of a “good, right and moral “Christian”. Oklahoma is just as evil as Texas. Not Ok, OK.
The attached letters make my heart SING!!! If this is the way to stop the bullying going on of our larger Community, I'm going to start making complaints like there's no tomorrow. If the enemy wishes to bring up Title IX, so will we. Brilliance. May Nex's memory be a revolutionary blessing.
I hope you haven't said this already, but I'm questioning who you're talking about in the sentence ending with, "whose posts were followed by threats to a teacher in Nex’s school district who he admired." Is that talking about Nex? If so, Nex was not a 'he' but a 'they'. Right?

Late for Nex—but hella necessary for all the terrified trans and NB kids in OK. (And elsewhere.)
Good! But too late for Nex.

I mean, I'm glad something's finally moving, but... 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘯. The Fed never wakes up until there's blood on the ground, does it?
Here's a letter asking for Ryan Walters' immediate removal from office: https://hrc-prod-requests.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/Justice-for-Nex-Benedict-Letter.pdf.

About fricking time.

And it looks like Dolt-45 will be back in the White House...
Batten down the hatches my friends. We're in for a rough ride. 😔
