CBS affiliate: Southern Poverty Law Center, National Center for Lesbian Rights and Faegre & Benson sue Minneapolis School district over anti-gay bullying

“There is something seriously wrong in the Anoka-Hennepin School District, and district officials know it,” said Kate Kendell, executive director for the National Center for Lesbian Rights. “This epidemic of harassment — unlike anything we’ve seen in neighboring districts — is plainly fueled by the district’s shameful and illegal policy singling out LGBT people and LGBT people alone for total exclusion from acknowledgement within the classroom.”
Lawrence O'Donnell notes that the 40,000-student Anoka-Hennepin School District, the largest in Minnesota, is in Michele Bachmann's district.
