Two teenage runners have sued their high school after being forbidden from wearing “Save Girls’ Sports” T-shirts, saying they were told by school officials that the “hostile” messages were tantamount to swastikas.
The lawsuit filed last week in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California seeks to overturn the speech code at Martin Luther King High School in Riverside, which prohibits clothing with messages “likely to create a hostile or intimidating environment based on any protected class.”
The motion also asks the court to declare that the Riverside Unified School District has “violated Title IX by failing to provide equal treatment, benefits, and opportunities for girls in athletic competition.”
