The case of a Black high school student in Texas who received in-school suspension for wearing dreadlocks has escalated into a legal battle. The student's family, backed by the CROWN Act that outlaws racial discrimination based on hairstyles, filed a complaint with the Texas Education Agency. In response, the school district filed a lawsuit to determine if their dress code violates the CROWN Act. This incident follows a previous clash over the dress code involving another Black male student at the same school. The student's family plans to file a federal lawsuit against the district.
