This seems to be pretty polarizing. What are your thoughts, friends? https://www.comicsands.com/arj-barker-ejected-breastfeeding-mom-2667857560.html?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=infeed&utm_campaign=linkprogram

@georgetakei I'm in agreement with others here that he was NTA. But I am very disappointed by the article's clickbait headline that strongly implied she was kicked out FOR breastfeeding, not that it was incidental. It's unnecessarily inflammatory.

We know exactly why the school board canceled his event. https://www.comicsands.com/pa-school-cancels-maulik-pancholy-2667820638.html?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=infeed&utm_campaign=linkprogram

@georgetakei An anti-bullying talk is a "political event." Puuulease. 🙄

@georgetakei For those who are interested, the Board held a special meeting last night on this topic. After some Board member apologies and 5+ hours of public comments, 95% of which critical of this decision and in support of LGBTQ+ rights, the Board voted 5-4 to reinstate the talk as originally planned. The fact that it was such a close vote was still disappointing, but still a win for the community. Based on many of the comments, I expect a shakeup in the Board after next year's election.
