Scarsdale School District is facing growing scrutiny over what many community members describe as a troubling double standard on free speech.
A middle school student wearing a keffiyeh and pro-peace clothing reportedly faced harassment, cyberbullying, and administrative escalation. A parent publicly described a student for wearing a keffiyeh on stage during a school performance. In another incident, a school employee was reportedly required to remove a Palestinian flag pin, while Israeli flyers showing the Golan Heights & West Bank as part of Israel remained displayed without issue.
Students, families, and educators deserve equal protection and equal freedom of expression—without fear of retaliation or selective enforcement based on viewpoint.
We’re holding Scarsdale School District accountable.

When Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti were shot and killed by ICE, what followed was not only the taking of life but the swift reengineering of truth. Officials labeled them violent domestic terrorists; federal accounts insisted on facts that footage contradicted. What was captured on video — gestures, angles, the tempo of events — undercut the official narration. The cameras recorded one reality; the custodians of power insisted on another. The message was implicit and corrosive: don’t trust your own eyes; trust us.
