The Ridiculous - and Sexist - Reason This Little Boy Was Sent Home From School

[sheshe2]

22. It has to do with one's so called "religion"

when they rule our courts and rule women's rights and tell men to be men and women to be women. That is the religious right. They are hell bent on telling us what to believe.

Yet, from the OP.

According to Malachi’s parents, who are part of the Navajo Nation, cutting his hair is against their religion.

“Our hair is sacred to us, it make us who we are,” April Wilson, Malachi’s mom, told KOB 4...

Sexist? Damn straight!

So

Their religion is denied. Why is one persons religious rights allowed to stand and yet another is denied?

BTW

Rules is rules and can't do anything without paperwork. And people suffer because of it.

Mom had the paperwork and then she got more. And if you read below, she was already told she would have problems with the school.

“I ENROLLED HIM BACK IN JUNE SO I THOUGHT WE WERE ALL SET FOR MALACHI TO ATTEND SCHOOL ON MONDAY,” WILSON SAID. “I CHECKED THE ‘NATIVE AMERICAN’ BOX ON THE ENROLLMENT FORM. PEOPLE TOLD ME I WAS GOING TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE PEOPLE AT THE SCHOOL.”

After Malachi and his mother left the school, Wilson called the Navajo Nation to assist in the documentation process. She also called a member of the American Indian Movement, who called the school district’s superintendant.

By mid-afternoon, the school called Wilson to inform her that Malachi could attend school the next day if she was willing to sign an exemption form with a brief explanation why Malachi wears his hair long.

“The principal asked me if I could pull his hair back and even tuck it into his shirt to hide it,” said Wilson. “I braid it all the time, so that was not a problem to keep it confined. But, I would not agree to have him put his hair down his shirt collar.

So...

I guess a boy has to look like a boy and a girl has to look like a girl according to someones warped standards.

Remember this?

So...Malachi wears his hair long. Guess that means he looks like a girl. And
Sunnie wears her hair short and was kicked out of school for dressing like a boy.
