HOUSTON (AP) — The family of a Black high school student in Texas has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the state’s governor and attorney general over being suspended by his school district for his hairstyle. Darryl George has been serving an in-school suspension since Aug. 31 at his Houston-area school. School officials say George’s dreadlocks violate the district’s dress code regarding hair length for boys. George’s mother and the family’s attorney filed their lawsuit on Saturday in Houston federal court. They deny the teenager’s hairstyle violates the dress code. George’s family accuses Gov. Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton of failing to enforce the CROWN Act.
