The father of a 14-year-old Michigan student is suing his daughter’s school district and teacher on her behalf, alleging she was repeatedly humiliated and told to “go back to your country” when she refused to stand for and recite the Pledge of Allegiance.
The complaint was filed Wednesday by the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan and the Arab American Civil Rights League acting for Jacob Khalaf on behalf of his daughter, Danielle Khalaf, who is a U.S. citizen of Palestinian descent. She was attending East Middle School in the Plymouth-Canton Community Schools District at the time of the incident.
Deport the whole family.
