This continuing legal education seminar examines the CROWN Act, “Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair" as related to education law. The CROWN Act prohibits hair discrimination, which may have an impact on educational opportunities because of protective hairstyles including braids, locs, twists, or bantu knots. This CLE will focus on the legal perspective of Black students, who disproportionately wear protective hairstyles such as braids, locs, twists, or bantu knots. Attendees will learn more about the CROWN Act, current case law, and pending CROWN Act legislation across the nation.
