The Southern Poverty Law Center has filed suit against the Moss Point school district in Mississippi Federal Court charging anti-LGBT bullying, harassment and discrimination against LGBT students.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of Destin Holmes, a district student who endured such severe harassment she was eventually driven out of school. She temporarily left the district in March 2012 to be homeschooled after the then-principal at Magnolia Junior High School called her a “pathetic fool” and told her, “I don’t want a dyke in this school.”
