Anti-Bush T-shirt banned at Michigan school
Wednesday, February 19, 2003 Posted: 4:40 PM EST (2140 GMT)
DEARBORN, Michigan (AP) -- School officials ordered a 16-year-old
student to either take off a T-shirt emblazoned with the words
"International Terrorist" and a picture of President Bush and or go home,
saying they worried it would inflame passions at the school where a
majority of students are Arab-American.
The student, Bretton Barber, chose to go home. He said he wore the shirt
Monday to express his anti-war position and for a class assignment in which he
wrote a compare-contrast essay on Bush and Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.
Schools spokesman Dave Mustonen said students have the right to freedom of
expression, but educators are sensitive to tensions caused by the conflict with
Iraq.
"It was felt that emotions are running very high," Mustonen said.
Dearborn is the center of an Arab-American community of about 300,000 in
southeastern Michigan. About 55 percent of the district's 17,600 students are
Arab-American.
Judge Rules in Favor of Michigan Student's Right to Wear Anti-War T-Shirt to School
(10/1/2003)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Bretton Barber refused to back down after school officials objected to his t-shirt message.
DETROIT - In a victory for students' free speech rights, a federal judge has ruled that the Dearborn teenager who was prohibited
from wearing a t-shirt with a picture of President Bush that reads, "International Terrorist" must be allowed to wear the shirt to
school.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan filed the lawsuit in federal court last February against the Dearborn Public Schools for
violating the First Amendment rights of the student.
"The court's decision reaffirms the principle that students don't give up their right to express opinions on matters of public
importance once they enter school," said Kary Moss, Executive Director of the ACLU of Michigan. "Schools are not speech-free
zones."
In granting the order, Judge Patrick J. Duggan noted that "there is no evidence that the t-shirt created any disturbance or
disruption" in the school and that "the record does not reveal any basis for [the assistant principal's] fear aside from his belief that
the t-shirt conveyed an unpopular political message."
Judge Duggan further rejected the school district's argument that the schoolyard is an inappropriate place for political
debate. As he wrote in the decision, "In fact, as [the courts] have emphasized, students benefit when school officials provide
an environment where they can openly express their diverging viewpoints and when they learn to tolerate the opinions of
others."
Bretton Barber, a senior at Dearborn High School, wore the t-shirt to express his concern about the President's policies on the
potential war in Iraq. School administrators asked him to remove the t-shirt, turn it inside out, or go home. The school's justification
was that the shirt might cause a disruption despite the fact that he wore the shirt for three hours without incident.
"I wore the shirt to spark discussion among the students on an issue I cared deeply about," Barber said. "I haven't decided
when I'll wear the shirt again, but now I have the confidence of knowing that I have the right to wear it."
Andrew Nickelhoff, an ACLU of Michigan Cooperating Attorney who argued the case, called the ruling "an important civics lesson
for students everywhere. This case teaches that the First Amendment protects our right to express our opinions, and that
sometimes we must have the courage -- as Brett Barber did -- to defend our rights."
