Chicago Public Schools under fire for removal of Black principals: 'Pattern and practice of discrimination'
Fox News
Trial attorney Ben Crump held a press conference outside CPS headquarters on Thursday to call out Chicago Public Schools for the removal of three Black principals.
The group, which included trial attorney Ben Crump and Reverend Jesse Jackson, banded together to "demand justice for CPS principals who have faced wrongful termination due to alleged corruption and discrimination." Joshua Q. Nelson is a reporter for Fox News Digital.
The press release sent by Crump also claimed that CPS built cases against terminated Black principals based on "fabricated reports filled with false claims." Joshua focuses on politics, education policy ranging from the local to the federal level, and the parental uprising in education.
Crump, blasted the district for their "pattern and practice of discrimination" and called on the Justice Department to launch an investigation into the firing of three principals in particular.
