The Brandeis Center, Anti-Defamation League, American Jewish Committee and Potomac Law Group filed suit on behalf of the Brandeis Center and its membership arm, So-CUE (Southern Californians for Unbiased Education), comprised of Orange County and Santa Ana residents, against the Santa Ana Unified School District (SAUSD). The lawsuit alleges violations of California’s open meetings law, including failing to provide proper public notice before approving multiple ethnic studies courses containing anti-Jewish bias and for refusing to protect the public, including members of the Jewish community, from intimidation and harassment at Board meetings. It is intended to prevent antisemitic material from being taught in Santa Ana schools while the Board goes through the process of approving courses in a lawful manner.
