The American Bar Association's (ABA) House of Delegates will vote Monday during the group's midyear meeting in Louisville, Kentucky, on a proposed resolution to oppose laws that ban teaching about race. Reuters reports that nearly a dozen ABA entities have jointly submitted a resolution opposing any federal, state or local laws or policies that “restrict the teaching and inclusion of studies on the experiences, roles and contributions of any individual or group” on the basis of their race, gender identity, sexual orientation or religion, among other identifiers. The proposal also opposes restrictions on books or other school resources that address those topics.
