Houman Harouni, a lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, said the outcome could have implications for religious studies at public schools, too. If it becomes possible to argue that removing books about LGBTQ students constitutes discrimination against those students, he predicted, activists on the religious right will try to extend that argument to religious students in order to push for the greater availability and teaching of school materials on religion.
“Religious minorities are also a protected class,” Harouni said, “but many schools don’t seem to have much of a problem limiting texts that promote a particular region.”
