Violent clashes erupt at Glendale school board meeting over Pride curriculum.

TL;DR Summary
A school district meeting in Glendale, California, where administrators voted to recognize Pride month, led to protests involving several hundred people. The district has celebrated Pride month in years past, but a recent rise in anti-LGBTQ+ political sentiment has led to growing tensions against the community. At least three people were arrested for unlawful use of pepper spray and willfully obstructing officers in the course of their duties. The protests come just days after the Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education also faced protests against its resolution to incorporate lessons and programs related to the LGBTQ+ community and history.
