Latina student sues school over flag sash ban.
A Colorado high school senior, Naomi Villasano, is suing her school district for violating her right to free speech after officials denied her request to wear a sash with the U.S. and Mexican flags during her graduation. The district claimed it didn't permit flags on regalia to avoid causing offense, but Villasano argued that she's "100% American and 100% Mexican" and wants to represent her culture. The lawsuit calls upon the defendants to let her wear the sash at her graduation and claims that the district is discriminating against certain students and their heritage.
