Former Cong. Candidate Accuses Cheyenne School District Of Censorship, Unfairly Masking Students

Cheyenne attorney Darin Smith is asking conservatives in the Cheyenne school district to attend a meeting of the district’s board of trustees on Monday to complain about “inappropriate material” in libraries and the requirement that students wear facemasks in class.

Smith sent an email from his law firm on Friday outlining his position on the two issues that have surfaced within Laramie County School District No. 1, which encompasses Cheyenne.

Smith’s wife, Alicia Smith, sits on the LCSD1 board of trustees.

In his email, Smith, a former congressional candidate, claimed that parents were being censored at LCSD1 school board meetings for bringing up the fact that “pornographic sexual indoctrination material” is available in middle and high school libraries.

Smith pointed to a woman’s testimony given at the last LCSD1 board meeting in November. In the video from the meeting, one woman addresses the board about the book “Monday’s Not Coming” by Tiffany D. Jackson, which is a library book in the district. The book is not part of any school’s curriculum.
