The Hinckley-Finlayson School Board has banned Indigenous students from performing a drum song at their high school graduation. The reason that they are giving has been changing. At first the claim was that they didn't want to have any extracurricular activities as part of graduation. Now they are trying to cite religious reasons. We urge folks to call on the School Board to reverse its ban. You can email the School District at HFISD2165@isd2165.org We also urge you to sign this petition: https://chng.it/HjdqX2TnTC If the ban isn't lifted folks are urged to show up on May 24 at 7pm at 201 Main Street in Hinckley to stand in solidarity with Indigenous students.
Here is a video clip from WCCO on the issue: https://northwoods-socialists.blogspot.com/2024/05/indigenous-students-hinckley-finlayson.html
