ACLU Defends Montpelier Teacher in Free Speech Case
The American Civil Liberties Union accuses the Montpelier Vermont school board of revoking English teacher Edward Seaver III’s contract for his civil rights activity and political opinions. The group argues the charges of unbecoming attitudes violate due process and First Amendment rights, citing Seaver’s involvement with civil rights projects, church study groups, and testimony to state legislators.
