First Liberty



Exclusive Video Interview with FLI Client Daniela Barca

We're halfway through #PublicSchoolsWeek...and we continue
celebrating the incredible reclamation of religious liberty happening
in our nation's schools. Today, we're sharing with you the
victory of a brave teenage student who reclaimed her right to live out
her faith.

It's the story of Daniela Barca, a New York student who wanted
to form a faith-based club at her school. Shockingly, the
school's administration repeatedly denied her application, and
even suggested that a club meeting "to gather and talk about
spreading the hope of Jesus" could not be recognized as an
official club unless it modified its viewpoint to something more
"generic" and "couldn't limit it to the
Christian faith."

The good news is that Daniela sought First Liberty's legal help,
and because our attorneys quickly intervened, the school reversed its
decision and Daniela was allowed to form a club with those who share
her Christian faith.

In this exclusive video, watch FLI Counsel Keisha Russell and our team
talk with Daniela in more detail about her desire to live out her faith
by starting a club. In it, she also shares that even though it's
sometimes difficult to take a stand, it's important to stand strong by
your faith...because reclaiming religious liberty for one student is a
giant step in restoring the rights of all students throughout the country.

Our victory on behalf of Daniela should embolden and encourage
students nationwide, and it gives us great hope for a bright future.
It's proof that together we're achieving triumphs and
ushering in a new era of religious liberty to be enjoyed by Daniela,
as well as by our children and grandchildren.

Yet, opponents of religious freedom are relentlessly trying to
silence, censor and punish students of faith. Attacks on our
students' constitutional rights can happen at any time, to just
about any student.

That's why we need YOU to make your voice heard and sign the
pledge in support of religious liberty in America's public
schools.

If you haven't done so already, please consider adding your name
to this pledge. It takes less than a minute...and by doing so,
you're making a clear statement that our nation's
educational institutions are no place for censorship.

Together with YOUR SUPPORT, John, First Liberty can keep leading the fight for
students like Daniela, and ensure that religious liberty keeps
thriving in our public schools.

Yes, I will sign the statement of support for religious liberty in our
nation's public schools.
