Description

In 2021, a new battleground in America's political and cultural wars emerged--local school boards.


Seemingly overnight, parents across the country joined with activist groups and political figures at all levels to engage in heated--sometimes violent--fights over issues such as COVID mandates, retrofitting bathrooms to accommodate changing gender representation, and the teaching of American history through the lens of race.


At the epicenter of this outrage machine was Loudoun County, a suburb of Washington, D.C., and the wealthiest county in the nation.


As the county's beloved public schools information officer for more than twenty years, Wayde Byard had a front-row seat to the transformation of public education from the bedrock of community to a vicious political knife-fight, complete with death threats and arrests after riotous meetings.


But it wasn't until the sexual assault of a high school girl by a boy who was described as wearing a dress became national news that he became something he never expected--a target of a politically motivated felony investigation.


Accused, along with the superintendent, by an ambitious, conservative governor and attorney general of covering up the crime, Byard--who most students knew from his popular announcements of snow days--was ultimately acquitted of a perjury charge but left with a troubling awareness that what happened to him could happen to anyone.


The Battle for Loudoun County provides a rare and intimate window into the dangers of America's "bathroom wars" and the culture of outrage that, if left unchecked, will tear our country apart.
