Just a warning.

This is a series about a pretty raw fight over race and identity.

And at times over the six episodes,

you're going to hear racial slurs and harsh language

that relate to key parts of the story.

We've tried to limit them,

but there are moments when we think it's important to hear the actual words,

however offensive.

Thanks for listening.

I'm going to give you a quick warning.

But school board meetings in South Lake Texas these days are different.

We need to take his information. You do not get to do this.

Tuning into a South Lake school board meeting in 2021 is a little like what they say about pro hockey.

People watch it for the fights.

No more bullying. Let's go.

We've had enough of the nonsense.

On this night in May, more than 60 people have signed up to speak during public comments.

And a lot of them go on talking even after an alarm signals their time is up.

This more you cannot shut us up.

You cannot keep us quiet. Nobody has any respect for you.

You no longer get to implement your woke agenda on Carol Iosteep.

The scene tonight feels more like a political rally than a local government meeting.
