Several dozen members of the Washington Teachers Union, parents and other activists gathered in front of a D.C. school visited by DeVos.

“If he’s our president, I have the right to hold him accountable and ask him to take a stance that is anti-hate and anti-racist.”

Union leaders say they want teachers and students to be protected beyond the classroom.
