Tara Part Is an Eighth Grader at Anita Reese's Middle

Tara Part is an eighth grader at Anita Reese's Middle School. Although she's only 13, Tara's already politically active as a member of the group, PLAY (Peace Love Answer Youth). In protest of U.S. involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq, she wears a picture of an oil barrel on her shirt. Principal Miss Nomer tells Tara she may no longer wear such an emblem. According to the Supreme Court, Tara will be prohibited from wearing the symbol because students' free expression rights are not protected in school.
