Memphis Principal Accused of Outing Gay Students
In September 2007, Daphne Beasley, the principal of Hollis F. Price Middle College High School in South Memphis asked her staff to give her the names of students who were couples, heterosexual and homosexual, because she wanted to keep an eye on them to cut down on public displays of affection.
She's accused of publicly posting the names of those students, including two boys, Andrew and Nicholas, who had just started dating. The ACLU says that in doing so, Beasley revealed their relationship to other students, teachers and even their parents.
