A Wisconsin mother and conservative activist has won a free speech case after being sued for defamation over social media posts criticizing her school district’s "woke" priorities.
Scarlett Johnson, a leader in Moms for Liberty’s Wisconsin chapter, was sued by Mary MacCudden, a former English teacher and "Social Justice Coordinator" for the Mequon-Thiensville School District (MTSD), after Johnson made critical posts on social media in October 2022.
Johnson posted a screenshot of MacCudden's LinkedIn profile and wrote, "Why the hell am I paying for a ‘Social Justice Coordinator’ in my school district?" She added, "This is just what @mtschools needs; more woke, White women w/ a god complex. Thank you, White savior."
In other posts, Johnson described DEI specialists as "woke lunatics" and "bullies" who "bully" parents "into silence and compliance."
