In this episode, Ryan sits down with Aidan Buzzetti, president of the 1776 Project Foundation, to break down a major lawsuit against the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) over racially discriminatory school assignment policies. Aidan explains how LAUSD’s PHBAO program allegedly gives enrollment advantages to schools with predominantly non-white student populations—resulting in discrimination against white and Middle Eastern students. He walks through the historical roots of the policy, tracing it back to desegregation-era court orders from the 1960s and 1980s that have evolved into today’s controversial practices.

The conversation also explores the real-world challenges of mounting the lawsuit, including fear of retaliation among parents, the courage required for families to come forward, and what happens next in the legal process. Ryan and Aidan discuss why this case could become a national blueprint for challenging similar policies in other school districts.
