Already liberals are officially codifying the racial caste system we live under. In deep blue Portland, government school educrats and unions officially agree that misbehaving students who are not black or ostentatiously sexually perverted must be punished more severely:

A new collective bargaining agreement between Portland Public Schools and its unionized teachers requires school officials to consider a disruptive student’s race, gender identity, and sexual orientation when crafting that student’s disciplinary plan.

When a student exhibits “continuous disruptive behavior,” the agreement says, school officials must develop a “support plan” for the student, which can include disciplinary measures such as detention. That plan “must take into consideration the impact of issues related to the student’s trauma, race, gender identity/presentation, sexual orientation … and restorative justice as appropriate for the student,” according to the agreement.

The agreement explicitly focuses disciplinary policy on “racial equity and social justice.” The objective is not to maintain order in the classroom, but to punish or reward students for their race.

The lunacy isn’t limited to Portland:

The policy change reflects a broader effort at both the federal and local levels to develop race-conscious disciplinary rules for public school students. Earlier this year, for example, the Biden administration released a memo urging schools to refrain from suspending students for truancy, arguing that “significant disparities by race … have persisted in the application of student discipline.” School districts in Washington and Illinois, meanwhile, have adopted disciplinary policies that aim to provide a “culturally responsive” and “restorative approach” to student discipline.

Lighter punishment for those most likely to misbehave will further disrupt classrooms. This is not a bug but a feature. Only when no one is able to learn anything can equity be imposed.
