Chaos erupted at a Southern California district's school board meeting Thursday, when communist protesters clashed with parents' rights activists.
At the meeting, the Orange Unified School Board passed a parental notification policy similar to ones passed in five other districts across the state, that would require staff to notify parents when their child identifies as transgender.
Before the deciding vote, members of the Revolutionary Communist Party disrupted the event, with one shouting down supporters with a megaphone. This led to a shouting match between both sides before the communist protesters were ushered out by officers, the Los Angeles Times reported.
During the open-comment portion before the disruption, a woman who identified herself as a member of the radical group objected to discussing the policy with "fascists."
"We're getting organized for a real revolution to get rid of the system," she told the audience. "Any kind of trying to negotiate with any of these fascists in the room, on the board, is illegitimate."
She then called for anyone "with humanity for LGBTQ people" to "get ready for a revolution to overthrow this whole system that gave birth to this White supremacy and this male supremacy."
Videos of the speakers were shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, by Protect Kids California activist Jonathan Zachreson.
The school board ultimately voted to pass the policy shortly before midnight on Thursday. The resolution passed unanimously, after three board members who were opposed to the measure walked out in protest.
The vote came one day after California Attorney General Rob Bonta sued Chino Valley Unified School District for passing a similar policy in July, arguing these policies "unconstitutionally discriminate" against LGBTQ students and violate their privacy rights.
The Revolutionary Communist Party told Fox News Digital the two speakers were Michelle Xai and Lucha Bright, "revcoms (revolutionary communists) and members of the Revolution Club, Los Angeles."
