A new project seeks to shine a light on the numerous school districts that have policies effectively chilling speech by encouraging students to report their peers for making what are perceived to be offensive comments.

Parents Defending Education, a grassroots organization that tries to expose objectionable things that kids are being taught in school, recently launched a "bias response systems" tracker that highlights which school districts have policies in place urging students or staff to report incidents of "bias."
