HOUSTON, Texas — Civil rights activists Dr. Candice Matthews and Quanell X are asking Yeshiva Torat Emet to investigate Angela Johnson’s conduct during a Nov. 6 courthouse gathering in downtown Houston. The school is at 11330 Braesridge Drive in southwest Houston.

In a complaint addressed to the school’s principal, administration and board of directors, the activists said they saw Johnson yell and use profanity. They also cited social media posts they attributed to Johnson that included personal insults and a challenge to Dr. Matthews to a five-round boxing match.

The activists said their team confirmed Johnson’s employment by phone. They asked the school to determine whether she was scheduled to work that day and whether any absence was authorized.

The gathering drew a large crowd and officers from several agencies to the Harris County Juvenile Justice Center, where a judge dismissed a protective order application against Sarah Fields.

The activists asked the school to review video footage and screenshots, determine whether Johnson violated any employee policies and take corrective action if warranted. They requested a written response about the review process within 10 business days.

Johnson’s employment and any response from her or the school remained unverified Monday.
