Texas School Bans All-Black Clothing, Claims It's Associated With 'Mental Health Issues'

An El Paso, Texas, middle school has banned students from wearing all-black clothing, claiming that the color is "associated with depression and mental health issues."

According to local news station KFOX14, Charles Middle School sent parents a letter informing them that the school's uniform policy would no longer allow students to wear all-black clothing. Instead, the school's dress code was rewritten to only allow students to wear khakis or blue jeans, with black or green polos and sweaters.
