Pancholy was disinvited from speaking at Mountain View Middle School after concerns were raised about his political activism and 'lifestyle' by school board members.
Board members expressed discomfort with the possibility of Pancholy discussing his children's book, 'The Best at It,' which features a gay Indian American boy.
A former parent at the school, Trisha Comstock, labeled the decision as 'homophobic' and potentially harmful, creating a Change.org petition to reinstate the assembly.
