The problem this study addressed was the documented emotional distress among the State of Georgia's educational leaders-bureaucrats serving majority-minority students in the hyper-politicized public policy environment instituted with the codifying of O.C.G.A. 20-11-1 Georgia's General Education Divisive Concept law. The purpose of this study was to explore the emotional impact of the policy on K-12 public educational leaders serving majority-minority students whose academic growth was known to necessitate culturally relevant curriculum at odds with the "Divisive" law using a general qualitative methodology. The theoretical foundation was shaped at the intersection of two salient public policy theories: representative bureaucratic theory and the narrative policy framework. The research focused on identifying the State of Georgia's educational leaders' emotional experiences based on their personal stories about implementing controversial student curriculum frameworks and instructional practices based on the State of Georgia's Divisive Concept law. Analysis of narrative data obtained using semi-structured interviews with 12 educational leaders revealed that the public policy environment of the Divisive Concept law led to feelings of threat and dislike with an associated passive-aggressive emotional and behavioral response. The positive social change implication is wider than including the opportunity to develop more equitable responsive bureaucratic workforces even while considering equitable public policymaking.
