A furious group of mostly Asian protesters clashed with security personnel at a Brooklyn town hall meeting with schools Chancellor Richard Carranza on Tuesday night after they were denied entry.

Branding him divisive and anti-Asian, the group held a rally calling for his removal ahead of the District 22 gathering in Sheepshead Bay.

NYPD and Department of Education staffers told fuming community organizer Linda Lam that her group’s signs were banned inside the meeting and that they couldn’t enter.

“He wanted to shut us up and shut us down,” Lam said of Carranza, asserting that she and others were manhandled. “This sets a dangerous precedent to silence Asians or any other groups opposed to his policy.”

Video footage shows Lam and others attempting to get through a door to the crowded gathering at one point and being physically blocked.

“We are outraged at this abuse of power,” she said.

Tuesday’s meeting was hosted by Community Education Council 22, which was thrown into controversy last year after a member, Jackie Cody, called Asians “yellow” in an email string with parent leaders.

The language spurred angry protests and calls for her to step down or be removed. CEC 22 suspended her for two meetings and she was not present Tuesday.

Lam said none of the protesting Asians were initially admitted to the meeting. Security officers then only let in those who weren’t carrying signs, she said.

The entire group was eventually admitted after senior Department of Education and NYPD officials intervened.

“We don’t block parents from attending meetings and this confusion was resolved before the meeting began,” said DOE spokesperson Miranda Barbot. “As soon as we were made aware of any issue at the door, we intervened to make sure all parents got in to the public meeting, regardless of the district they are from.”

It was Carranza’s first town hall since his abortive appearance Jan. 16 at District 16 in Queens, where he departed amid jeers and shouting.

While the audience was far more welcoming Tuesday, with many applauding Carranza’s remarks, one attendee tried to address him directly about discipline concerns.

DOE handlers appeared to have learned from the Queens fiasco and had several staffers approach the man and politely offer to address his concerns after the meeting. He stood down without incident.

But as the meeting ended, the Asian faction rose in unison and held up their signs calling for Carranza’s ouster.

Several heated confrontations erupted with Carranza’s backers in the audience, and the exchanges continued outside of the meeting.

Tajh Sutton, president of Community Education Council 14, was among several supporters of the chancellor who held up competing signs across from the protesters outside James Madison High School.

Sutton said Asian anger at Carranza was misplaced and argued that his emphasis on Culturally Responsive Sustaining Education would benefit all racial groups, including theirs.

As the debates raged outside, Carranza critic Charles Vavruska shouted that the tensions were born out of DOE policy.

“This is what Carranza wants!” he yelled. “He is pitting us against each other!”

The chancellor’s backers argued that structural disadvantages for blacks and Hispanics in the city school system had to be addressed.

One Asian woman noted that new DOE admissions proposals would cut their enrollment at top schools by half — and argued they were being penalized for hard work and academic emphasis.

“That’s coded language that I keep hearing in education spaces and it doesn’t leave room for conversation about systemic barriers that black, brown and poor students are up against,” Sutton later told The Post. “There are hard-working people in every demographic.”

Many of the Asian protesters also stressed that Jackie Cody, a member of District 22’s parent advisory panel, referred to Asians as “yellow” in an email string with elected parent leaders from across the city.
