Racial Slur Incidents Lead to Consequences for Teachers and Students in Missouri and Michigan
TL;DR Summary
A Missouri high school student, Mary Walton, has been suspended for three days after recording her teacher using a racial slur during class. The teacher has been put on paid administrative leave. Walton's attorney plans to issue a "demand letter" to lift the suspension and get an apology. Walton said the teacher used the N-word six times, two of which were recorded on her video. The family wants an apology, and the attorney said allowing the punishment to stand would inflict a "chilling effect" on students speaking out about wrongdoing in the future.
