Jan 27, 20165:53Now PlayingAn Arizona school has responded to a number of female students who wore shirts that spelled out a racial slur. They’re apparently in some trouble, though the school has not disclosed the specific punishment. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of the The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"The six girls were rumored to be suspended for five days, a claim that Tempe Union superintendent Kenneth Baca refuted. "There have been numerous reports about punishment and while we cannot give specifics about the discipline, we can assure you those reports are inaccurate," Baca wrote in a statement posted on the district's website. "We are appalled and disappointed at this behavior and it will not be tolerated. It is unacceptable for any racial slur to be used regardless of intent."
A Change.org petition calling for more serious discipline for the teenagers and for the resignation of Desert Vista High School principal Christine Barela has gathered more than 29,000 signatures as of Sunday morning.”*
