Kenston Local Schools investigating video showing students using N-word, other threatening language

Описание: Community members of Kenston Local Schools are furious over social media videos appearing showing students using threatening language and racial slurs. Many parents attended a school board meeting on Tuesday to air their grievances.

"We absolutely have no faith in your ability to protect our Black sons and daughters that attend Kenston Locals Schools," one parent told the Board.

Because the footage has minors in it and we can't verify its origin, 3News has chosen to blur it and remove the audio in our story above. On Wednesday, parent Samera Hollimon described the students' repetitive use of the n-word in the videos.

"He basically said, "I hate Ns,' 'I want all Ns to die,' 'I want to wipe them off the face of the planet,'" she said of one of the videos. "He said, 'You all can agree with me.'"

Hollimon claimed the other video showed a student repeatedly saying, "Eff Ns."

"It's crazy," she said. "When I saw the video, I was really outdone. I was hurt. With all the mass shootings that's going on, what if this kid comes and actually brings a gun and shoots all of the Black students?"
