"Get The Black One. She Didn't Pick Cotton" Black Female Student On Racial Discrimination From A Group Of White Female Students.. School Downplayed It
"A Charlotte County family is speaking out, for help in filing a complaint with the US Department of Justice.
The family says they have seen a shift in their daughter's self-esteem since the alleged racial attacks started happening at school.
"I just kinda went to the corner, I put my hands up and I just sat there and took it," Clay said, referring to a time when her volleyball teammates were on video allegedly saying she didn't pick her cotton today and hit her with pillows.
The Clay family says when they reached out to Amanda Sanford, Principal of Babcock High School, Sanford said in an email, that the video was "Determined to not be racially discriminatory."
Fox 4 reached out to the school and received this response from Shannon Treece, Executive Director of Babcock Schools:" - Fox4 | Posted by Thrillz
