Massachusetts high school cancels football games after racial slur

It's a shame that it happens at any school. Why are you surprised about Massachusetts?

I thought northeastern and western states are less racist than in southern states, so that's not true anymore.
 
no. Funny, Recently some black guy was on the phone and say something about white people. i forget what did he used the slang for white. My co worker was stunned.

My daughter is biracial and when I moved back to Massachusetts from California my daughter had a horrible time in school with kids calling her racist names. It was mostly from boys that families lived in my city for generations , the local people did not like people moving into their city. I had a landlord and she was White , she and husband who was also White brought a house and fixed it up . The local people started egging her house , they did not like people moving into the city and fixing up houses because that meant their rents would go up. My dad was not allowed to join a golf club because he was Jewish . I heard about 15 years ago the golf club still does not allowed Jewish people to go there.

I met a guy at the park once and got talking about our dogs and what vets we go to. The guy started telling me about how great his vet was and he give discounts . Then the guy lean toward and said in a low voice " there one wrong about the vet, he is Jewish," I was BS! I told the guy that I was Jewish and told him to get away from me!
 
My son is biracial..I really hope he doesn't experience hate crime committed against him. This is a big big shame for the child.

Yes it horrible for a child to be called racist names. I hope so too that this does not happen to your son. It was very painful for me too.
