Horrible ...

N words at a football game this season directed from home spectators of a mostly white suburban Catholic school at visiting black cheerleaders from an urban school. Offenders couldn't be identified after an investigation.

Basketball game two seasons ago (not mine). Fans were more subtle. Spectators of a mostly white suburban (rich town) school (who were getting beaten at home) yelled "SAT" at visitors from a mostly black urban school. Stupid fans, visitors were from a highly respected magnet school with a history of getting almost all graduates into college.

Unfortunately, this is only the tip of the iceberg. If this is what we're seeing in scholastic sports, then it must be going on elsewhere. The kids have to learn racism from somebody (parents, social media, etc.), they're not born racists.
