EP. 78 | A student, a gun, a racist threat and a parent who complained, told to be quiet.

from Colors: A Dialogue on Race in America

Tharaha Thavakumar of Pittsford, NY spoke out after a white high school student posted a video, showing a gun that he said he carried to kill (the N-word plural). After raising concerns, she was ignored, told to keep quiet, even body-shamed. The surprising thing is, this treatment allegedly came from some of the town's leaders. Tweet us at @podcastcolors.
