Why are you blaming the activist? She made good points and sounds like you share the same view.
Quote:
Nwofor said she understands why there might be rules about using the word at a school, and said if there is zero tolerance, then the principal should never have said the word.
"I would tell the authority figure the correct way to handle it is to say, 'We have a zero N-word policy here, and we are going to discuss with your guardians about how to move forward."

I'd also go light on the school kids who are right to be confused when even adults haven't figured this out.
This should be entirely on the principal.
I think there's some nuances around old books like To Kill a Mockingbird and how to handle the usage in it, but at this point, a principal dropping the n-word in front of students like this?
