Via Fox News, Prince Georges, Maryland
“A spokesperson for Prince George’s County Public Schools said a group of African-American students assaulted a group of Hispanic students.”
“Spokesperson Raven Hill told FOX 5 that the principal is working with the school district’s diversity officer to bring students together and “developing a plan of action that addresses students and parents’ safety concerns and encourages students to celebrate cultural differences in the wake of this incident.”
FOX 5 spoke to two students who said they heard at the assembly that the aggressors in the fight have been expelled. They also said they don’t think there is a racial divide at their school* and they believe there were other issues that prompted the fight.
SOMETIMES AN ALTERNATIVE HEADLINE IS ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE SAID:
*An alternate headline might read: “African-American students assault group of Hispanic students; reporter finds two students who don’t think there’s a ‘racial divide’ at their school; diversity officer working on plan of action”
