I think it means the lack of knowlage or no respect for the knowlage. Ignorance can be connected to racism because people can ignore or not know the truefacts of everything, its disrespectfully and immaturely being uneducated or ignoring the facts

# data[].attributes.body
I think ignorance means that you only care about yourself and you think you are better than everybody else. I think that ignorance is connected to racism because if you think that you are better than everybody else that can translate to someone thinking that their race is better than another.

# data[].attributes.body
To me ignorance is when you don't understand something and yes I think that ignorance is connected because people don't understand and don't know the true facts or choose not to.

ignorance is inconsiderate and not thinking how your words and actions will effect others. it is connected to racism because when people make racist remarks they don't think about how it will effect that group of people

The word ignorance means to not listen to someone or something, or for someone to overlook someone or something.

I think that ignorance can definitely be connected to racism in a way.

# data[].attributes.headline
The word ignorance it means to me not well educated or lack of respect. Yes it can be connected to racism because some people aren't educated well on the topic and sometimes refuse to educate themselves.

because since people did see it they can tell other and it will spread and can cause damage and hurtfulness especially if the school doesnt acknowlages it and does nothing, it feels like they dont care or nothing will be done

I was concerned that it was directed at someone specifically and if they were okay and i was angry

I was surprised to hear about it because I thought that all the kids at Sturgis knew better than to do that. I am still surprised to know that they did that no feelings changed.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm not entirely sure we can, at least not completely, but we can at least try to make people understand the history and reasons it's wrong?

# data[].attributes.body
Ignorance means two things to me. The fact that it can just mean someone is unaware of a situation and they may say the wrong thing but they learn and grow from the experience meaning they were ignorant in the moment. It can also mean that someone is willfully ignorant. They don't wish to grow or change from the experience and they keep their ignorance and spread it as a belief. I believe ignorance is often connected to racism just as well as things like homophobia and xenophobia. These things are connected because as societal standards change these people don't bother to follow with the times and they just stay stuck in the past.

the word ignorance means that their is no respect or very selfish or not caring for some things. It is connected to racism because the person that wrote the stuff didn't care about what would happen or who he was affecting

Ignorance means to ignore and let a problem go without acknowledging or fixing it. This is connected with racism as many incidents of racism are simply ignored without being acknowledged or fixed.

# data[].attributes.body
Ignorance is ignoring real problems and struggles of other people. People can be described as ignorant when ignoring racism and how it harms others.

# data[].attributes.body
Because people would talk and ignoring the problem wont solve it

# data[].attributes.body
i was confused because i dont know if it was directed twards someone or if it was someone trying to be cool

# data[].attributes.body
The school would make a statement because only if a few people saw it doesn't mean it didn't happen and that they should hide it since only a couple people saw it.

# data[].attributes.body
I dont understand why people do it and think it is funny or they are doing the right thing, i dont understand wnat goes through their mind

# data[].attributes.body
because i think they want everyone to know not to do that

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the school made a statement anyway to show that what the person/people did was wrong. I think they did it to show that they do not put up with discrimination of any kind. They also wanted to do it to show that they appreciate all students backgrounds.

# data[].attributes.headline
idk, help the people that aren't so happy with it either like thew people that it was directed to

I didn't feel scared or uncomfortable, when I heard about this. I don't think it is a expression of the schools ideas. These things happened often in my other schools and I felt slighty angry, but it didn't really affect me, despite being part of the affected group.

# data[].attributes.body
become more considerate of others feelings or how someone might interpret something

I was surprised because Sturgis seemed like friendly school. I felt concerned for the people it was directed at and if they were okay. It feels a little more unsafe to be able to go to school and feel safe.

When i found out about the racial slur in the bathroom i was not uncomfortable about it.

# data[].attributes.body
I was shocked and angry that this situation happened. The fact that someone could think to do this to hurt others is absolutely disgusting. My feelings not changed since then. Not. One. Bit.

# data[].attributes.body
Be more considerate and talk about it more to educate.

# data[].attributes.body
everyone coming to the realization that we are all equal

have a people of color support or counsulor to share personal negative experiencence so people feel comforatble

# data[].attributes.body
Because it's important to acknowledge this hate crime in our school. If it goes ignored people will think this behavior is acceptable when its absolutely not.

# data[].attributes.body
I was surprised, but I honestly didn't really care. I just know that racism and hate is part of everybody's life and unfortunately is a harsh reality. Everyone has to deal with it and there's not much you can really do.

# data[].attributes.headline
The graffiti is damaging to the school and to the people it was directed at. They want to make people feel safe at school. people knowing and seeing the graffiti makes it an on edge environment.

Educate about the topic of inequality and discrimination

# data[].attributes.body
The word ignorance means, that you do understand, or you are naive about a certain subject or topic. I think because many people are uneducated about minority groups it can cause them to have ignorance when talking about minority groups. They have either chosen or have grew up in a house hold where they were not taught about the struggle that people have been through. To conclude ignorance is connected to racism through either not being taught or choosing not to learn about the certain struggle different minority groups have been through.

The actions I would like to see the student body take are them getting a big consequence of some sort so that if other people think to do it they would know what could happen to them if they do it.

I'm not sure but maybe spreading awareness about the history of these slurs and why they are harmful? I feel motivated to educate and help others.

look at the why. Where is this coming from why do people think its okay or funny, it can be from school peers or home or media

The school made a statement because this graffiti that was written on the wall could be offensive to people at the school and we want to educate people on why we should not do this and why it is hurtful.

# data[].attributes.body
You can't stop these acts, they will always happen either in a hurtful or a way of trying to act "cool". The school isn't hateful, but everywhere has hateful people.

# data[].attributes.body
The school should make a statement showing that they are trying to condemn and not stand for the actions taking place.

The students could learn more about respect and how the word is bad. In advisory people could reflect on respect for other people who are not the same.

I don't think we can ever stop racist acts from happening but there are ways we can prevent them from happening. We can just keep educating and keep informing and trying to make people understand how harmful this is.

To have a discussion about why we shouldn't do this to hopefully further educate people on why this is hurtful.

Educating people more on why this words are offensive and the history of how it was used against people.

By speaking out about situation like this and discussing on how we could all act and be more considerate of how to respect peoples problems that have effected them and even their family from past history.
