Talking more about racism and supporting the kids who are getting racism.

They probably made a statement about it so everyone knows its not okay and that Sturgis West does not tolerate that kind of behavior

Ignorance is when you think your way of thinking is correct and not listening to facts or any other opinion. Racial ignorance is when you ignore the problem because you think it doesn’t either apply to you, doesn’t exist, or you just don’t care. Racial ignorance is the same as being racist.

They made a statement even though only a few people saw it because it still very bad and not acceptable.

ignorance mean that you don't under stand or lack information but I don't think it is connected to racism

I just wondered how it was possible that someone could do this in a right state of mind, and I thought to myself. Why?

I was a little surprised because I didn't think kids from Sturgis would do something like that. But I also know that this is something that happens a lot in our world and community.

If they don´t acknowledge it when it starts then it may become a bigger problem and they need the people at west to understand that this is not ok

To mean the word "ignorance" is when someone doesn't have enough knowledge about something. I do think that ignorance is connected to racism, many people that are not against racism are ignorant. They might now realize how hurtful they could be being to a certain group of people.

I think it is important to announce these kinds of things to show it's not okay and how the school won't tolerate this kind of thing. It is probably easy for schools to cover stuff like this up, but then what would we as a school be able to learn and grow from this if nobody said anything about it?

Have discussions like this one, acknowledge other people's feeling, and start to understand how people would feel in result of these actions

Just because only a few people saw the graffiti doesn’t mean it is ok. If someone believes they will have no consequences due to there clearly racist and or homophobic actions they will continue. They will continue making more people feel ashamed and continue making people uncomfortable just because they think they can get away with it.

to show that they care, and know that it is wrong

I didn't think someone actually did it at first.

because its not right to feel hated on someThing that you can't control its very unwelcoming and you want school to be a safe place

Sturgis can demonstrate this maybe by having some sort of activity where you give someone a compliment or maybe a team bonding exercise where everyone feels included

In my opinion, we are given trust until we break it. When trust is broken it is hard to earn back. Sturgis is a community that prides itself on acceptance and teamwork. If somebody tries to ruin the Sturgis way, they should not be apart of the community.

I am not that surprised because some people find stupid things like that funny

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think it will stop because people will be racist whether because they think its funny or because they truly discriminate against people because of their race. But I also think it can be minimized by doing what west did and bring attention to it
