Family student Minisink Valley High School, which was photographed for the racist post Snapchat, encourages the school to act.
Thursday, January 3, Senga N Censoni in tears, told NBC that a classmate published her picture in Snapchat, calling it «wild ni**er». In addition, he wrote in the same post: «We need to Lynch her.»
«I thought, maybe he doesn’t know history, and I decided that using an educational approach will tell a classmate about the history behind this offensive inscription,» said the girl.
According to N sengi, after the story the student apologized, but for girls it’s not enough. The mother of schoolgirl Nicole Centonze believes that a classmate had threatened her daughter and called on others to violent actions, so she’s not going to drop it and requires school-specific actions.
According to a post in Instagram N sengi brother, who is hiding under the nickname heathcaleb, a classmate who’s name is Peter Krish. Because students are seated alphabetically, his sister and Peter put together, he said.
«If N Senga didn’t hear Peter Krish asked another classmate if she liked it, the photo he sent might N Senga would not know that this picture distributed,» wrote her brother, who stressed that the classmate sister took the photo without her consent.
The man also claims that if Peter didn’t know what to do wrong, he would not hide from the N sengi.
«No matter how painful, we must demand solutions because we keep coming back to the starting point,» said the civil rights lawyer Michael Sussman, hired by the family.
Last month, the head of the school district of Minisink Valley, Brian Monaghan, reacted to the news, stating that «the district is no tolerance for hate speech or any type of behavior that threatens the physical or emotional sense of security and safety of students and staff».
But the girl’s mother, who said her children are not first time victims of a racist, wants to bring change. (Nicole Centonze did not specify what her family requires of school districts. The claim is not yet filed).
«I want to be the last person in Minisink, in orange County, in the state of new York, who had to go through this,» said N Senga.
