A 16-year-old Boston high school student named Destinee Wornum is outting the 'N Word' on trial. Destinee and her mother Rosaling are trying to get the prestigious Boston Latin School to discipline one of their teachers. The mother and daughter met with Boston Latin School headmaster Lynn Mooney Teta on Wednesday to discuss the incident.
What happened? Well according to Destined, last year one of her teachers greeted her with the phrase, “What’s up, my n*gg*?” before a class discussion on Huckleberry Finn. The teacher was trying to make some sort of a point, since the word "N*gger" is used frequently in the book.
“I didn’t know what to say,” Destinee recalled, according to the Boston Globe. “She asked me how I felt, and I said ‘Honestly, I would probably be suspended because I wanted to get up and hit you,’” Destinee added, according to WCVB-TV.
Destinee said that she didn’t tell her mother about what happened until months later because she feared the consequences of speaking out about her concerns.
“I honestly didn’t know how to handle it because it was like, ‘How do I approach my adult teacher on a situation like this? What would that mean for my grade? What would it mean for my future at BLS?” Destinee told the Boston Globe. “I was in fear of what could happen because it’s like I’m a girl from Dorchester and I ought to be grateful because I go to BLS. That’s the way that they make it seem.”
So far no action has been taken by the school.
