Has anyone else noticed an increase in overt racism in their school? I’m not referring to offhand jokes; I’m talking about a significant rise in real, harmful racism. It’s puzzling to see this happening—I’m curious if it’s influenced by outside factors or other people.

If you have the opportunity, it might be helpful to bring this up in a school forum or event to raise awareness and foster positive change.
