Teacher Calls Jamaican Students N*ggers After They Complain About Being Called African-American

A substitute teacher will not be allowed to teach at an Illinois school anymore after she allegedly called two Jamaican students n**gers because they complained about being called African-American.

Eighth graders at Jay Stream Middle School say they were brought to tears during a Civil War project last Wednesday after a teacher first called them African-American, then n**gers.

“All four of us that were sitting there got offended because none of us are from Africa. I’m Jamaican. So we said, ‘Can you please not call us that?” student Mea Thompson told NBC Chicago. “She continued to call us that and said, ‘It’s the politically correct term.’ Then she said, ‘Well, back then you guys would be considered the N-word.”
