HS student’s off-campus ‘blackface’ photo gets him suspended, results in student protest

Turmoil recently erupted at a Delaware high school as a Halloween photo of two white students, one of whom was dressed in “blackface,” surfaced during spring break and then went viral.

Delaware Online reports that although the photo was taken at an “off-campus event,” the St. Georges High School student in blackface received a two-day suspension according to local NAACP president Lisa Bynum.

Bynum and the NAACP were “extremely disappointed” with that punishment.

“[Blackface] is a stark reminder of the systemic racism and prejudice that continue to plague our society, even within educational institutions that should serve as bastions of inclusivity and respect for all,” Bynum said.
