Football players of Hough High School and other African American Students, within the Charlotte Mecklenburg School System, have united in solidarity and support to all CMS African American students. Students have been subjected to racism, racial slurs, and injustices from peers/ classmates who have zero consequences or accountability for their actions. These instances have been via social media and on school grounds. Leadership responses to complaints of these instances have been, 1. It was not a direct threat or 2. It was via social media and outside of the school year or school hours. We believe that these responses are insensitive to the feeling of safety and inclusion to all African American students and must be addressed by the schools and CMS. Please sign in support as we must see a change and we must see it now. #BlackLivesMatter #NoChangeNoPlay
