This makes me so angry. They are trying to force kids to accept being wrong and racist.
Activist Nathan Phillips now says he will meet with Covington Catholic students
Native American activist Nathan Phillips has changed his mind and now says he will meet with students at Covington Catholic High School.
He’s offering to travel as a delegate representing the international coalition behind the Indigenous Peoples March to Covington Catholic High School in and have a dialogue about cultural appropriation, racism and the importance of listening to and respecting diverse cultures, he said in a Tuesday news release.
He says he’d like to use what occurred as a teachable moment.

“I have read the statement from Nick Sandmann, the student who stared at me for a long time. He did not apologize, and I believe there are intentional falsehoods in his testimony,” Phillips continued. “But I have faith that human beings can use a moment like this to find a way to gain understanding from one another.”

He can say what he wants - under oath, when he is sued. Until then, pound sand.
many radios talk show hosts are saying that he was banging a drum or beating a drum near the student. That sounds like he had a small drum by his side that he was beating with his hand. He was actually swinging a drumstick that looks about a foot long at a very flat drum. I would not want anyone smacking a drum with a STICK close to my head.
