Only one as I read it. I just hope they apply the same language standard to events where rap or hiphop is played.

“he said it was ‘just a stupid white kid from Ludlow’

” Stacia London’s ... husband and Kordell’s father, Michael, is black.”

So it’s not okay to make statements about skin color but it’s okay to make negative statements about Ludlow. Ludlow, BTW, is not known as an upper class town. It is an old mill town with a big population of Portuguese.

I wonder if it would have been okay for the kid to say - “he’s just a stupid black kid from Amherst.”
