More than two years after her parents filed a federal racial discrimination lawsuit against her school district, a 17-year-old Michigan girl is now speaking out. This action was taken in response to months of taunting and harassment she experienced.
On January 3, The Detroit News interviewed Clara Malick and her parents, Rob and April Malick. During the interview, Clara recounted her ordeal while attending Croswell-Lexington High School in Croswell, Michigan, in 2021.
Clara, who is adopted, revealed that she faced persistent racial taunts from her white classmates, including being repeatedly called the N-word. According to her lawsuit, Clara was one of only three Black students in a district with more than 2,000 students.
The teenager said white students would often “call me the N-word or say the N-word in a sentence. And they’ll look at me for a reaction.” Clara added that she didn’t know how to react at first.
“I didn’t know how to react because I didn’t really know what the word really meant,” she continued, adding that while she’d heard the word before, she’d never been called it.
The teenager shared that, over time, she found herself laughing along with the taunts. She explained, “What else are you supposed to do? Like, the jokes aren’t funny, but you’re just like, ‘everybody else is laughing,’ so you gotta laugh, too.”
As outlined in the lawsuit, Malick endured near-daily taunting from white students, including racial slurs and threats of hair-pulling. She was subjected to offensive phrases such as, “Go back to the plantation and pick cotton” and “Your hair looks like s—t.”
The then-freshman was also told, “I’m going to snatch your weave and burn it,” and “I bet your hair is dead.” The lawsuit also detailed an incident where Clara told the students to stop and was ignored.

This kid is a lying sack of shit.
Any corroborating evidence?
People with a guilty conscience are common in these instances.
I’d be surprised if a white kid told her her hair was dead.
Never happened.
Absolutely.
It never happened.

I stopped reading when the story capitalized “black” but not “white”.
When blacks stop saying the N word in every song they sing, then we will stop using it. Of course, it won’t ever happen!

*******************
I’ve always laughed at that too. But it’s actually true. A lie is “ a statement made by someone who does not believe it, with the intention to mislead or deceive.”
O.K., this gal could theoretically be telling the truth. But what is the record of the truthfulness of these “racist claims”—0.00017%?
Overwhelmingly likely to be a hoax based on past history of these sorts of claims.
Isn’t all hair dead?
