A white Oklahoma teacher has been placed on administrative leave after a video recorded during a class showed her calling a Black student the n-word.
KWTV reports that the incident in question was recorded at Holdenville high school, and shows the teacher say the slur during a tense argument with one of her students. Near the start of the clip, the student can be seen pacing while talking to someone on a cellphone about how he plans to “walk home.” The teacher wasn’t happy about it and insisted that she would be “keeping” him in the classroom.
