A derogatory question about China on a sixth-grade social studies quiz has led to the suspension of three teachers and an investigation in a Dallas-area school district.
Joy Lim, a Korean-American college student studying at home remotely, said she was shocked when she got a glimpse of a middle school social studies quiz her 12-year-old sister was taking.
She snapped a screen shot of the question and posted it on Twitter, stating: This is ridiculous. Harmful rhetoric in our education system is exactly why anti-Asian hate crimes and racism persist today.

A 15-year-old girl was killed Thursday on the Southwest Side by a hit-and-run driver, police said.
She was walking across Medina Base Road, near Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, when the collision occurred. The Bexar County Medical Examiner s Office identified the victim as Marisa Duran.
There was no sidewalk on the south side of the road where Duran was walking, police said. A 2011 Honda Pilot traveling westbound struck her and fled the scene south on Moon Valley Drive.
A witness pulled over and tended to Duran, but she did not survive her injuries. She was pronounced dead at 10:25 p.m. The Medical Examiner s Office was notified but could not make it to the scene due to the icy road conditions. Next of kin identified Duran.
