School Parents, Leaders Work To Cut Racial Tensions

BALTIMORE —Digital Harbor High School leaders, parents and city police gathered Tuesday night at the south Baltimore school in hopes of easing racial tensions between black and Latino students after recent violent altercations.

More than a dozen families gathered at the school for the meeting that came during the last week of classes for the year. Police and staff said they want to have an open dialogue about the issues before summer break and the next school year.

"You could feel something was going on in school. Everything was starting to change. You could feel something bad was going on," said Jose Dominguez, who graduated this past weekend.

He described the tension at Digital Harbor as like a pressure cooker that's been building all school year.

"Friends and other classmates, they were feeling afraid of what was going on because it wasn't only affecting Latino and African-American students. It was all the school," Dominguez said.

Racial tensions are only going to increase until we get rid of the great divider and his circus of race baiting criminals.

The racists are the principals, teachers, Blacks, libtards, Democrats and the Muslim from Kenya.

Eliminate and eradicate the problem.

Who needs to look in the mirror?

There are 2 comments above yours and I see nothing racist about either of them. Facts speak for themselves.
