Coach got fired for this

https://www.nola.com/news/education/article_9d60369e-ea11-11e9-95aa-4f0fda3b0958.html

Two days after videos surfaced showing St. Augustine High School football players reciting a pre-game locker room chant that repeatedly used the N-word, the all-boys Catholic school said Tuesday it had ousted head coach Nathaniel Jones as well as two assistants.

School officials did not elaborate on whether Jones or the assistants, whose names were not released, had been fired or resigned in the wake of videos which St. Augustine President Kenneth St. Charles called indefensible.


Kenneth Dorsey Jr., who served as an assistant to Jones, has been named interim head coach.

Dorsey assumes control of the Purple Knights at a delicate time. The two videos, circulated on social media, showed members of the team firing themselves up before game play by repeatedly chanting, along with a coach, “All I got is two pads. Two hands. Knock a (N-word’s) sh— loose.”

The school, which is historically African-American, decried the use of the long-regarded racial slur as "blatantly offensive language," and its handling of the videos' fallout has garnered the support of many in the school community and in broader circles.

But many others, including some connected to St. Augustine, say the term's use is common — in music, films and among black youth — and was not being used in a racist context in the chant.


The videos show players in jersey and helmet combinations that suggest they were recorded before the team’s two most recent games, against John Curtis Christian School on Sept. 28 and against Brother Martin High School on Friday. Both were at Tulane University’s Yulman Stadium.

One of the videos shows a coach — who is not Jones — leading players in the chant. It is unclear if that same coach is leading the chant in the other video.
 
Grown man, teaching young Black boys to hate each other. Terrible leadership. We are fucking doomed. Please let the N..a word DIE ALREADY.
fighting a losing battle with that one...the word nigga will NEVER die...black people will never stop saying it
 
You talk to your kids like that? You call your son's n..s?
This ain't the prison league. These are kids! No way that kind of shit should ever be acceptable.
Being a father and a football coach are 2 different things and only an idiot would try to make such a comparison
He’s preparing those kids for an upcoming physical contest. It’s time to get hype and on one accord.
You niggas weren’t serious athletes
 
This shit has levels...

You lame nigga:smh:

That's the coach. He is the adult. You don't have to try to relate to those kids on their level. Be the responsible role model and be creative and come up with something other than some prison yard chant. You actually insult the kids with that nonsense thinking that's the only way you can relate to them.

You are right, Coach is prepping them for a hardcore physical contest, not to go out and try to maim other kids.

Fuck outta here with that simple minded shit.
 
Catholic school... :smh::smh::smh:

He knew better.

Not being argumentative but that school is an all-boy, all-Black Catholic school, there are no whites, asians or hispanics going that school and it's located in Black neighborhood.

From what I know from the alumni of that school, the teachers are mostly Black men and the boys at that school generally refer to their teachers as "coach" instead of "mister"

The language used on a daily basis in the class rooms is rougher than that chant.

Keep in mind, this is all-black, all-boy school in one of America's roughest cities, they aren't exactly going to pussy foot around when it comes to teaching and handling Black males.

That school had corporal punishment until about 2010..

That school is not your normal "Catholic" school

once again, not being argumentative but just trying give you insight.
