Los Angeles school officials are cracking down on hate speech after black teachers and students described being called racial slurs and becoming targets on campus. In shocking testimony, educators revealed they have been called the N-word and compared to monkeys — with one educator claiming he was forced to write his own hate speech policy because administrators failed to act. In response, the Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education unanimously approved a resolution Tuesday aimed at strengthening districtwide policies and school-based strategies to address hate speech, harassment and discrimination.
