Here are a list of things that Texas Centennial High School Assistant Football Coach Todd Campbell said to black and Latino students.
“You need to be quiet,” Campbell allegedly told a group of students, according to the documents. “You see that rope over there, you see that tree back there? I’m going to hang you in that tree. I’m going to hang you by your toes.”
Students said coach Todd Campbell also stereotyped black students by claiming that they must run fast because they were eating fried chicken or drinking Kool-Aid. He would also say “esé,” a Spanish slang for “homeboy,” around Latino students and use the term “cracker.”
Campbell resigned from his position, but only after over 50 students complained about his language and behavior.
