High Schoolers Sang A Song About The KKK To The Tune Of Jingle Bells As Their Classmates LaughedTheir teacher has been placed on leave after the superintendent called it an incident of extreme racial insensitivity.
Julia Reinstein BuzzFeed News Reporter Posted on December 4, 2018, at 1:41 p.m. ET
Students at Dover High School in New Hampshire were filmed singing a song about the Ku Klux Klan to the tune of Jingle Bells, which included the lyrics KKK, KKK, lets kill all the blacks.
In video of the incident, which was obtained by News Center Maine after circulating throughout the community over the weekend, two students can be heard singing the song while much of the class laughs.
Superintendent William Harbron told BuzzFeed News the teacher, John Carver, has been placed on paid leave due to the incident. (Carver could not be immediately reached for comment.)
