RACIST "PROMPOSAL": Florida Student Taking Heat for Viral Video

TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

  • It remains to be seen if Crowley will actually be punished.
  • The play-by-play announcer for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Brian Davis, was recently suspended for saying that Russell Westbrook was "out of his cotton-pickin' mind." He meant it as a compliment, as Westbrook was about to set an NBA record for averaging a triple-double in multiple seasons.
  • It's 2018. Isn't it time we've moved past racism?
  • Sadly, it seems we're moving in the other direction.



A student in Sarasota, Florida is taking heat for video of his racist prom proposal, which recently went viral.

In the video clip, 18-year-old high school senior Noah Crowley posted his "promposal" on Snapchat on Sunday. In it, he holds up a sign that reads: "If I was black I'd be picking cotton, but I'm white so I'm picking U 4 prom."

The Sarasota County School District responded to Crowley's post by calling it "racist in nature." Its statement added, "Neither the school district nor Riverview High School condones or supports the message conveyed in the post. This incident remains an on-going investigation and any disciplinary action and recommendation will be made accordingly." (Tampa Bay Times)
