[h=1]14 students at prestigious San Francisco Catholic high school suspended after attending racist 'wigger' party[/h]
Fourteen students at a mostly white Catholic high school in San Francisco have been suspended for attending a racist-themed “wigger” kegger, attended by up to 100 high school students in the Bay area.
The students were suspended from the prestigious St. Ignatius College Preparatory after outraged fellow students saw Instagram photos from the Jan. 23 party showing their classmates dressed in offensive costumes emulating negative black stereotypes.
“Wigger,” is a mashup of “white” and the n-word, and it refers to white people who appropriate black culture.
“It’s so contradictory to who we are and who we want to be,” the school’s principal, Patrick Ruff, told KRON News about his decision to suspend the students.
The high school kegger was attended by up to 100 people from roughly five area high schools at a large city park, Stern Grove, according to CBS News.
The suspended students flashed gang signs, held Bud Light tallboys and wore shirts that said "Thug Life" on them in the incriminating Instagram photos they posted of themselves at the party.
In recent years, racist themed parties have stirred up controversy all over the country, including a Kanye West-themed UCLA party in October 2015 attended by white students who dressed up like Yeezy and his reality star wife, Kim Kardashian.
While students from other high schools attended the Bay area “wigger” party, St. Ignatius is the only school so far that has disciplined students who attended.
“Over the years, we have done much work in the area of diversity through the school’s Office of Equity and Inclusion, which is an integral part of our school community. Clearly, however, we have more work ahead of us in forming adolescents to be their best selves,” read a statement on the St. Ignatius website.
Students hope the school can learn something from the suspensions and move on. “I do forgive them and at the end of the day it’s a learning lesson for all of us,” student Joseph Lofton told ABC News.
