Vandebilt Catholic High officials said they are investigating a reported racist bullying incident that occurred in the Houma school's cafeteria.
A video of the incident surfaced Wednesday on social media showing a white male student throwing cotton at a Black male student who is seated in the cafeteria. The white student then whips the Black student with what appears to be a small belt.
Vandebilt officials said they are aware of the video and are working to determine its origin.
School officials are working in cooperation with diocesan officials, students and parents to investigate this matter and are committed to ensuring that all individuals involved are held accountable in accordance with school policies, the school said.

Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate,
You've got to be carefully taught!

The white kid probably would've gotten punched if he tried that. The Black community would've raised hell and the administrators would've reacted by suspending the white student/s, not by sending the Black student home.
The new Black mayor would've probably gotten involved too.
