A Georgia Boy Scout experienced racial bullying while on a camping trip. The boy, who is the son of an Ethiopian immigrant was called the N-word, and had rocks thrown at him by Boy Scout members of another troop.
The 14-year-old boy, who is a member of Scouts Troop 10 from Johns Creek, Georgia was on a week long camping trip in Alabama. Members of Boy Scouts Troop 76 from Vestavia Hills, Ala., were camping next to them and began using racial slurs to bully the young boy.
The mother, who wished not to be identified, confirmed to AL.com that the boys threw rocks at her son.
“It upsets me that this is that boy’s summer camp memory,” said Leanne Potts, a mother whose son belongs to Troop 10.
