California HS Kicks Players off Football Team After Slave Auction Prank on Teammates
River Valley High School in Yuba City, California, canceled the rest of its football schedule after multiple players participated in a "slave auction" prank involving Black teammates.
According to TMZ Sports, the players involved in the prank have been kicked off the team as well.
"Re-enacting a slave sale as a prank tells us that we have a great deal of work to do with our students so they can distinguish between intent and impact," Yuba City Unified School District superintendent Doreen Osumi said in a statement to CNN's Zoe Sottile.
