The horrible scene took place in the dressing room, with other racial remarks occurring on the ice, in the dressing room, and at school, according to reports. The re-enactment scene is particularly disturbing, publically humiliating the child to create a scene that was so publically, and rightly, condemned.

These disgusting acts of racism by teenagers show that there is still an insurmountable amount of work that needs to be done to eradicate racism in sports.
