Three California high school students have been suspended after a video of them abusing a black doll named "Shaniqua" goes viral.
In the video, several students from Salinas High School are seen abusing the black doll and placing the toy in sexual positions.
Parents say this is not the first time an incident of this caliber has occurred in the school or the district.
In a statement, the Salinas Union High School District condemned the terrible act and said in part.
"The SUHSD does not condone this type of behavior, and although the District has taken steps to support our African American students and staff, this recent incident demonstrates how much more support is needed. We urge families to also take time to talk with their students about the damaging effects of racist behavior. Counseling is available at all of our school sites for any students who may need support.
Racism and racial injustice are in direct opposition to the District's values. Our District will continue our efforts to show that racism and racial injustice have no place in our schools. We are committed to maintaining a safe, positive school environment where all students, staff, parents/guardians, and community members are treated with respect and dignity."
Members of the Salinas High School community and the general public continue to swarm social media and online platforms to express their frustration.
