Minnesota Woman Raises Over $800,000 After Facing Charges for Racist Slur
In Minneapolis, a woman faces misdemeanor disorderly conduct charges for allegedly using a racial slur against a Black child at a playground, an incident captured on video. The complaint details the woman’s use of the slur and her subsequent reactions, including admitting to it and using the slur again, and raising over $800,000 on a fundraising platform. The child’s father reported his son is autistic, which explained the incident. The NAACP Rochester chapter had also started fundraising for the family, expressing the need for justice and accountability.
