I am surprised and upset that some readers would suggest that it should be let go or ignored, or even that it is not a racial thing. If the tables were turned and white children were ridiculing an African American child then there would be some mighty upset people. But since the shoe is on the other foot, it doesn't matter? I don't think so. Her feelings matter just as much as anyone else's. If I were the coach, I would not tolerate bigotry and racism from ANYONE. I certainly would not put up with it if it were my child.
