Students, parents, community leaders and activists held a protest to support Black students in the Shawnee Mission School District after a video of a white male student verbally and physically assaulting a Black female student went viral on social media earlier this week.
More than 80 students and parents from across the Kansas City metro gathered in the cold and rain outside the Shawnee Mission School District’s Center for Academic Achievement in Prairie Village on Thursday evening.
They were angry about what they described as the district's lackluster response to a white male student using racial slurs and repeatedly punching a Black female student in the face, which garnered attention after the Kansas City Defender posted a video of the incident on social media.
The incident sent Brey’anna Brown to the hospital with a broken nose and facial contusions, her family said at the protest.
The crowd chanted “Have our backs,” “Justice for Brey,” and “If not now, then when?” in response to what they called a hate crime.
Brown, who was at the protest, said the school needs to enforce harsher consequences for racist behavior.

Lots of bad behavior on both sides
--- In what way? The perpetrator has already been charged with the same crime earlier this year. It's his second charge - for the same offense. I fail to see how in this scenario "bad behavior" is on both sides.
"The video showed Brown walking away from a verbal altercation over what appeared to be another incident involving racist remarks made by a different student. The white male student used the N-word several times while coming toward her. He pushed her, then both could be seen grabbing and throwing punches at one another.
KCUR is not using the name of the suspect since he is a juvenile. According to Johnson County Court records, he was charged with one count of felony aggravated battery for the Nov. 15 incident. This is the second time he has been charged for the same crime this year."

The Klan Youth Corps recruits white youth to teach them white "superiority," black "inferiority," and "beware the 'enemy' -- the Jews."
Abstract
The published goals of the Youth Corps are to organize white youth in schools, use a "get-tough" policy with "arrogant nonwhites," force school administrators to drop their "appeasement policy toward minorities by threatening public exposure followed by possible boycotts," demand "equal rights for white students," and segregate classes followed by segregation of schools. At their meetings, Klan youth are told by Klan adults that they are losing all their rights to minorities. Youth are encouraged to air grievances against blacks and teachers sympathetic to minorities. Some groups are instructed in the use of firearms, from pistols to sawed-off shotguns, in preparation for the day when "weapons may be the solution to the race problem." Members of the Klan Youth Corps bond to one another through social activities and even summer camps. Klan leader Tom Metzger has likened the Youth Corps to "the Boy Scouts or the Girl Scouts, only racist."

Kids Encyclopedia Facts
The Ku Klux Klan is a hate group. It was started in the southern United States on March 3, 1865. Most of its hate has been towards African Americans, but it has also attacked Catholics, Jews and immigrants. It has sought to keep "white power", often through very violent acts such as killing people. The first Ku Klux Klan broke up and does not exist anymore. However, other groups with the same name and the same ideas have been created.
The Ku Klux Klan (acronym KKK) is an organization which was started in Pulaski, Tennessee in 1865. This was after the American Civil War.
It started as a social club for former Confederate soldiers. The Klan quickly became a terrorist organization. Its aim was to resist the Reconstruction of the United States.

In 1982, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI's) terrorism program was elevated to national priority status.
Abstract
The FBI defines terrorism, domestic or international, as the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a Government or civilian population in furtherance of political or social objectives.
The FBI is the lead agency for operational response to domestic terrorism and also has responsibility for some terrorist actions against Americans overseas.
The FBI has a dual mission to prevent and react to terrorist violence. It does this by collecting and disseminating information, planning, and investigation.
The FBI is also involved in crisis and special events management, research (trend analysis, threat assessment), training, hostage negotiation, and interagency coordination and cooperation.

3.) Terrorism
Protecting the United States from terrorist attacks is the FBI’s number one priority. The Bureau works closely with its partners to neutralize terrorist cells and operatives here in the United States, to help dismantle extremist networks worldwide, and to cut off financing and other forms of support provided to foreign terrorist organizations.
Terrorism Definitions
International terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups who are inspired by, or associated with, designated foreign terrorist organizations or nations (state-sponsored).
Domestic terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature.

The Current Threat
The FBI is committed to remaining agile in its approach to the terrorism threat, which has continued to evolve since the September 11, 2001 terror attacks.
Years after these attacks, the threat landscape has expanded considerably, and international terrorism remains a serious threat. The threat of domestic terrorism also remains persistent overall, with actors crossing the line from exercising First Amendment-protected rights to committing crimes in furtherance of violent agendas.
Many factors have contributed to the evolution of the terrorism threat on both the international and domestic fronts, such as:
* Lone offenders: Terrorist threats have evolved from large-group conspiracies toward lone-offender attacks. These individuals often radicalize online and mobilize to violence quickly. Without a clear group affiliation or guidance, lone offenders are challenging to identify, investigate, and disrupt. The FBI relies on partnerships and tips from the public to identify and thwart these attacks.
* The Internet and social media: International and domestic violent extremists have developed an extensive presence on the Internet through messaging platforms and online images, videos, and publications. These facilitate the groups’ ability to radicalize and recruit individuals who are receptive to extremist messaging. Social media has also allowed both international and domestic terrorists to gain unprecedented, virtual access to people living in the United States in an effort to enable homeland attacks. The Islamic State of Iraq and ash-Sham (ISIS), in particular, encourages sympathizers to carry out simple attacks wherever they are located—or to travel to ISIS-held territory in Iraq and Syria and join its ranks as foreign fighters. This message has resonated with supporters in the United States and abroad.
