McClatchy High School, noting that the message was a throwback to segregation. The perpetrator wrote \u201ccolored\u201d over one side of a dual-water fountain and \u201cwhite\u201d over the other. After a picture of the graffiti spread over social media, activists quickly expressed outrage, even though most instances of alleged hate messages in schools have turned out to be hoaxes perpetrated by students of color.<\/p>\n<p>Before any suspect had been identified \u2013 and before surveillance footage was even viewed \u2013 Sacramento City Unified School District Superintendent Jorge Aguilar condemned the act.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am both angry and heartsick that racist graffiti was discovered on the C. K. McClatchy campus today. We take this incident very seriously. Racism and racist language will not be tolerated in our schools,\u201d he said, according to the Bee.<\/p>\n<p>The news of the incident prompted a black father to claim \u201cThere\u2019s something about our culture in the Sacramento City school district that has to be addressed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe inequities, the performance of Black kids, the racism, it has to stop,\u201d the father added.<\/p>\n<p>Activists naturally piled on. Berry Accius, founder of nonprofit Voice of Youth, demanded the school district take racist incidents more seriously.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is simply an enactment of the 1950s in 2022,\u201d Accius said. \u201cMore hateful images and racist rhetoric . Until these schools adopt a more zero tolerance Policy on racist behavior, there will be others bold enough to attempt more racist acts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Video surveillance revealed that the perpetrator of the incident is a black female student, CBS Sacramento <a href=\"https:\/\/sacramento.cbslocal.com\/2022\/02\/17\/person-identified-mcclatchy-hs-racist-graffiti-protest\/\">reported<\/a>. That student also confessed to writing the message. The news prompted some in the district to backtrack on demands for justice. The district\u2019s race and equity monitor, Mark T. Harris, for example, told the outlet that this wasn\u2019t a hate crime specifically because the color of the perpetrator\u2019s skin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t believe those words that were on those water fountains were racist,\u201d Harris said. \u201cI do not believe they were hate crime or hate speech. Part of it quite honestly is because the admitted perpetrator is a young African American woman.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Accius, the activist, stayed on message, however, saying that the act was still a hate crime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI disagree with it not being a hate crime because at the end of the day we understand when you have colored on one water faucet and white on another kind of faucet what that means \u2013 whether it\u2019s 1950 or 2022,\u201d Accius said, according to CBS Sacramento.<\/p>\n<p>He and other activists raised doubts about the student\u2019s confession, even though surveillance footage caught her in the act.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than teaching students not to perpetrate hoaxes, the school district announced it would focus <em>more<\/em> on social justice issues, including \u201canti-racism training\u201d for staff and a \u201csocial emotional learning\u201d approach.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire\u2019s first original film, Shut In, has made its cinematic debut, being met with rave reviews.
