Meet Jaelyn Crooks: Everything you need to know about the Prior Lake High School student

Racism never left most United States schools, which has led to undermining public schools' confidence, making most parents shift to homeschooling. Black and brown school students continue to face erasure, indignity, and daily trauma at the hands of racist educators and, worse, from their fellow white students. Such is the case of Nya Sigin, an African-American who had to swallow bitterly while listening to offensive, hurtful, and threatening words about her from Jaelyn Crooks and Jaeden Kewely.
