Students from Roosevelt High School were acting out Larry Shue’s 'The Foreigner'.
A school district in South Dakota has apologized after high school students performed in a play while dressed in Ku Klux Klan robes.
In one scene, it is revealed that a racist property inspector plans to convert the lodge into a meeting place for the KKK. “Roosevelt High School administrators have been provided with multiple racial and cultural sensitivity trainings and should have recognized the insensitivity represented by the play.
"The district has guidelines in place for vetting plays and other such works. The district failed to follow those guidelines," spokesperson DeeAnn Konrad told The Argus Leader."We sincerely regret this and will continue to take action in our quest to be a culturally responsive school community." Three students from the ASU Preparatory Academy in Phoenix wore the outfits for a performance at a school assembly.
