Covington Catholic HS Students Appear To Harass, Mock Native Americans In Washington DC

Trending on Twitter right now, a group of students, who some say are from Covington Catholic High School in Kentucky, appear to mock & intimidate a Native American protestor at the Indigenous Peoples March yesterday in Washington, DC.

Appalling. This is why that Gillette ad exists.

On Covington's Twitter account (which has been switched to private due to this video), the school describes itself as "Educating Young Men Spiritually, Academically, Physically and Socially."

Does this kid look 'spiritually' educated?

The school's online schedule shows students were in DC to participate in the March for Life. This episode apparently happened after they took part in that march.

Here’s another video of these kids harassing this Native American protestor. The ignorance, the bigotry, is infuriating. This is not the future of this nation.

The Native American elder that MAGA racists mocked is Vietnam veteran Nathan Phillips. He holds a regular ceremony for Native American veterans buried at Arlington.

So the racists who claim kneeling dishonors Vets—just dishonored a Veteran to his face😑https://t.co/Mdb3Ng6Dho

The Native American protestor showed true strength and integrity in the face of bigotry. He was not intimidated or defeated in any way. https://t.co/poUG0ivB8g

Dear Principal Bob Rowe of Covington Catholic High School in Covington Kentucky: your students acted like a gang of Brownshirt Nazis yesterday by surrounding, intimidating, and denigrating Native Americans.

I’m an all-male Catholic high school alum. I am extremely disgusted.
