As a former national quiz bowl champion, and a proud American, watching what happened to Singh in the Freedom 250 civics competition infuriated me.
The Trump administration has spread their xenophobic racism to all aspects of our society. You can bet this was just another example of it!
Shame
This is not the America I thought I knew. Absolute disgrace and I don’t know how we climb out of this hole.
Horrible. Hopefully he will use the experience in a positive way in his brilliant future. Amazing what you went through Chloe! Congratulations!
This makes me FURIOUS! Un-f***ing believable!
Mr. Singh don't let Amerikkkan racism slow you down. You embarrassed the system take comfort in that fact you are smarter than will live to be😉💯👍👌
Thank you for calling out this injustice!
This enrages me. How dare they take something from a child that worked hard to achieve something because they are virulent racists!
It sounds like he should have won, but these are the days of rump, and these days a cute white person had better win or the judges would never be heard from again.
In doubting that a contest was fairly scored, the student and his family are following in the footsteps of rump, except that their case is valid.
So much for “meritocracy”. Based on his work ethic and intelligence, he has a bright future regardless of their judgement.
