Black Teen Rower Says White Teens Called Her Rosa Parks and N-Word After Competition
Myasia Joga, a high school student at Absegami High School in Galloway, N.J., says that after a recent rowing competition she became the victim of racial slurs from a group of white male teen rowers on the opposing team.
Myasia says that after a Mother’s Day rowing competition, she had to sit on a separate jitney from her teammates because theirs was full. When she got on the jitney, she says two members of the Mainland Regional High School team sat next to her and called her “Rosa Parks” before using the n-word, according to NBC 10.
