Wow!

I don't know what to say.

A pee-wee football game between Hudson and Shaker Heights turned into a lesson on racism.

Shaker parents say that Hudson fans, took their team spirit too far. They say those fans became offensive, even racist, because they wore black face and afro wigs.

The parents also claim the Hudson fans beat on frying pans on the sidelines.

Some of the kids on the Shaker team even say they used racial slurs.

It was supposed to be about fun building skills and teamwork. To the seven eight and nine year olds on the Shaker team, the game ended up being about our country's racist past.

"They were calling us "n”s -- the "n" word," is what one nine year old said.

"They shouldn't say that to other people because they don't know what it means to us,” another player said.

The racial slur was enough to bother these kids but it wasn't all they faced on the field. There were Hudson fans dressed in black face.

“I can't really imagine any analysis that would allow them to say it's OK to dress kids in black face and put black wigs on and bang frying pans," coach Jeffrey Saffold said.

“For them to expose their opponents to fans with afros and black face, that's not what we bought into,” another coach, Gregory Alexander said. "One of the things that makes it so bad is it was allowed to continue."

Little kids cannot even play ball without this kind of ignorance?
