Khmer Brothers Claim Racist Bullying in US High School
Brothers Had to Be Homeschooled After District Ignored Racist Bullying by Student Mob, Lawsuit Claims
Kameron and Noah Evans, who were adopted from Cambodia, say they faced years of physical and verbal racist attacks at their Arkansas high school, which is 87.5 percent white.

Two students who were adopted from Cambodia say they endured so much racist bullying at their Arkansas high school—including threats from an “angry mob” of students—that they were forced to withdraw and be homeschooled, according to a federal lawsuit.
The 22-page complaint filed last week by Kameron and Noah Evans alleges that the brothers were bullied at Cabot High School, which is 87.5 percent white, over their “appearance, race, ethnicity, perceived religious beliefs, and beliefs about the need for racial justice.”
During the 2017-2018 school year, the boys’ last in the Cabot School District, 98 percent of the teachers in the district were white, according to the lawsuit, which was first reported by the Arkansas Times. The lawsuit names as defendants Cabot School District, its superintendent Tony Thurman, and the high-school principal, Henry Hawkins.
The boys were “always” perceived “as different and suspicious” by their white peers, the lawsuit claims. In middle school, Kameron’s classmates allegedly spread a false rumor that he was in a flag-burning video that circulated among students on social media. Afterward, “a large, angry mob of students” threatened Kameron at school, “requiring he run for what he felt like was his life,” according to the lawsuit.
“Kameron made it into the principal’s office and was not harmed, but he had to be escorted to class by a police officer for days afterward,” the complaint alleges.
The school declined to discipline any students for threatening Kameron, the lawsuit claims.
Since that encounter, the boys “endured bullying in the form of repeated acts of harassment, humiliation and ridicule,” according to the lawsuit. They were also allegedly subjected to racial slurs—including “n-----,” “chink,” “gook,” and “terrorists”—and told to “go back where you came from” and “you don’t belong here.”
When Kameron told an administrator that another student was “terrorizing him daily by physically punching Kameron and ridiculing him for his inability to prevent the bullying,” he was told to “stay away” from the bully, according to the lawsuit.

They were lucky to not be shot, unlike cuckhold Cambodian military police, US teenagers are quite decent behind a trigger.

Arkansas, 49th in health care, 42nd in education, 46th in public safety. Truly America's finest. They needed the national guard to enforce school desegregation, at the barrel of a gun to allow blacks to attend Little Rock Public Schools.

It's not racist - it is merely stating facts that American school kids are much more likely to kill other American school kids with guns than anywhere else in the world, bar none.

Or did you mean racist against Cambodian shooting ability sorry? Less stats to look at, and plenty of ricochets, you might have got me there.

Yeah, it's the "cuckhold" thing that I thought was a little over the top.

Sorry, was a loose reference to the recent story of the police dude who emptied his revolver at his wife... and she survived. #Stormtrooper
