Parents are calling for the firing of a Louisiana teacher after she made a racist comment in a public Facebook group.

Julie Colley, a tutor and facilitator at Ossun Elementary School in Lafayette Parish, Louisiana made the comment on a public post in the Facebook group Whatz Goin On in Acadiana about a recent Back to School event in a Black neighborhood.

Referring to the event's location, Colley used a racist nickname containing the n-word used for decades to deride communities with high proportions of Black people.

See the comment below.

Colley wrote:

"I'm not going at 6:30. Cameron St? [That's n-word-ville] after dark lol."

Colley has since deleted the comment, but screenshots have been heavily circulated.

According to a Lafayette Parish school district spokesperson, a "thorough investigation into the matter" has been launched.

The incident is particularly worrying given Ossun Elementary's high concentration of Black students, which comprise about 45% of the student body. And that has led to countless shocked and outraged parents calling for Colley's firing.

Parent Nureaka Ross decried Colley's influence over impressionable children.

"I'm seriously concerned, she's poisoning the minds of the most vulnerable... For her to feel so comfortable making a statement of that magnitude such as [n-word-ville] on a public forum, it speaks volumes."

Robin Bugge echoed that sentiment, blaming Colley's actions on White privilege.

"I think there is an audacity of white women to say whatever they want in these spaces. And it's not alright and especially not around children."

Local leaders are calling for Colley's removal, too.

Speaking to newspaper The Acadiana Advocate, Vice President of the local NAACP chapter Marja Broussard did not mince words about the shocking racism Colley has shown.

"We will not tolerate this bigotry that continues to traumatize our youth and further the narrative that our Black children are second-class citizens.
d"We are calling on Superintendent Trosclair to immediately remove Ms. Colley from any ability to further traumatize students, especially Black and Brown, Indigenous, and immigrants or from any ability to continue to teach this mentality to innocent students trusted in her care."

On social media, people were similarly outraged by Colley's actions.










Colley has not been fired as of this writing.

MAGA fans are losing their minds online after an X account posted a rage bait tweet claiming that New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani will "require all New York elementary school students to learn Arabic numerals"—completely overlooking a key fact about the numbers we already use from day to day.

Mamdani, a democratic socialist, will take office in January after winning November's election despite a wave of racist and Islamophobic attacks. His win has rocked the political establishment nationwide and sent shockwaves around the world.

Even MAGA Podcaster Joe Rogan Is Ripping Trump For Flip-Flopping On The Epstein Files Release

Conservative podcaster Joe Rogan criticized the Trump administration's shaky narrative around the Epstein files and shared his disbelief over President Donald Trump's complete 180 on releasing the documents after spending months calling them a "hoax."

Trump is widely believed to be in the Epstein files and had long rejected calls by his followers to release them, admonishing critics of Attorney General Pam Bondi, who concluded earlier this year that no such list exists, despite claiming the exact opposite just months prior.

Fans Are Hilariously Losing It Over How Bad 'Frankenstein' Star Jacob Elordi's Handwriting Is

Euphoria’s most problematic heartthrob, Jacob Elordi, has many talents: being tall, his bathwater, looking tall, abs, towering over furniture, starring in prestige films, somehow surviving The Kissing Booth trilogy, and now—apparently—having the world’s cutest, wobbliest signature.

Yes, the internet managed to turn handwriting discourse into a cultural moment, and Elordi’s block-letter autograph has officially eclipsed every actual quote in The Academy’s new “Words of Wisdom” video.
