Racist graffiti found in a Missouri high school's bathrooms was the product of a "hate hoax," the school district announced Tuesday.

When faculty at Parkway Central High School in St. Louis County announced that racist graffiti had been uncovered earlier in September, students and community members across the district staged a walkout in condemnation of the incident.

However, the culprit behind the graffiti was a nonwhite student, according to a letter sent to parents, Supt. Keith Marty announced Tuesday.

"The student responsible is not white," Marty wrote. "This does not diminish the hurt it caused or the negative impact it has had on our entire community."

The student admitted to writing the messages, and the graffiti constituted a violation of the district's policies, Marty said.

"The student is facing severe disciplinary consequences and referral to law enforcement for investigation," the letter read. "Parkway will continue to hold students responsible for any behavior that threatens or degrades others in our school community."

Even though the student was not white, the school condemned the action and praised the student-led walkout efforts.

"Students proactively led walkouts at multiple Parkway high schools and in these moments, many students shared personal experiences of racism throughout their lives and at school," Marty wrote.

There is still work to be done to ensure schools are an inclusive place, the letter concluded.

"Let us use this opportunity to continue to grow as a community to be more compassionate, peaceful and loving individuals with care for all," Marty said.

  13 Fascinating Scientific Facts About Blue Eyes Story by Amanda Gardner  •  2w   Like most human traits, blue eyes are determined by genes, and no two people have exactly the same hue. It works a lot like individual  fingerprints , making our eyes two of the most distinctive parts of us. The color of your eyes is really the color of your iris, the ring that surrounds the black pupil in the middle of your eye. Unlike some other  inherited traits  (like the color of your hair), eye color typically doesn’t change naturally throughout your life. Sure, it can appear to vary depending on the external light source, but the pigment shouldn’t fluctuate (if your eyes do seem to change color, see a specialist). But your eyes aren’t just a pretty feature of your face. They can provide surprising insight into your personality, health status and where you came from in the big story of human history. We talked to three expertsdoctors and researchers with a deep und...

What happens on America's Subways - Wild Assaults and Murders - Typically Featuring one Demographic

 There are so many, and I mean so many news stories and videos online of assaults, and murders on the subway systems particularly New York. What is one of the common denominators? Well people can point to lots of things like poverty, mental illness, and so forth, but to me it seems like it is Black people.  An old video but still relevant nonetheless. A woman riding the training only to be almost murdered by beating without provocation by a Wakandan prince: The craziness continues: The stabbings: I could go on all day.  How people can enjoy living in a place like that, without having their own private transportation is beyond me. Isn't New York one of the most expensive cities in the world too? Slave your whole life away just to be killed by violent crime...
