Not begrudging them the money -- people can give and if this family can take a nice vacation or pay off their mortgage, good for them. But it seems bizarre that we live in a world where (1) trash people call children racist names at playgrounds, AND (2) being called a racist name at a playground results in a huge financial windfall for your family. Just an extremely weird system we've set up here.

It’s for legal fees. That was a hate crime.

They're treating her like a hero for "standing up" to a 5 year old, for God's sake--a 5 year old!--and laying bare their racism, while whining about being victims. Has it always been this way or did Trump unleash the ugliness in people?

She started this by raining down hate speech on a 5 year old, but she wants money because she might have to move and her own two small children “don’t deserve” to be impacted by the consequences of her actions?! The internet is everywhere, lady. Moving isn’t gonna fix this.

They are not taking a vacation, but goodness, what if they did? What if this family who suffered a baseless attack also got to receive a gift that would bring joy? Wow! Terrrible!

The GFM is run by the NAACP to:
We’ve been asked by countless community members how they can help. This campaign is our answer.
• Legal redress and social justice efforts in support of the child and family.
• Legal advocacy, accountability, and restorative efforts, also in support of the child and family.

So the money will be used to work on the specific harm- counseling, maybe they will have to move, etc and the larger systemic problem. So relax, they're not getting goodies, just an attempt to restore damage and keep it from happening again.

Legal redress for name calling? All of sounds like a slush fund to pay lawyers and NOT the family.

Terrorizing a small child and their family with screaming and repeated use of a racial slur that goes along with violence is much more than name calling. You're either extremely ignorant or deliberately trying to minimize what that word means, especially in this context.

I asked this question of my teen and she said "meth. He tried to steal her meth." I looked at her pic and it tracks.
