Smith College racism accusations that went viral, quietly fell apart
Fox News
An investigation into allegations of racism following an incident at Massachusetts' Smith College has been thrust back into the public spotlight this week amidst the liberal arts school's public disagreement with former administrative assistant Jodi Shaw.
On July 31, 2018, then-rising-sophomore and teaching assistant Oumou Kanoute said she had been eating lunch in the Tyler House dormitory cafeteria when both a janitor and a campus police officer approached her to ask what she was doing there. According to the investigation, which was conducted by Sanghavi Law Office, LLC, on behalf of the school, student workers were not supposed to use the Tyler cafeteria -- a fact that veteran cafeteria employee Jackie Blair reportedly mentioned to Kanoute.More Related News
