Racial Chants Erupt at Basketball Game Between Two Catholic Schools

School officials at two northwest Indiana schools are investigating what appears to be racially motivated chants at a basketball game.

Chants of “Si se puede!”–Spanish for “Yes we can!”–erupted from the super fan section of Bishop Noll Institute, a predominantly Latino school in Hammond, Ind. They responded to what spectator Ashley Howard calls a very racist exchange started by rival team Andrean High School.

She says the chants included “Build a wall!” and “Please speak English! No comprende!”

In a statement, both schools say this as a teaching and healing moment while adding the incident remains under investigation.
