Elite Poly prep school students paint faces black, jump around making monkey noises

An elite Brooklyn private school has been thrown into chaos by a racist blackface video filmed and circulated by students, the Daily News has learned.

World-famous Poly Prep Day School in Dyker Heights was reeling this week over a video of white students in blackface jumping around making monkey noises, school sources said.

Poly Prep Head of School Audrius Barzdukas
“We will not tolerate racism in our school. We will foster a culture where we seek to understand one another and to bridge cultures,” he wrote in the letter, adding: “I promise that we will do everything possible to make positive change going forward, and I invite you all to hold us accountable.”


And then do as the Umoja demand. LISTEN TO THEM!!!
