A student assembly on Wednesday at Washington’s Sidwell Friends School, one of the nation’s top prep schools, turned into a frightening example of hate’s pervasive reach when unidentified students projected swastikas and racist usernames on a screen in a meeting room. “Nobody saw the swastikas at first,” one senior who participated in the game told HuffPost on Wednesday night. After two questions, a username consisting only of two swastikas shot into first place after successfully answering a question about immigration. That evening, Bryan Garman, the head of the school, sent an email to parents and guardians of the students. “There is no place for hate in our community, and I will address the Upper School about the seriousness of the matter tomorrow morning.”
