Russell Dickerson, Harassed and Threatened in Aberdeen Schools for Being Black, Settles Case
Categories: Race
Growing up African-American in the harbor town of Aberdeen, young Russell Dickerson III was just a "nigger" to some of his classmates. Miller Junior High students tripped him in the hallway for being black. They knocked him about and smashed an egg on his head. It got worse when he reached Aberdeen High School - spit upon, hit with flying objects, and eventually threatened with a lynching. But now he has gotten a bit even.
