The Houston NAACP, Rainbow Push Coalition, along with other activists are demanding the Houston Independent School District immediately terminate the contracts of the head baseball coach and assistant coach for Bellaire High School after racial slur allegations surfaced.
"Information that has surfaced has been quite disturbing," said Dr. James Dixon, II, President of Houston NAACP.These allegations are now currently being investigated by the district. Community members voiced their concerns, as HISD’s Superintendent, Millard House, was in attendance. Emilia Robinson, who was at the baseball game with her son says, he heard the slurs.
"Coach Nick Ozuna is the victim of a smear campaign, which has left him unable to defend himself by his employer's directive not to speak about the investigation while those who yell F---- bombs at high school baseball games accuse him of being a racist. For 18 years, Coach Ozuna has led the Bellaire Baseball team and had one of the most winning programs in Texas.
