School's Robocall Keeps Mispronouncing Daughter's Name As A Racial Slur

Nicomi Stewart, a mother in Rochester, New York, is "disgusted" after an automated call sent to her phone from the city's school district mispronounced her daughter's name as a racial slur.

Stewart's daughter is named Nicarri. Stewart told WHAM TV the message clearly began, "This is Edison Career and Technology High School. Your daughter, N****r, has missed period one on."

The call came after Nicarri missed a day of class at Edison Career and Technology High School.

The racially insensitive robocall came more than once so Stewart was able to record the message.

"I was like, wow, am I really hearing you correctly, did the machine just say this?" Stewart told WHAM TV. "It was unbelievable. I was shocked. I was disgusted. I was upset."

Even stranger: Stewart said the robocalls correctly pronounced Nicarri's name last year.

Although a school administrator told Stewart her daughter's name would be removed from the automated calling system, she says she's received at least two other calls that mispronounced her daughter's name the same way.

"It's disrespectful and it's degrading. I don't even use that word in my house, so why is my child being called this?" Stewart told WHAM TV.



Lawrence Bo Wright, the deputy superintendent of administration for the Rochester City School District, publicly apologized to Stewart.

"Representatives from the district have talked with the family and apologized profusely, as we should," he told WHAM TV. "We can't say enough how sorry we are."

He blamed the issue on a software error with Blackboard Connect, a vendor it contracts with to send out mass notifications.

"It's very similar to technologies that you use that are centered around GPS, where sometimes the system will have mispronounced a name," Wright told the station. "And that's how that occurred."

What does "Your daughter, N****r, has missed period one on." actually mean.

Also do all blacks not call each other hahahahahaha (hahahahahaha = N-I-G-G-A-R). Why are they suddenly offended. All I have to do is turn on the radio and any number of artists are using the N word.

BRILLIANT.... SO GFY the FREE SPEECH forum sensors the word N-I-G-G-A-R

I read that, too. “Blacks” may use the N word but it isn’t used as a slur. Anyone else using it is, most likely, using it as an insult.

Btw, it is spelled ****er not ar. In school we learned it’s an abbreviation for “an ignorant” person. I had a T-shirt that said “if you call someone a n*g** then you’re one. It’s an old run-together term for AN IGNORANT. Takes one to know one” (say it fast to get the pronunciation right)

School tried to ban it. They mistakenly thought it was me calling names. I explained it was against the N word, they said I had to black out letters. I said, “not white out letters?” They laughed but got my point n

I stopped wearing it to school.

yes, I'm sure the programme realised that the chances of some stupid cow calling her unfortunate daughter Nicarri was high and added a few lines of code to turn just that word into a racial slut.
Oh, what a wheeze!
