A video called a “rape dance” was posted on YouTube
Clip was taken inside the Mitchell High School Gym. News Channel 3 investigation has now uncovered another tape.
A video posted on YouTube.com is causing a lot of concern among Memphis City School parents. Now were trying to find solutions.
The clip labeled, “Mitchell High School Memphis … Rape Dat Ho,” was posted last month. It was flagged as offensive then taken down, but not before News Channel 3 recorded the clip on tape.
The images are disturbing. They are graphic and hard to watch. It shows young men and women engaging in what one parent described as “sex with clothes on.”
We sat down with four women from Girls Inc. in Uptown Memphis. The group’s mission is to inspire young girls to be “strong, smart and bold.””Where are the chaperones? Who’s really watching? They feel so free to do this,” Girls Inc. Outreach Coordinator Monique Clayton said after viewing the tape. She works with young women inside Memphis City Schools.
She says solving this problem starts with honesty. “Are you willing to accept and admit there may be a problem in your school? School systems may not be willing to accept that,” she says.
