What happens when you broadcast a Kendrick Lamar music video to a class of eighth-grade students? It appears that your community has lost $100,000.<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This is what happened when a teacher at Vernon Center Middle School allegedly showed their students a’shockingly violent’ video of the rapper during a lesson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A student’s father eventually sued the school board and town for causing ‘mental damage’ to his child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Connecticut municipality agreed to a $100,000 payment after the father, a police officer, filed a lawsuit over the claimed graphic nature and poor portrayal of the police department in the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
