A Georgia high school said it is investigating how a doctored photo of Martin Luther King Jr. with the N-word in it was published in its yearbook.
The photograph of the student posing with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. while holding a sheet of paper that reads "Official N-word Pass." The student's face and the writing on the paper have been blurred by NBC News.Wing said the photo was"inappropriate and racist" and"we will take appropriate action with those involved."
"As these photos were not available, the yearbook company replaced those pages with senior selfies that had been submitted," she said."That said, this photo was submitted by our yearbook staff and we are meeting with those involved to determine how that occurred," she said.
