Headline Roundup January 21st, 2019
A video showing a Kentucky student confronting a Native American man draws controversy, as a fuller video complicates the uproar.

The student in the video said he’s received death threats after the confrontation, and attempted to clarify that he was trying to help defuse the situation.

The furor over the behavior of a group of Catholic school students from Kentucky toward a Native American elder during weekend protests in Washington, D.C., took a turn Sunday with the emergence of a new video.

The Kentucky high school student seen in a viral video standing-face-to-face with a Native American protester at a Washington rally spoke out for the first time Sunday evening, claiming in a statement that he and his classmates were taunted by a group of African-American protesters and saying that he and his family had received death threats.
