Trinity Washington, an 11-year-old Black girl in Chicago, was allegedly attacked after her neighbors — who were reportedly celebrating Mexican Independence Day — hurled racial slurs at her and her family last weekend.
The alleged attack has left the girl requiring at least two surgeries so far, according to a report from ABC 7 Chicago.
More information about the alleged attack can be found here.
