Maybe you should inform yourself before discussing something and also, if you want racist connotation about this case, few months ago a black girl was expelled from her high school for refusing to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.

And indeed it seems racist to ask black people to make Pledge of Allegiance as James Baldwin once explained
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
