Holly Frye says her son was in class at South Ogden Junior High while teacher Douglas Barker repeatedly used the word before showing an edited version of the Civil War movie "Glory." She says not only is she upset the word was used, but, that the teacher has been allowed to come back to class. District officials say they're not excusing the use of the word, but, that Barker was trying to use it in the context of the movie.
