The Ontario high school student who was told by his school that he could not wear a Halloween costume culturally appropriating his own culture was suspended for three days for mocking the school’s censorship.

MRCTV previously reported St. Thomas Aquinas Secondary School ninth grader Joshua Sewerynek had planned to dress up in a mariachi outfit as part of his school’s Halloween celebration. In order to ensure that the Halloween costumes did not violate any of the school’s designated appropriateness rules, the school requested students tweet their prospective Halloween costumes at the school’s Twitter for pre-approval.

Sewerynek asked his school if he could wear the mariachi outfit that included elements of his own Colombian culture. The school’s response was that Sewerynek could not wear his costume because it is “very offensive.”

After denying Sewerynek’s request, the school shared an image about “cultural appropriation,” despite Sewerynek being Hispanic and mariachi being part of his Hispanic culture.

In order to show derision for the school’s decision, Sewerynek tweeted out an image of the school’s mascot, a cardinal named “Cardy,” wearing a Nazi armband and with a Nazi flag flying in the background.

Sewerynek told MRCTV he was punished for his alleged improper social media use and given a three day suspension between Oct. 30-Nov 2.

The Twitter account for the school has since been removed.
