    The national office of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity changed its tune.Just two weeks ago, that resulted in the shutdown of the University of Oklahoma SAE chapter, saying, "The national fraternity does not teach such a racist, hateful chant, and this chant is not part of any education or training." The fraternity brothers probably "learned the song from fellow chapter members," SAE said. The SAE national office said otherwise. 

     The OU chapter, SAE said, "likely learned a racist chant while attending a national leadership school about four years ago." The fraternity invites hundreds of leaders to a six-day conference every year, SAE said.

   Actress Taraji P. Henson is apologizing for claiming her son was racially profiled during a traffic stop in Southern California last year. The Glendale Police Department released dash cam video of the encounter Friday, which contradicted her son's claims. 

     Police released the footage after Henson commented about the alleged profiling in an Uptown Magazine interview published last month. In her interview, the star of the hit television show "Empire" said her son, Marcell Johnson, 20, was racially profiled in Glendale and at the University of Southern California, where she accused campus police of stopping him for "having his hands in his pockets."
