Women are reportedly upstairs neighbors of three Black students, including one who uploaded video to TikTok
Two white students at the University of Mississippi were captured making offensive monkey gestures in a widely panned Ring video that has prompted a school investigation.
On Saturday, freshman Jakiyra Metcalf uploaded the surveillance clip from her apartment door to TikTok, showing one woman thumping her chest and babbling like a monkey. Another woman jumped into the camera’s view and mimicked the primate noises.
The video, which has nearly 13m views, drew outrage over the racist connotation.
Racism in Mississippi?
No wai…
I would have never intentionally made those noises or gestures toward a person of color,” Kunes said. “I have apologized to the women, and I pray they will forgive me.”
Can we not quote obvious lies without pointing to the fact that they are obvious lies?
Does this need a new type of punctuation? Something like a double quotation?
“”I would have never been a piece of shit if I ever thought I could be caught.””
Or a new slash /r for racism?
I would have never been a piece of shit if I ever thought I could be caught. /r
I would have preferred something even more ridiculous, like… “Acutally, I’m applying for the primatology school to become a primatologist and just happened to be sharing some observations I made during my internship at the zoo that I thought were very interesting. I would never purposely do that in front of a person of color’s apartment from my composition 120 class that I followed home.”
lol yeah…
“I have never intentionally done this thing that I was recorded on video doing intentionally”
