Mom raises $500K after hurling racist slur at child in viral video
A video of a Rochester, Minnesota, mom appearing to hurl a racist slur at a Black child on a city playground earlier this week has been circulating widely across social media, garnering criticism from many viewers and a half-million dollars in donations from others.
The online donations poured in alongside notes expressing far-right and racist sympathies, prompting a decision to mute comments by the Christian crowdfunding service hosting the campaign, which has been used to raise money for Daniel Penny, Luigi Mangione and Kyle Rittenhouse. The woman’s fundraiser prompted the local NAACP chapter in Rochester to start its own crowdfunding campaign for the family of the 5-year-old, who the group said had been called the n-word multiple times. The NAACP chapter had raised more than $320,000 by Saturday afternoon. “Shockingly, the woman responsible for this hateful act has launched a fundraising campaign for herself,” the Rochester NAACP said. “... Many of the comments from her supporters celebrate and justify her hate. We’ve been asked by countless community members how they can help. This campaign is our answer.”

A fundraiser on GiveSendGo titled “Help Me Protect My Family” was started by Shiloh Hendrix, who identified herself as the mother who appeared to use the slur in the video. Hendrix did not respond to a request for comment Saturday. Hendrix’s fundraiser, which attracted accounts signing off with names and comments referencing Holocaust denial and white nationalism, stated she had been harassed online after the video drew millions of views across TikTok, Twitter and Reddit and needed to raise money to relocate. The incident on video started after Hendrix accused the Black child of stealing from her child’s diaper bag, according to the fundraiser. “I called the kid out for what he was,” Hendrix’s fundraiser reads, adding that a man then began filming her and later posted the video of the encounter online, “which has caused my family, and myself, great turmoil.”

I don’t get why the mother needs money to relocate, nor why the family of the little boy who was stealing whom she yelled at needs money. It seems like people are rewarding both for bad behavior.

Something tells me she won't see a lot of that $500k - probably a couple of big donations that won't be able to collect on.
Meanwhile - all of her neighbors have seen it and hope she and her child gets what's coming to them. And they will.

See, a well-placed, Hey, why are you such a Cunt, can be so handy in situations like this.
I'm not sure anybody needs legal remedies here, but the perpetual use of "hey, cunt" should follow her all the days of her life.

What was left out of the story was that she had been doxxed and someone leaked her name, address, family members' names, and her social security number. Please don't come at me, I am just the messenger. The woman is awful.

R7 No, of course not. Clearly the adult’s behavior is atrocious, obnoxious and dangerous.
But the child shouldn’t be rewarded either.

The five year old child isn't being rewarded, r12, he's being compensated. Again with the bothsides.

There are shitty people of all colors. We will all encounter them at some points in our lives. Not sure several hundred thousand dollars will help that child in any way. A sober discussion with loving, supportive parents united in their dedication towards helping him succeed in this world would. Part of that discussion needs to be that stealing is wrong.
The woman is probably beyond help at this point. She’s just an ignorant asshole.

Help him in any immediate way emotionally, I should add. If the parents create a college fund or starter house fund for him, that could help his older self.

r18 Meanwhile, Karmelo Anthony has raised hundred thousands of dollars for murdering someone in cold blood. His gofundme messages literally have comments like "Death to all White men." Fuck off with this perpetual one-sided victimhood. And yes, I do think that getting murdered is much worse than being called a slur word.

Are all these flyover cunts of different races getting together having the white person say something ignant’, the black person morbidly offended, and then they all make a bunch of bank via social media and GoFundMes.

I saw the original video of the white mother claiming that the black child was "stealing" so she called him a n****r. It was revolting — but frankly, exactly what to expect in Trump's America. Before we even get to the abhorrent fundraising schemes, I want to know that the kid was "stealing" and if it was "stealing" at all, or was it a couple of children playing, white bigot seeing her child interacting with a black child and getting upset that it might teach her spawn that we're all the same and deserve respect?

Yup
[quote] In his voicemail, he referred to the Black autistic child and other Black people as “Black negroes,” distorted what happened, which we can clearly see the viral video, relegated the vitriolic, racist, epithet as “just a word.” he then referred to black people as “clowns” who “use it everyday” to justify Hendrix calling the child a ni88er.
[quote] He closed his vitriolic, racist message by telling me to “shut up“ and to preach to the “fools that listen” to my “crap” and “leave the country alone.”
