They Gave Her $580,000 for Saying the N-Word

Video Description

#louisiana #ancestry #nytn #ancestry #findingyourroots #familyhistory #genealogy A woman was caught on camera calling a young Black autistic child the N-word. She didn’t deny it—and later started a fundraiser. That fundraiser has now passed $580,000. I uploaded a document from my own family history. A birth certificate. It simply listed the word “colored.” That post got flagged. This video isn’t about one person—it’s about how platforms treat racism in the present versus history from the past. It’s about the double standard between harm that goes viral… and truth that gets buried. ► Melungeon + Redbones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyLd8rizXCQ&list=PLvzaW1c7S5hS0duqgK5mkBh_9aqIpbooI ► 👕 NYTN Merch: https://www.nytonashville.com ▶Download the first section FREE of my "Be a Good ancestor" course here: https://nytonashville.com/shoplola/be-a-good-ancestor-course-digital-download-videos-bjks6 ✅SUPPORT NYTN CHANNEL ☕Send me a coffee!: https://ko-fi.com/nytn13#linkModal www.patreon.com/NYTN FOLLOW ME 📸 ► YouTube: / @NYTN ► Facebook: / https://www.facebook.com/findinglolafilm/ ► Website: https://www.nytonashville.com/ ► X: / https://twitter.com/ImFindingLola/ OTHER VIDEO PLAYLISTS ► Melungeon + Redbones: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyLd8rizXCQ&list=PLvzaW1c7S5hS0duqgK5mkBh_9aqIpbooI ► "Who Counts as..."

My name is Danielle Romero, and all my life, I have romanticized Louisiana. Growing up in New York, it represented a place where I could step back the sepia-toned life of my great grandmother, Lola Perot, who died before I was born. Now, it was time to go back to Louisiana--although I had no idea what the truth would be or what questions to ask---who was Lola really? Who were we? *Amazon links are affiliate links.
