Video shows shouts of ‘white power!’ outside Black Homewood woman’s residence

A video posted to social media Monday shows the occupants of a truck shouting “white power!” outside the home of a Black Homewood resident.

Felita Wilson, who posted the video, said the incident happened outside her home off Valley Avenue.

“My daughter and her boyfriend were getting out of the car and two white guys in a white pickup truck were driving up to the corner of Beckham and Barry to turn left towards Valley,” Wilson said.

According to Wilson, the occupants of the truck yelled “White power! White power!” as they passed. On the video, the shouts can be heard and the truck spotted in the background.

Wilson posted the video from her doorbell camera to Facebook.

Attempts to reach Wilson for comment were not immediately successful. A Homewood police spokesman said, as of this morning, the department has not received a report of the incident.

“We have lived in Homewood for years…. Raised our children here and don’t intend to be harassed and most definitely not intimidated,” Wilson wrote. “So if anyone happens to know who this may be please advise them that this will NOT be tolerated at all. It’s disgusting.”
