A white woman was fired from her job after she screamed racist comments at her Black neighbor over a disagreement between their children.

Laquetta Good shared footage captured by a security camera outside her house after her neighbor, Hilary, showed up at her door ready for a confrontation.

According to Good, Hilary’s children told her 6-year-old that she “had on a wig” and that they “hope she died” while they were on the bus to school. They later had a verbal altercation with Good’s son because he was defending his little sister, Good says, and that allegedly prompted Hilary to come over to complain.
The first video shows her angrily storming up to Good’s porch, but it’s the subsequent clips where things get particularly heated.
“Watch me handle this,” Hilary yells in one clip. “You are not the right color, honey.”
Another shows Good asking: “I’m a [N-word]?” to which the neighbor responds that yes, she is.

Hilary appears to be on the phone with the police in several of the clips, and one video shows a police officer conversing with Good outside of her house. Good has also alleged that this is not the first time her neighbor has called the police on her.
The incident went down in Colonial Heights, Virginia, and Hilary worked at a food bank in nearby Chesterfield — until the CEO saw the footage, anyway.
“We, here at the [Chesterfield Food Bank], are broken-hearted to view this conduct as it goes directly against our values and beliefs. We are honored to serve everyone in need with dignity & integrity,” CEO Kim Hill said in a statement. “In response to this situation, we have terminated this employee.”

Good also shared that protestors showed up at her house to support her after the altercation went viral. She is currently looking into leasing her home and moving her family somewhere else.
