A video went viral on social media over the weekend after a racist New Yorker was caught on camera having a confrontation with a pedestrian.
The video starts out with a white man yell from his stopped car for someone to stop blocking the road. Then he fires off a racial slur.
“F*cking n****r,” the man yells from inside his car.
Another pedestrian recorded the incident. When the man realized he was being put on camera, he got out of his car and assaulted the man recording.
“Are you recording me?”
The video was posted to “city council candidate” Andrew Beckford’s Twitter account this Sunday.
“Racist on the Upper East Side. Find out who this racist person is and let us hold them accountable. This and any other act of racism will NOT be tolerated,” Beckford wrote. “As City Council Member of #District45, I will be holding these racists accountable.”
