A woman from Tennessee said she called police after her daughter was allegedly hit across the face by her neighbor’s child after a series of racist incidents between the two families.
The mother, TikTok username @super_stellar03, uploaded a video of her confrontation with the neighbor and a conversation with police.
The mother said her family had recently moved to Tennessee from Ohio and had experienced racism in their new neighborhood. She alleged that the dispute began after the neighbor’s children were told to keep away from her family.
Daughter Allegedly Came Home With a Mark on Her Face
The mother told police that her children sometimes played with neighborhood children because the families lived close to each other.
On the day of the incident, she said the neighbor allegedly told her children to go outside and tell her children, “Tell those black people to stay away from my porch.”
The mother said that the children later met at a nearby basketball court. She said the neighbor’s children initially acted as though everything was normal and began playing with her children.
Her daughter explained, “He said he’s gonna throw the ball in my face. So when I got up, I was like, ‘Where am I?’ And then he threw it on my face.”
The girl said she thought he was joking and challenged him, saying he would not do it. However, she said he threw the ball at her face and called her a “b—-.”
The mother said, “This lady has been 214, she’s been making racist comments about my kids.”
The mother showed her daughter with a visible red mark and told police she did not believe her children had provoked the boy. She also questioned whether the incident was connected to the alleged racial remarks made toward her family.
Neighbor’s Alleged Racist Remarks Sparked Confrontation
The mother said the family had experienced racist comments since moving from Ohio. She also noted, “I contacted the office. They said they would handle it. They were gonna have a meeting with her.”
In the video of the confrontation, the mother approached the neighbor’s home to discuss what had allegedly happened. The neighbor came outside holding a school photograph of her nephew.
She reportedly said, “My nephew is black. I’m not racist.”
The mother then brought her own children into the conversation and identified the boy she believed had thrown the ball at her daughter. The two women discussed the alleged incident while the children stood nearby. The mother also commented that the children appeared frightened during the exchange.
The confrontation followed the mother’s claim that the neighbor had instructed her children to tell her family to stay away from the porch because they were Black.
Mother Contacted Police Over the Alleged Assault
The mother later explained the situation to a police officer, describing the alleged racial comments, the encounter at the basketball court and her daughter’s injury.
She clarified that the children were familiar with one another and sometimes played together. She also said she did not believe her daughter had done anything to provoke the boy.
During the conversation, the officer asked whether the children had argued or done anything that might have led to the incident. The mother said they had simply been playing.
The daughter also repeated her account, explaining that the boy threatened to throw the ball at her face before doing so. The mother asked the officer what could be done, explaining that she was new to the area and had not dealt with something like this before.
Police later spoke with the boy and his mother about the alleged incident. The original report did not confirm whether charges were filed or whether further action was taken.
Viewers Reacted to the Alleged Racist Incident
The videos prompted strong reactions from viewers, with several supporting the mother and encouraging her to pursue legal action.
One viewer said, “I don’t care if she provoked him; that doesn’t give him the right to hit her with that ball.”
