Breaking: White Mom Doxxed After Park Confrontation Raises $320k Amid Growing ‘White Fatigue’
In a story that is rapidly gaining national attention, a white mother in Rochester, identified in her fundraiser as Shiloh, has raised over $320,000 after an incident at a local park led to her being doxxed and harassed. The situation, which we covered in our latest video, appears to be a clear manifestation of growing tensions and what we’ve termed “white fatigue”.
According to Shiloh’s account on her fundraiser, a child allegedly rummaged through and stole items from her 18-month-old son’s diaper bag at the park. When Shiloh confronted the child, she used a word she felt was appropriate at the time. A man, who Shiloh claims has a history with law enforcement, began recording her and followed her car.
This video was subsequently posted online, leading to significant turmoil for Shiloh and her family. Her social security number, address, and phone number have been leaked, family members attacked, and her eldest child may not be able to return to school. She even stated that her location for exercise has been exposed. Shiloh says she and her two small children have been threatened to the extreme and fears they must relocate. People have called Child Protective Services on her child.
This aggressive reaction, according to our video, is disproportionate and reflective of what we’re calling “white fatigue,” a term previously used to describe the pressures faced by black individuals, but which is now being repurposed to reference a general malaise within the white community. This fatigue stems from a perception that other communities, specifically the black community in this instance, are not held accountable for their actions and operate under a different set of rules.
We argue that the level of outrage directed at Shiloh for her words is excessive. While people may disagree with what she said, she has the right to say it under the First Amendment. We see white individuals called heinous things by black individuals daily without legal consequence. We maintain that saying a word, even the one used, is not illegal in America. Hate speech is not a legal concept in this country.
The reaction to Shiloh mirrors, in our view, the “Karmelo Anthony effect”. Karmelo Anthony reportedly raised $500,000. We believe much of that money came from people who were celebrating the death of a white teenager. In contrast, Shiloh raised over $320,000, not for saying a word, but because she was doxxed, harassed, and received threats after the video went viral. People donating to Shiloh are doing so because they are sick of seeing white people, as we see it, put at a disadvantage, disparaged, and crimes against them seemingly celebrated or given light sentences. We referenced a separate story where, according to our sources, a black man killed an elderly white man over a word and received only two years of house arrest.
Both the Rochester police and the local NAACP branch are reportedly looking into the incident. The NAACP released a statement expressing outrage. However, we question what charges could legally be filed against Shiloh for using a word. We believe the police should instead investigate the harassment Shiloh is facing, the calls to CPS, and the man who followed her.
We contend that the power of a word lies in the reaction it provokes. Black folks, in our view, are the ones giving the word power through their actions, outrage, and what we see as “grifting”. They are the only ones who can remove its power.
Media portrayals, in our opinion, are misrepresenting the situation, suggesting Shiloh raised money simply for using the word. This is disingenuous; the money is a response to the severe harassment she experienced.
This entire situation feels like a dangerous escalation, and we highlighted a tweet suggesting that suburban white moms are becoming radicalized in response to these events. The presence of individuals from certain communities, such as Somalis in Minnesota, is a separate but relevant context we’ve touched upon.
The community’s support has pushed Shiloh’s fundraiser past $320,000, with a goal of $1 million. She will likely need to move out of her neighborhood.
As we cover these important and often controversial stories on our channel, we rely on support from our audience. We’re currently trying to move 4,000 units of our coffee sampler packs. These are $10 off on Amazon and make a great Mother’s Day gift, but even if you don’t need a gift, picking one up helps us significantly. We need to move 350 units today. Buying one and leaving a review as a verified customer would be a tremendous help, as our entire company is at risk if we don’t move these. We made a mistake ordering too many, but your benefit is our hope.
