A student at Ole Miss has come forward and apologized for their actions after a video went viral of two White women making racist noises and gestures outside a Black student’s apartment.
“I would have never intentionally made those noises or gestures toward a person of color,” Alaina Kunes said in a statement, according to NBC affiliate WMC. “I have apologized to the women, and I pray they will forgive me.”
“I can never truly understand the pain I have caused them and it was never my intention,” she continued. “These girls deserve to feel seen and understood and what I did is not a reflection of who I am trying to become.”
Kunes added that she will “cooperate fully with the University’s investigation,” with the school confirming to PEOPLE that she is no longer a student at the school. NBC News reports that Kunes withdrew from the university.
“I understand the seriousness of this situation and remain committed to taking responsibility and learning from this embarrassing ordeal,” Kunes stated, also asking for privacy for herself and her family as she says they have been harassed and received death threats.
The 13-second video that was captured by a Ring camera went viral on TikTok. The video showed Kunes and two other women walking by the front door where three Black Ole Miss students live. Kunes was seen beating her chest while one of the other women made ape noises. The third woman just walked past the door. The video has been viewed over 12.5 million times as of Tuesday, Nov. 10.
“This is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. College is supposed to be a place where young adults can learn, grow, and feel safe,” a mother of one of the three Black students wrote a Facebook post. “We want answers. Specifically, what steps will be taken to address this behavior and ensure accountability?”
