Sherrod, 62, insisted her statements in the video were not racist.
"For Fox to take a spin on this like they have done, and know it’s not the truth … it’s very upsetting," she said.
.............
The AJC is trying to recover the full video footage of Sherrod's speech to the Douglas NAACP.
She said the circumstances made it absurd for her to have made any racist comment.
"There were some white people there. The mayor (of Douglas) was there," Sherrod recalled. "Why would I do something racist if they were there?"

“and here I was faced with having to help a white person save their land. So I didn’t give him the full force of what I could do. I did enough.”
OK - I give up
If she did nothing wrong - whay pray tell, is she now out of a job?
Of course they weren't and neither is the NAACP, the Black Caucus, Black Liberation Theology or any of the multitudes of race based organizations. /s
I saw the short clip yesterday. To be fair, I thought it was racist at the beginning and maybe it was, but her comment at the end that she seemed to realize that it was much more a poor v. rich situation does make a point.
but of course! They’re victims don-cha-know! how could they be guilty? only Whitey is guilty!
This comment tells you something not only about her personal anger but the prevailing attitude of most appointed U.S. Federal Government Employees. They do just 'enough', which means next to nothing.
This OBAMA Administration has a plethora of appointees who think and act like her. She just happens to be remarkably stupid about it.
Next time they’ll just get smarter about it and not say it on videotape.
“There were some white people there...Why would I do something racist if they were there?”

I guess she usually saves her racist remarks for when
she is with “her own kind” (to use her own words).
If what she is saying is true, then using a piece of video clipped out of a broader story to make her out a racist is just plain wrong.
“and here I was faced with having to help a white person save their land. So I didn’t give him the full force of what I could do. I did enough.”
This is the subtle racism whites have been accused of many times.
There is a war coming. And future generations will see it as the end of our country.
Was she stupid enough to say this knowing it was being recorded for posterity?
“Why would I do something racist if they were there?”
Of course if they aren’t there, well, that’s a whole different story.
Taken out of context tell her to go talk to the NAACP their the ones that stirred the pot.
“There were White people there”. “and here I was faced with having to help a white person save their land.” “So I didn't do as much as I could have”.
The fact is that the NAACP, Black “fill in the blank” groups, are racist. They exist solely to convince blacks that they are somehow disadvantaged by some outside evil mysterious group and only serve to divide people by color of their skin.
While not as outrageous as some of the groups like “the New Black Panthers” and Rev. Wright's ilk, every time they get together and pull out the old tired “race” card, they play right into their “Masters” plan. The Master of course being the DemonRAT / American Communist Party.
She should have been fired. If not for being a racist, for being another fine example of a government worker that forgot who they are supposed to work for.
“If what she is saying is true, then using a piece of video clipped out of a broader story to make her out a racist is just plain wrong.”
I think the racist part is that she saw color first...she felt bad about black farmers while looking at the white farmer........thats not her job. She is supposedly there to “help” all people...
Cuz whitey be holdin' her down! Who you gonna believe--her or your lyin' eyes and ears?!
