The woman goes on to state: “You’re not American,” to which Powell responded “How am I not American? I was born and raised here.”
The pale-skinned, blonde-haired Karen then claimed to be a Black woman and former slave.
“My family came here on the Mayflower and I was a slave,” she said. When Powell asks about the link to slavery, the woman said “Because I was Black and my last name is Howard.”
The gym staff ultimately calls the police of the woman and as she is being detained she repeatedly screams, ”I can’t breathe!”
