A woman, who has been dubbed 'poolside Karen', has claimed she's not a racist after a video went viral showing her launching into a rant against a Latino family.
In the clip, which was shared to TikTok, Blair Featherman can be seen berating the family, calling them 'trash' and 'low class' for having a pool party around 4 July.
However, the 49-year-old has since denied the accusations that she was being racist against the family and says that the video was 'deceptively edited' make to tell a narrative that 'isn't true'.
"I have been trying to stay silent and not comment about this, but there are things the video doesn’t show," she told the Daily Mail.

"I'm not a racist. It was deceptively edited and put together to tell a narrative that isn't true."
In the clip, she can be seen shouting: "You have a f***ing Mexican party in a pool, trash," before attempting to grab the phone recording her while saying: "you can't do that, you can't just record me."
The clip, which was uploaded by an account called @jadeserie, was filmed by the side of the pool at the Alta Green Mountain apartments in Lakewood, Colorado.
Featherman can be seen telling the group to 'go back down to Denver' as well as claiming that they don't know what Hermes is.

However, she claims that she was provoked after complaining about the group allegedly breaking the rules on how many guests a resident can take to the pool.
Featherman has also admitted that she was wrong for what she said, but alleges the family were calling her 'white b***h and white this and white that'.
"I was already having a bad day, but this was too much," she said, also claiming that she was physically attacked when she tried to grab the phone filming her.
"I couldn't believe what just happened, my heart was racing, and I was so full of adrenaline. I couldn't think straight," she added.

In the clip, Featherman can be seen holding something up, which she has since claimed were the false nails of one of the family members who allegedly attacked her.
"I have heard that people are assuming they're pills that I am holding in my hand, but it's actually her nails that I'm showing her," she said.
Lakewood Police Department had previously confirmed to the New York Post that they did respond to the incident but that no criminal charges were filed.
