Sade Perkins, a former Houston mayoral appointee who served on a food insecurity board, has been widely criticized and subsequently fired after making racially charged comments about the victims of the Camp Mystic flooding in Texas, where 27 girls lost their lives. Perkins described the camp as a "white-only conservative Christian camp" and mocked the absence of racial diversity among the victims, noting the lack of a "token Asian" or "token black person." Her remarks, initially posted on TikTok and later deleted, sparked outrage and condemnation, including from her ex-boyfriend, Reverend Colin Bossen, who publicly denounced her comments as insensitive and racist. The controversy has drawn attention to the tragic flooding incident and the racial dynamics highlighted by Perkins's statements.
