A ‘Pool side Karen’: This Hampton Inn employee is fired after calling cops on a black woman and her two children who had been staying at the hotel and were enjoying some time out at the pool.     

Hampton Inn employee in North Carolina has been fired from her job after she called police on a black woman and her two children who had been staying at the hotel and were enjoying some time out at the pool.
The woman’s termination came after video of her confrontation with the family – filmed by Anita Williams-Wright – went viral over the weekend.
The nearly-10 minute video shows the mother and her two children out at the hotel’s pool in Williamston, North Carolina.
Throughout the duration of the video, Williams-Wright shares that she had been on the phone with her mother while her children swam, when the employee came and asked her if she had a room.
She then called the police on the family.

Williams-Wright explains to two officers from the Williamston Police Department that the employee is discriminating against her, noting that the policemen were ‘harassing’ her because they didn’t even come to ask her what happened.
When they ask her to prove that she is a guest, Williams-Wright flashes her room key and suggests going to show that the key works.
But once the officers ask for the mother’s name, she refuses promptly.
‘I have a room here,’ she declares. ‘I don’t need to give my name. I didn’t break the law. I know the law.’

Williams-Wright then explains that the employee motive for asking the mom and her kids why they were at the pool: ‘She said to me, “Oh, because it’s always people like you using the pool unauthorized,” the noticeably irate hotel guest said.
Adding: ‘Who is people like me?’
She then turns her critique to the officers, who she said never asked her ‘a single word’ besides if she had a room at the hotel.
Williams-Wright tells one of the officers that she plans to call internal affairs on him, which prompts the policeman to begin taunting her and tells her to call the police chief.
‘If I receive a call I am going to handle it how I see fit,’ the officer boasts.
When the mother calls the officer ‘racist,’ he quickly dismisses the notion.
‘Your actions do not prove that,’ the mother asserts. ‘You can say whatever you want out your mouth but your actions don’t prove what you just said out your mouth.’
Williams-Wright tells the officers that they are ‘degrading’ her in front of her kids.
She makes her way to her car before heading back inside the hotel with her children.
But before she makes her way inside, the employee tries to declare that her manager told her that Williams-Wright had to share her information.
The mother goes into the hotel and refuses to speak to the employee, telling the woman that her ‘kids are already stressed out.’

Williams-Wright asserts that this proves the employee was actually around when they were in the hotel earlier, noting that the woman had been smoking a cigarette at the time.
At this point refuses to speak further with the employee, telling the woman that her ‘kids are already stressed out,’  and she goes into the hotel.
