Texas flooding: City of Houston issues statement on former board member's comments

  • Sade Perkins, a former member of the Houston Food Insecurity Board, made controversial remarks about Camp Mystic, an all-girls Christian camp in Texas, in a TikTok video this weekend.
  • Houston Mayor John Whitmire's office stated that Perkins' comments are "deeply inappropriate" and confirmed she will not be reappointed to the board.
  • At least 82 deaths have been confirmed from the flooding, which has also left at least 10 campers from Camp Mystic missing.
  • Perkins claimed that the media coverage would differ if the missing children were Hispanic, suggesting a racial double standard.
