A Black graduate student says she was the target of a white woman's racist tirade that she silently recorded Saturday afternoon in New York City.

Graves, who attends Yale University and lives in New Haven, Connecticut, told NBC News that she was walking to her partner's apartment when she was approached by the woman at about 5:15 p.m. on 47th Street and Third Avenue."I have never experienced something that was that belligerent and blatant," Graves said Monday."My mindset was 'Keep recording and brace yourself in case she gets violent.

"However, the reality is neither of those things causes racism or excuses racism, while they may exacerbate it," she said.NBC News appNBC News reached out to New York police to inquire whether the woman had been identified but did not immediately hear back.

How DARE this homeless PEASANT hurl invective at a dark hued member of the upper class as she hums her way along the city streets tears her elite university! Guards! Arrest this peasant and her entire family! Teach her a lesson!

Many people see her on the streets of NYC. She's homeless & has been for years. I knew her when she lived in Los Angeles in the mid 90's. I believe her name in Jean. I always wondered what happened to her and then saw Kat's video. Heartbreaking to see how far she's fallen.

Pathetic that Ivey Leaguers can’t tell someone is homeless and apparently has a mental condition (like meth user). This is why today’s generation are clueless, outta touch, and misinformed.

Ok..lights....cameras.....and ACTION don't believe all that is shown.

Ppl from the Crime Culture deserve no respect!!

Bitches they be crazy no matter what race?

Drunk on Natty Ice on a Sat afternoon on the streets of NY letting loose with a racial rant. Not to be excused but just part of their street scene.

The person filming this throws the rock & hides the hand. You riot, loot, destroy property, desecrate; senselessly topple historical monuments like Grant's, burn George W., and the U.S. flag, beat and harrass white people... do NOT expect respect. Racism will now get worse.

My Mexican neighbor called my asian one a “chink”, can NBC send a crew?

Third time this has been posted today..at different times.

She looks like a white-skinned witch who doesn't give a flip about much of anything. Martin Buber wrote that there is a difference between things and people. She needs to go to a cave and yell at rock walls that have no feelings until she exhausts herself.

I was in a gas station the other day , and when I came out my granddaughter told me that a black kid behind me was making obscene gestures behind me . I said I didn't feel a thing and I hope he felt a little better . His problem isn't mine .

Somebody needs their thyroid levels checked

Was she or is this another set up to build up anger? That has been done before!

If she could only cling tighter to her Natty Light . I so would have taken her brew .

IDIOTA

Methany McCrackrock

The irony of a student that goes to a University named after a slave trader.

Looks homeless and disturbed to me.

Why do you report this ,but not the violence

Where is the video The media lies

NYC is a very racist and territorial place. It’s definitely not just white people there. It’s everyone.

BLM leaders and progressive extremists are making the world more dangerous for everyone, especially for Black communities. They know nothing of wisdom, only how to prey on desperation to turn justified protest into violent riots.🔥 Just like the SDS of Bernie Sanders.

So she gets a racist rant, boo hoo. Sticks and stones. What about the black police officers that were shot and killed?

sunny WhoopiGoldberg JoyVBehar

But she didn't beat her

Is 'graduate student' relevant here?--Editor

Here's the video:

This is not quite news, is it?

🚨Crisis🚨Actor🚨Alert🚨 No woman that age in NY drink Natty Ice

Thanks 'racism police' make sure to keep us informed everytime time someone says something mean.

obvious mental health issues with this one

Karen is cry next week when she loses her job

Verbal assaulter may have been drunk. No excuse. Track her down. This was pure, unadulterated hate.

Who is this Karen

Thanks to all working news channel working Democrats agenda to spread the hate and divide our country do they can win the election. As a black person, I don't blame her I blame the media.

Behold!!! NBC found the spokesperson for 'all' the white people of new york. She speaks on behalf of everyone of them. She was last seen talking to a brick wall about her imaginary cat who stole her last oxycontin and made her suffer.

So

The Democrat mainstream media will never run a story where a white person is picked on or assaulted by blacks solely based on the color of their skin. Two incidents happened yesterday alone. The NBC Democrat mainstream media needs to stop dividing America!

Breaking: American helps out fellow American against common scumbag thug. 🇺🇸😎 VoteRed 🇺🇸😎

Uh oh!

One in a billion.

Natty ice lmfao

Look at the degenerated person! She can’t even walk properly! Her biological parents must have been cousins

Candace Owens spreads the kind of hate you see in this video

They set a homeless man on fire last night and you're reporting this? Nobody cares

The lady is clearly a drunk

NBC News

One time I was in a Mosque in Amman, Jordan (King Huessin Masjid) and a Jordian accused me of being Jewish. Ranted and raved that I was sent by Israel. Should of recorded it. Makes this lady seem sweet.

Are people really just now figuring out New York is full of old racist people? Go a few blocks over into the hood and the white lady will experience racial slurs. Welcome to America. Where people are stupid and racist. Get used to it

Liberals only now realizing homeless people are mentally ill? Homeless shaming cool now?

Why does this make the news, but not violent people beating up Macys store employees? What narrative are you pushing?

Team Trump.

That Karen had a rough night...

This lady is holding a case of natural ice. Ha ha ha ha ha

O no not another white woman... so scary ... probably havin a mental issue..

Thanks for standing up. Keep filming these people. Exposure works.

OMG she had to endure this person saying offensive words.I pray she has the power to carry on In other news a guy gave me the finger the other day because he thought I cut him off,plot twist he was black It has been reported to police and they are investigating it as a hate crime

When you have a racist president, it empowers all the other snakes to come out of the grass.

White women r becoming as racist as white males.They all need to get a life.

Sad

Come on, you guys, she obviously in the midst of a mental health crisis. Maybe she's really a racist and maybe it's the disease talking when she's self-medicating with alcohol. She needs an assessment and a bed in dual diagnosis.

Sounds about white...

NBC carries this story but not one of the numerous violent attacks by blacks on innocent whites in the past week. I wonder why?

We’re all targets of the Marxist revolution in the guise of BLM

That drunk is in violation of at least 2 misdemeanors, right there on camera. Quick, somebody call the police! . Fuck it! Something is eating her alive, in tiny bites, from the inside out. Since it seems probable she will suffer all her life: Live long in misery, Karen!

She was accosted by White woman’s racist rant.

crisis actor alert!!!! no woman that age in NY drinks natty ice.

Scumbag journalist inflating a person being rude into a hate crime in order to destroy someone's life. I see you have adopted the new rule of capitalizing Black but not capitalizing White. I have a new rule myself. I have replaced journalist with scumbag journalist.

Im really sorry this happened. But you are a Yale student at the peak of privilege and she is very obviously destitute. You are the one in a position of power, have compassion.

you cover this but not black on white racism or attacks.

Blacks assaulting white people for being white is completely ignored by the MSM. The silent majority that is made up of all races are not being fooled.

Remember no cops soon - unless you vote RED in November

Walking in the park, I told a gal her dog looked just like the dog up ahead. She told me 2 mind my own damned biz. When I expressed shock, she told me 2 go back 2 my own country. (I am white, she looks Chinese). I said she needs help. She then said I shud go bk to my nursing home

There is no excuse for such despicable behavior. What a cesspit that woman's brain must be. Sorry to lesrn of your unpleasant experience.

Really NBC? What say you about this? AllLivesMatter

Homeless people say crazy shit , I can’t believe this video is being covered by NBC. Slow news day?

Never trust someone who can get drunk of Natty Ice.

I'm having quite a good laugh about these BLM stories... Shows that especially the one's running around in America are all sissy's carrying on like babies without their dummy's 😂

White, drunk, homeless and mentally ill person says racist shit and that is evidence of systematic racism? 🤦‍♂️

Where’s the video?

TawnyTawnyOne

I dont think it was secretly. Where the positioning of this picture is looks like camera was probably scene and it was probably a phone and with everything ELSE going on that college student deserves to be back in middle school.

that student must have been pretty tall

where is the recording?

Is this jimmykimmel?

Another hoax for 5 minute victimhood fame. BlackPrivilege

Wow. A racist tirade. Sounds terrible. Almost as bad as this...

NYC is a very racist place. It’s not just white people there.

It will be interesting to hear the company she used to work for respond

I dont see anyone around..She should have dropped her.

Karen with a road beer... That's a new marketing strategy

Why do these women always look so weathered?

We love Karen.

If you are going to talk about homeless drunks, here talk about this too: '=

nothing says 'I'm better than you' like clutching a partial case of Natty Ice

Where’s the video?

Ha ha ha ha I love 💕 that thank u white wom good job

Go work Lazzy people .. just looking for opportunities to be rich 💰w/o working ! They all want to be victims

stop dividing us!

You report this but a White guy beat up in a Macy's by a black guy, and filmed, gets no coverage.

I think so should secretly tape black tirades there are a lot of those to. Any the way Im seeing slot of racist black people right now!

accurate headline: 'Another racist white woman in NYC verbally abuses a Black person' are there no journalistic standards similar to medicine's Hippocratic oath and 'First Do No Harm'?

We must teach our children well, because hate is passed on through the generations. And, for four years we have had a racist who name calls, lies and demeans others. We must keep up our fight for morality and equality. BLM!

Over 95% of white people are raised on white supremacist ideologies. Thus their racist ways is a normality for them. “How is that racist?” 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤡

Because this white woman is obviously living the good life. Grow the f**k up Black graduate student.

She put the video up on FB, and Facebook deleted it.

Why is she running around NYC with a busted case of Natty Ice shouting racist epithets. Maybe in addition to canceling her, somebody should get her the mental help she needs.

Natty Light? I mean I’ll drink some bc it’s cheap but it isn’t my first choice. Oh and the racism? Sounds about white.

This you report on but the hundreds of beatings white people take daily by black men you are silent.

Looks intelligent & poised. Wonderful grasp of the English vocabulary. I wonder which trailer park she's from & if her parents were brother& sister or uncle & niece?

Okay you reported it now what?

O please how about all the white citizens being attacked daily that you race baiters dont report on you are the reason we live in a damaged society

No jimmy kümmel story?

one would think this is the best time for these racist dirt bags to go into hiding. Now is not a great time to out yourself as a piece of shit. But hey keep doing it guess, no skin off my back.

Clearly a looney or suffering with substance abuse. You know how many times I’ve heard crazy racist rants on the streets of nyc or on the subways. Never thought, hey I should film this mentally ill person.

She needs a mental health intervention ASAP

Ser humano triste e perturbado. Doente.

She really looks put together

No one cares ... get a life

I hate this. This Stasi like constant telling on people without recourse for them to tell their side of the story. It’s like the fucking Soviet Union.

After seeing what colleges are turning people into, I don’t really appreciate grads, white, black or otherwise....it’s where they read a little Marx and decide they know what’s best for me

Old white women feel special

She’s a racist, drunk clown no doubt. Now show people getting sucker punched and stomped on for being white.

This woman appears to be mentally ill and probably homeless. She needs real help not twitter justice.

Disgraceful!!

This is awful journalism. Where is the video? Have NBC verified it? You’ve posted an easily identifiable pic that could be used to victimise this woman who may be entirely innocent.

There's no video upload on this account. Next

She looks like Donald Trump’s girlfriend: same angry, entitled face.

you know you guys are just increasing the racism right? If someone had a camera on me without my permission I would be very angry and probably say some horrible shit.

What a drunk

U ever gonna show the black on black or black on white crime?

I feel sorry for her family. What an embarrassment.

Karen’s are everywhere

Kathryn Graves probably shouldnt have a camera.

Breaking News - Racism exists. Great get NBC 'News'

Shes just a drunk that hates herself. Most likely not a racist.

Do they have any evidences? Radical left is destroying laws

FAKE NEWS

This women is just an alcoholic on the final stage. I mean even if you're an average alcoholic you don't carry a lot of beers with you on the street like a homeless. Racism and sexism is common when people are drunk. It's not fine but 🤷

Do we have THAT MANY unsupervised mentally ill people who trigger that easily?

Carrying a 15 pack of natural ice lmao I'm sure shes a real winner 🤣 When did Americans become so hateful and disgusting? Wtf is wrong with you people...

White racist bigots cannot stop themselves.

If NBC News is going to post a video of a drunken white lady saying racist things to a young black student, then there's no reason why they cant post a video of a black man beating up defenseless white man.

Really racist coming from a crazy lady lol

This woman looks homeless or may have a mental issue.

That beer box must have been empty because she sounds like she’s having a drunken rank. Advice... if you’re a racist, don’t get drunk and try public discourse. Simply because you can’t hide your hate and darkness.

Truth: Homeless lady rants at privileged college student. Media: Burn some shit down racist blahah racist ballalhhs.

Isn't 'Natural Ice' beer like 'Steel Reserve' ie: The choice of vagrants as it's cheap & high in alcohol content? Don't think this woman has a bougie job she could lose over this video!

What was the racist thing she said?

Have y'all reported on this?

I’m wearing a “go pro” body cam for my own safety and piece of mind.

Bleach bottle blond 341 an open case of nasty lite ... yes I think that's a case of what George Carlin called 'Free floating hostility ' and she wanted to let her feelings be known at the first black person she could find

Find her meds and ship her back to rural Oklahoma

The hatred they have in them is astonishing.

Were that video of the black guy beating the white guy in the store and calling him the n word .... Why y'all advertising selective racism

And my Asian wife was a target of a racist tirade from a black woman, but you don't see us making a big deal and making it national news. We just kept walking and ignored her.

Most Newyorkers are belligerent, racist and rude, nothing new here.

I think the open case of beer is part of it.

Sorry you spent time and money on an education only to have to deal with MAGA. Seems like a fucked up deal in America now really.

If the woman in the video is drinking 'Natural Ice' beer then identifying her isn't going to hurt or punish her at all since anyone with actually anything to lose wouldn't be drinking that beer

Slow news day?!

Literally on the worst beer ever.

Sad 😢

Some people just have mental illness which amplifies the sentiments and hatred they’ve built inside through the years. I do as much as I can to forgive people and just move on. We mustn’t respond to every adverse comment because you can’t put out darkness with darkness.

It’s lib utopia NYC.

Ohh American...........................

They can't help themselves their HATE is just eating away at their souls and they need an outlet.

I want to leave earn more about 'silent' recording

Black-lined populouses as to red-lined neighbourhoods nardotrealtor

We still don’t know who she is?

Look at this woman. She is obviously not all here! G-wiz! We must work on getting rid of this attitude! It's so outdated!

they must be putting something in the water to make all these Karens!!!

Oh, poor thing. What do you expect? Brought it on yourselves. Want to act like an animal, you’ll be treated like one.

The woman may have been mentally ill ... but that does not escuse racism What a low bar MSM

You know, sometimes a crackhead is just a crackhead.

Someone please get Karen a manicure stat...or at least a wet wipe.

Not newsworthy whatsoever

as a long time alcoholic who no longer drinks. she is drinking the cheapest beer she could find. obvious issues.

The racist will be crying on TV after she loses her job and is disowned by her children like all the others, while insisting that she's not racist, her comments were taken out of context and she can't be a racist because she has one black friend. Silly Republicans never learn.

This person is obviously drunk, possibly on something else and psychologically ill. While belligerent, she is not well as we saw her just walk right into the street.

Some loser ex tweaker with a case of natural ice, but somehow thinks shes better because of her race? 😂😂😂😂

Imagine how boring this read would be if it said...' 2 women got into it '

Who breeds that thing

Interesting that you're not reporting on BLM folks attacking homeless white people or beating helpless women for their 'white privilege.'

I'm pretty sure there's another video of this woman early in the lockdown. She was asked about breaking quarantine and she rambles and cusses about having boys to feed or something like that. I think she homeless and or an alcoholic.

Why is the racist wearing Bozo the Clowns boots, though?

NBC used to have a stellar news organization reputation. It's been reduced to this garbage.

We are becoming a Karen nation.

Stop with the races

GADEM KAREN STRIKES AGAIN.........

Lol upstanding citizen coula at least offered a naty
