Black Ga City Council Alderwoman Insulted By White Alderman: 'Ghetto Black B*tch' | Roland Martin

In Savannah, Georgia, a black alderwoman accuses a white city council alderman of calling her "A ghetto black bitch" on video.

Alderman Kurtis Purtee isn't heard on the police bodycam calling Alderwoman Kesha Gibson-Carter a name, but Purtee admitted to calling her that in a phone interview.

Savannah, Georgia, Alderwoman Kesha Gibson-Carter spoke with Roland Martin during Monday's edition of Roland Martin Unfiltered about her heated exchange with Purtee.

Alderman Kurtis Purtee Facebook post:

"Did I tell the Aldersoman at large to shut up? Of course I did. I do not apologize for saying it. I am sick and tired of the nastiest and lies that come out of her mouth. She thinks it's ok to make homophobic remarks and call people names, especially during a meeting. I'm offended and so are the citizens of Savannah. You can't act like you care about LBGTQ people or other groups and make the remarks that you do. If anybody needs to apologize, it's her. I will always have and always will stand up for those who have been oppressed or bullied. It's time to get back to work! God Bless!
