A video of a white couple entering a home unannounced and questioning the presence of a Black man there is going viral on social media.

The incident took place in Louisville, Kentucky, where a man was renting an Airbnb.


The exchange starts off with the woman asking, "Do you live here?"

"What do you mean do I live here?" he responded.

The man then questioned the couple on why they walked into the home unannounced. She tells him they felt that there was "suspicious" activity going on at the house, as people were coming in and out.

The pair walked in through the home's unlocked front door.


"So you just walked into the house because you saw Black people?" he asked. "You profiled us."

The woman tries to explain that she knows the owner of the home, who is reportedly trying to sell the house.

He then asks the couple how they would feel if a Black man was to walk into their house. "I'd feel scared," the woman responds.

The man explains to the couple that the home was listed on Airbnb and that he'd rented the property. The white man in the video, who appears to be the woman's husband, said the owners had not told them that the house was listed on the home renting site.

"If you saw somebody walk into a house that was empty, you would do the same thing, but you want to pull the race card with us," the husband said, before telling the man to "Stop it with the 'Black man' stuff."
