Details on DaMichael Jenkins’ Viral Racial Profiling Encounter
Shade room posted a video DaMichael Jenkins shared showing a woman walking to his house at night with her two children. When Jenkins pulled into his driveway, she rang the doorbell and began questioning him, asking if he lived there. When Jenkins replied, “Correct,” she shot back, “I don’t believe that.” She then ran from Jenkins’ property, screaming and calling for help, claiming he was chasing her.
Jenkins’ wife walked outside, asked what happened and the woman said who was chasing her. The woman then returned and Jenkins’ wife explained that her husband lived there. Jenkins’ wife shared her confusion and mentioned someone screaming outside.
According to the video, the woman was walking on the street with her two children when Jenkins’ silver truck slowly approached. Jenkins explained that he was driving slowly because he was looking at another neighbor’s Christmas lights. The woman expressed her fear: “From my point of view, you must agree – to be alone with my two children. I saw a car coming and it scared me.” She eventually apologized after Jenkins criticized her behavior.
Social media has weight
The roommates lit up Dark Room commentary via video by DaMichael Jenkins. Many agreed that the woman’s behavior was uncalled for and admitted they would not have remained calm in such a situation.
