It was said out loud at a town council in Alabama.

Do we have a house NIGGER in here?

In the city of Tarrant, Alabama, a councilman said the slur in front of the Black mayor in an attempt to undermine his leadership. Wayman Newton had to shrug off the slur made by Republican Karen Bryant, an old cracker who had a longtime seat on the city committee.

The white Tarrant city councilmen, used the racial epithet during a council meeting on Monday.

“Do we have a house NIGGER in here?” Bryant asked during the recorded council meeting. “Do we? Do we?”

In an interview with WVTM 13, Bryant said he repeated what Mayor Wayman Newton had called a fellow council member, Veronica Freeman, in executive session.

"[The mayor] doesn't need to use that term in front of everybody and I thought the city ought to know the terminology the mayor uses and I didn't want him to get away with it," Bryant said. 

Mayor Wayman Newton didn't immediately reply to a USA TODAY request for comment. 

In the video, attendees gasped after hearing the remark.

"We need to stop the racial slurs that the mayor makes and he's always picking on Veronica Freeman," Bryant told WVTM 13. " The city needs to know what kind of mayor and what kind of vocabulary he has."

In a statement viewed by AL.com, Newton said, "the video speaks for itself.”

Bryant is facing calls for his resignation after using the racial slur. 

“We were astonished. No one left, because we were actually very very in shock as to what he had said,” Tarrant resident Waynette Bonham told CBS 42.

Bonham said even if Bryant was repeating what he heard, he should not have used it.

“He should resign because he was way too comfortable standing up and using that word in front of a group of people of color,” Bonham told the station.

The Alabama Republican Party Chairman Karen Wahl told AL.com Bryant's behavior was unacceptable. 

"Such language is completely unacceptable in any setting, and even more concerning coming from an elected official,” Wahl said in a statement. 

The Alabama Democratic Party urged Bryant to resign and called him unfit to serve. 

“Alabama still has a long way to go when it comes to race, but cozying up to the KKK and using the N word should make you unfit to serve,” Wade Perry, the party’s executive director, said in a statement to AL.com. 

Bryant said the mayor used the slur in a derogatory way, but it was OK for him to say because he was repeating it. 

When asked by reporters if he would resign, Bryant said "absolutely not."

"I may even consider running for mayor next time,” Bryant said according to CBS 42.

Wayman Newton, the mayor of Tarrant, Alabama was called a racial slur.

Remind me why does the Republican Party claims to be the party of civil rights when they're literally trying to deny transgender children the right to play sports according to their gender?

Remind me why does the Republican Party think that opposing the John Lewis Voting Rights Bill and the For The People's Act is a token of their commitment towards voting and civil rights?

Remind me why does the Republican Party want to be the party that supports freedom of speech but yet want companies and people to be banned or punished for protesting injustices committed by Israel, systematic racism in the United States and whitewashing the infamous insurrection of 2021?

Remind me why does the Republican Party wants to delay President Joe Biden's agenda?

Is it because they believe Americans will forget about how a pandemic killed over 645,000 Americans? 

Or is it because the Republicans want to keep us distract with the "culture war" issues that propel the insurrection? 

I don't know but I can tell you that people of color should avoid voting for Republicans for the foreseeable future. The Republican Party and their policies are not helpful to anyone other than the powerful and incredibly ignorant.
