A former appointee to a Houston city board is facing criticism for alleging that a Texas summer camp affected by flooding is “White-only, conservative [and] Christian.”

Sade Perkins, who previously served on the Houston Food Insecurity Board, made these unverified statements about Camp Mystic in Hunt, Texas, in a TikTok video over the weekend.

The office of Houston Mayor John Whitmire confirmed to Fox News Digital that Perkins shared the video. She had been appointed by former Mayor Sylvester Turner in 2023, with her term set to end in January 2025.

In her video, Perkins began by predicting that she was “probably gonna get canceled for this.”

“Meanwhile, they are deporting your family members. Meanwhile, they’re setting up concentration camps and prisons for your family members. And I need you all to keep that in mind before you all get out there and put on your rain boots and go find these little girls.”

Speaking to Fox News, Whitmire’s office said that Perkins would not be reappointed to the board, and called her comments “deeply inappropriate.”

“The comments shared on social media are deeply inappropriate and have no place in a decent society, especially as families grieve the confirmed deaths and the ongoing search for the missing,” the statement from the mayor’s office read. 

“Mayor John Whitmire will not reappoint her and is taking immediate steps to remove her permanently from the board.”

At least 80 deaths have been confirmed from the catastrophic flood as of Sunday, a large number being children. At least 10 campers from Camp Mystic are still missing.
