Message transcript and full story here: https://www.everipedia.com/tami-barker-airbnb-host/ https://www.everipedia.com/tami-barker-airbnb-host/ I agree with OP. The woman was stupid enough to use racist remarks but the reasons she cancelled the reservation was definitely not racist.

So you think this person is racist, but that they don't act like it? You're assuming that they wouldn't have treated a white person behaving the same way differently, even though you KNOW this person is very easily triggered into racist tirades? While acting as an AirBnB host? I just don't see how you can look and that and think "yeah, they probably treat all their guests equally regardless of race. I'm sure she's very nice to OTHER, better behaving Asian law students."

  >So you think this person is racist, but that they don't act like it? No, I think this person is not racist, but acted like one in the heat of the argument. >You're assuming that they wouldn't have treated a white person behaving the same way differently, even though you KNOW this person is very easily triggered into racist tirades? If I understood this correctly, I don't see how that follows. >I'm sure she's very nice to OTHER, better behaving Asian law students She was nice for most of the conversation that is available until the guest kept adding dogs and people to the arrangement even though the host said they can't allow dogs. Having watched the video, I am pretty sure the guest specifically tried to get a reaction that she could use and was successfully able to do so. Some of the conversation is missing and I hope the host makes it public to make matters clear.

That link says the host agreed to the extra people etc., leaving only racism and forgetfulness as reasons for welching on the agreement.

  It is missing some messages right before the racist remarks.

    OK and where are those?
    - anotherbrownguy 9y ago
      They were not published by the guest, which suggests some ill intent on her part.

  The link cited is to a wiki site, meaning anybody can add information to it. Although specifically that site, Everipedia.com, has a pretty good reputation for being unbiased similar to Wikipedia, I'm just trying to point out that it's still a wiki site. Anyone, including you or me, could edit that page and for sensitive topics such as racism, we should probably take things coming from places like Everipedia, Wikipedia etc with a grain of salt.

That site is a wiki site, similar to Wikipedia, meaning anyone can propose an edit. Although Everipedia has a pretty good reputation for being really reliable, I'd still analyze information about things like racism/sexual harassment etc with a critical eye.
