A wild-eyed racist white woman who launched an attack on a Latino family for having a party at a swimming pool complex has been named as an art consultant.
Blair Featherman, 49, was recorded lashing out at the family during the racist tirade in Colorado – where she had to be held down down by a man from her own party.
The Lakewood woman called the group ‘trash’ and said they should ‘go back down to Denver’ and berated them for ‘not knowing what Hermes is.’ The ordeal took place at 4.25pm at her apartment complex, where condos cost up to $6,500 a month to rent.
Drawing a crowd of several people, the woman continued to shout and harass the family in the clip, at one point screaming ‘Get the f*** out.’
Featherman used to work at Master’s Gallery Denver, who put out a statement distancing themselves from her, adding that they: ‘Condemn any actions or statements expressing hatred or racism.’
She also ran her own home staging and interior design business, Spatial Flow By Design Inc, where she claimed to be an expert in Feng Shui – the art of creating calmness and harmony through the arrangement of objects in a room.

But those qualities were lacking in Featherman’s rant, which has swept the internet and triggered outrage.
She has been branded a ‘racist Karen’, after the filmed incident – which eventually got physical garnered more than one million views in a matter of hours.
Cops were called to the scene, but it remains unclear if she was arrested.
‘Yes, it’s true,’ the bikini-clad is heard saying in the widely seen clip, visibly peeved by the group’s presence. ‘You have a f*****g Mexican party in a pool.’
At this point, the woman approaches the woman filming, before physically accosting her.
‘You can’t do that. You can’t just record me,’ the woman says, before hitting the phone out of the hands of the person filming.
Before that, an added commentary from the app’s voice feature is heard branding the woman ‘racist Karen,’ while an accompanying caption asked social media users to help identify her.
The footage then jumps to what is presumed to be a few minutes later, with Featherman now being held down by a male member of her own party on one of the pool’s sun loungers.

As this is happening, she continues to reprimand the family over their presence.
Several proceed to surround and argue with the woman – all while she continues to shout while attempting to confront the now angry group.
Amid the commotion, she can still be heard uttering xenophobic statements, such as ‘Get the f**k out’ and ‘go back down to Denver.’
The woman proceeds to yell and shout for nearly the entire duration of the video, which is just under a minute long.
When asked by one of the victims to leave the pool herself, she is heard responding that she lives in Lakewood – the affluent suburb where the complex is set.
At one point she is heard angrily telling the family, who had been having a poolside bash: ‘I live here, nowhere you ever came from, you f****** low-class slime.’
She then screams: ‘You don’t even know what Hermes is!’ To which one of the women in the crowd flashes her scandals saying: ‘I have it on my scandals, b***h.’
Featherman then says: ‘Oh and these? Hold on wait this is good, these?’ She seems to place a pill-sized object in the palm of her hand, while someone in the background says ‘no no no.’
Then a clip shows Featherman squirming on the sun lounger, while a man, believed to be in her entourage, frantically makes a phone call and holds her down by her shoulder.
She continues to point and scream profanities at the group around her.
The video then cuts to a shot of at least three police officers arriving on the scene.
They are seen talking to the woman and the man who had been holding her down, though the clip cuts out before any arrest is made.
‘Yes, it’s true,’ the bikini-clad is heard saying in the widely seen clip, visibly peeved by the group’s presence. ‘You have a f*****g Mexican party in a pool’

Master’s Gallery Denver, Featherman’s former employer, gave a statement
The woman who posted the clip online wrote: ‘According to this karen all mexicans are low class. I hope this video is found by her coworkers, family and friends.
‘Acting like this at family BBQ with children is absolutely disgusting.
‘Its so sad when your racially profiled just because of your skin color. We received so much support from the last video posted.
‘Lets keep comments appropriate so we can continue to spread awareness. Justice will be served when we receive an apology (which we still haven’t).’
Master’s Gallery Denver, Featherman’s former employer, said in a statement: ‘It has come to our attention that a former employee has appeared on social media expressing hateful and offensive statements.
‘Master’s Gallery Denver has not employed this individual for over 5 years and condemns any actions or statements expressing hatred or racism.
‘We represent and support artists and people of all background and will continue to do so.’
As of Friday morning, it remains unclear who called the police.
