CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- A local West Virginia official said she has been
placed on leave after she made a racist post on Facebook about first lady
Michelle Obama.
Clay County Development Corp. director Pamela Ramsey Taylor made the post
following Republican Donald Trump's election as president, saying: "It will
be refreshing to have a classy, beautiful, dignified First Lady in the White
House. I'm tired of seeing a Ape in heels."
Clay Mayor Beverly Whaling responded: "Just made my day Pam."
Taylor told WCHS-TV on Monday night that she was put on leave.
Clay's town council planned to discuss the issue at a previously scheduled
meeting Tuesday evening.
The post, first reported by WSAZ-TV, has caused a backlash and prompted
calls for Taylor and Mayor Whaling to be fired. The post was shared hundreds
of times on social media before it was deleted. The Facebook pages of
Taylor and Whaling couldn't be found Monday.
The nonprofit Clay County Development Corp. provides services to elderly and
low-income residents in Clay County. It is funded through state and federal
grants and local fees. It is not affiliated with the town of Clay, which is
about 50 miles east of Charleston.
Owens Brown, director of the National Association for the Advancement of
Colored People's West Virginia chapter, is among those calling for the
removal of both women.
"I feel so it's unfortunate that people still have these racist undertones,"
Brown said. "Unfortunately, this is a reality that we are dealing with in
America today. There's no place for these types of attitudes in our state."
African-Americans make up about 4 percent of West Virginia's 1.8 million
residents, according to the U.S. Census.
About 77 percent of Clay County residents supported Trump in the Nov. 8
election. In 2012, President Barack Obama received 31 percent of the county
vote when Republican Mitt Romney easily carried the state.
Last week in Kentucky, Republican Dan Johnson defeated incumbent Democrat
Linda Belcher in Bullitt County in a race for the state House of
Representatives despite a series of Facebook posts that depicted President
Barack Obama and his wife as monkeys. Republican officials, including likely
new House Speaker Jeff Hoover, had called on Johnson to drop out of the
race. But Hoover declared last week that Johnson would be "welcome in our
caucus."
