Diamond Green’s caption strongly criticized the negative comments that people made on the video.

According to her, some individuals reacted by saying:

She don’t need to be in the front or upset because she white” and even asked “ughhh why is she there.

She highlighted that these remarks came from Black commenters, which she found deeply troubling and a double standard.

Drawing from her experience as a former Walkertown cheer coach, Antwonette emphasized that talent should speak for itself, regardless of race.

She also reminded readers of the pride the school once carried when its cheerleaders gained recognition.

In the original post, people reacted strongly to Antwonette’s post, sharing their own points of view.

Some highlighted their support, saying:

She definitely ate! And absolutely deserved to be lead

Absolutely well said it’s crazy when you realize who the real racists actually are these days.
