Victim Of Racist Stripper Rant Speaks
Meet Narvell Benning, the man behind the camera of the racist stripper rant that went viral earlier this week. According to an interview on NewsOne, Narvell was on his way to work when he stopped by a Dollar General in Cheektowaga to purchase some deodorant. When he went to leave the store, there were two children in front of his car. He startled them by starting his car and their mother, Janelle Ambrosia, lost it.
“So she comes walking down, saying, ‘You ignorant f*cking N*gger.’ And I said, What did you say? She said, ‘You ignorant f*cking N*gger. I said, Wow, I can’t believe you said this,” Benning told NewsOne.
He immediately grabbed his phone and began recording. “Honestly, a lot of this stuff is swept under the rug, and it’s rare that you find somebody being as belligerent as she is and forcefully angry toward an individual of another race on tape,” he said. “With all of this stuff that’s going on, the world needs to know that this is happening in Cheektowaga, in Buffalo, New York. It’s happening here. It’s happening to an individual who promotes positive stuff, so if you’re going to say it to me, say it on camera. And she definitely didn’t have a problem doing that.”
Janelle also made some claims of her own. In an interview with WBLK’s Big Rob, she said:
“I am ashamed and embarrassed by my behavior the other day, especially in front of my children,” she said. “It’s not who I am and what I truly believe in. I have been under my doctor’s care for mental health issues and was in the process of changing my medication,” Ambrosia said. “And I am not using that as an excuse but to let people further understand my frame of mind at the time. I am deeply sorry for my offensive behavior and the ignorant statements I made.”
