Newly released video appears to show a character at Sesame Place Philadelphia denying an interaction to two young Black girls while then greeting people next to the pair, a gesture the family’s lawyer says showed racist intent and contradicts the theme park’s original claims following the incident.
The new video is the latest development in what the family says was a clear example of racial discrimination against the 6-year-olds. B’Ivory LaMarr, the lawyer for the New York family, had telegraphed the release of the new video on Wednesday, saying it would show that the performer intentionally ignored the girls.
The video shows that after passing the girls, the character playing Rosita reached toward another girl – who LaMarr said was white – to give her what appears to be a hug.
"We believe at this point we need to call it for what it is. And if it’s unacceptable, you need to come out and say it’s unacceptable and this was a racist act," LaMarr said.
