A well-known Black Lives Matter activist allegedly ruined a fellow University of Virginia student’s reputation, accusing her of referring to George Floyd protesters as “speed bumps” and threatening to run them over — only to later admit she may have “misheard” the offending comments, according to a report.

UVA student Zyahna Bryant, then 19, was already a high-profile activist when she encountered fellow student Morgan Bettinger at the July 2020 protest.

What happened next sparked a social media hate campaign in which Bettinger was denounced as a “Nazi;” school investigations; and a bid by Bryant to have Bettinger expelled, according to the outlet Reason Magazine.

Bettinger, the daughter of a police officer, pulled up near a local George Floyd demonstration and found the street blocked by protesters.

A truck driver had parked his vehicle to protect the demonstrators, prompting Bettinger to at one point tell him, “It’s a good thing that you are here, because otherwise, these people would have been speed bumps,” Reason magazine reported.

Bettinger said she meant no harm in the comment.  READ MORE AT BLM activist ruined white University of Virginia student’s rep over ‘misheard’ remark: report (msn.com)
