The camp announced Monday that 27 of its campers and counselors died in Friday's floods in the Texas Hill Country. The former member of Houston's food insecurity board referred to the camp as a "whites only enclave" in a widely circulated TikTok video over the weekend.

Former Houston appointee Sade Perkins recently came under fire after claiming that Camp Mystic was "White-only" as the Texas camp deals with catastrophic flooding that killed dozens.

She was appointed to the City’s Food Insecurity Board by former Mayor Sylvester Turner in 2023, and her term expired in January 2025. Mayor John Whitmire has no plans to reappoint her, and the City is taking immediate steps to remove her permanently from the board.

Perkins was not the only individual caught in backlash for their comments about the natural disaster. Dr. Christina Propst, a Houston-based pediatrician, was fired from her job at Blue Fish Pediatrics for allegedly sharing a now-deleted Facebook post that the victims of the floods who backed Trump "got what they voted for."

Camp Mystic flood claims 27 lives as summer camp tragedies continue across America, from deadly flash floods and drownings to the infamous Girl Scout murders and natural disasters.
