Jamaican Owner of Vacation Rental Company Says No More Nigger American Guests

The Jamaican owner of the Rustic Mountain Living rental company 
shocked social media by saying she wouldn’t allow any more short-
term stays. The reason? She’s fed up with the alleged 
misbehavior of Black American guests.

In a TikTok video, “The Barefoot Mountain Lady,” said she 
doesn’t believe all Black Americans are ill-mannered, but most 
of the ones she hosted were entitled, unappreciative and 
generally disrespectful in her presence.

She said she only ever had two mannerly Black American guests.

The most eyebrow-raising statement was toward the end. The owner 
claimed Black Americans are spoiled and expect the same “free 
sh*t” in Jamaica they supposedly get at home.

In the video, the woman does errands on her grounds, wades in 
the sea, and seems completely unbothered.

People Had Heated Opinions
Unsurprisingly, the woman’s announcement sparked a firestorm of 
criticism.

People accused her of perpetuating dangerous, offensive 
stereotypes about Black Americans.

Others questioned the wisdom of making such a declaration on a 
public platform seemingly without a second thought. They also 
wondered how she can work in the hospitality industry and be so 
inhospitable.

On Twitter, one user said the owner was parroting white 
supremacist talking points about Black Americans. But to them, 
it was more comical than offensive.

Some asked for clarification on the freebies point. “I’d like to 
receive my free things, please!” wrote one woman. “Is there a 
newsletter?”

After one potential guest criticized the negative energy, The 
Barefoot Mountain Lady said, “You don’t have to come here.”

Another user gave the owner advice in the form of a Jamaican 
proverb: “Anno everything good fi eat, good fi talk,” meaning 
“some things are better left unsaid.”

The Owner Is Completely Unfazed and Won’t Back Down
The Barefoot Island Lady literally laughed at the blowback in 
yet a third video.

“I’m not sorry,” she said. “You want to unfollow me? Block me? I 
don’t care.”
