\n Central Park \u201cKaren\u201d \u201cpulled the pin on the race grenade\u201d when she called the cops on black bird-watcher Christian Cooper, he said in a new interview.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe was going to tap into a deep, deep, dark vein of racism \u2014 of racial bias \u2014 that runs through this country and has done for centuries,\u201d Harvard educated scientist Christian told Gayle King in a \u201cJustice for All\u201d special on CBS News<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe basically pulled the pin on the race grenade and tried to lob it at me,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The white dog walker, whose real name is Amy Cooper, went viral after she was filmed calling the cops, telling the bird watcher she was going to \u201ctell them there\u2019s an African-American man threatening my life.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their confrontation on May 25 sparked mass outrage over racism \u2014 just a day before video emerged of the police-custody death of George Floyd that finally sparked international anti-racism protests around the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know whether she\u2019s a racist or not,\u201d Christian said of Amy, who is no relation. \u201cI don\u2019t know her life. I don\u2019t know how she lives it. That act was unmistakably racist even if she didn\u2019t realize it in the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not sure someone\u2019s life should be defined by 60 seconds of poor judgment,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

Christian said \u201ca little bit of the irony\u201d is that their confrontation initially \u201chad nothing to do with race\u201d as he just wanted her to leash her dog in the park\u2019s Ramble<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was just a conflict between a dog-walker and a birder,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Video of the exchange led to Amy getting called a \u201cKaren,\u201d social media<\/a> shorthand for overreacting white women. Mayor Bill de Blasio called it \u201cracism, plain and simple.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amy \u2014 who later apologized for the incident \u2014 was fired from her job at the investment firm Franklin Templeton, while the Central Park Civic Association also called for her to be banned from the park.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
