The cheerleading coach at a multicultural high school in Massachusetts was seen raising her fist and chanting "white power."

Stephanie Cuevas, the cheerleading coach at Lynn English, allegedly posted a video on Snapchat that shows her smiling while raising her fist aloft and saying, "white power." The video was seen by former Lynn Chargers youth football coach Jarod Dennis, who worked with Cuevas in her role as league secretary and board member.

According to New England Cable News, the video eventually migrated to Facebook, where it sparked a spirited debate between onlookers and those who have a direct connection with the Lynn English program. Cuevas, a white woman who is married to a Hispanic man, eventually responded in the comments:

Astrophysicist says aliens could be hiding behind repositioned stars

Astrophysicist Dan Hooper thinks we’ll eventually have to wrangle the stars in our night sky, like wayward cattle straying from the herd, in order to keep the lights on. This is because the universe is constantly expanding and pulling stars with it. If he’s right, his logic would apply to all intelligent life in the universe — and could help us find aliens.

Early in the video one of the supposed Trump supporters on a golf cars shouts “ white power ” with his fist raised at protesters. As a protester chants “racist” repeatedly at the duo, the man responds by saying “ white power ” and raises his fist . The rest of the video shows continued tense verbal

Turning Point USA Las Vegas chapter president Riley Grisar yells white power on camera. He's also shown doing the Alt-Right 'OK' symbol. Grisar was later fired by the organization. Lily Saxton also yells, ' White Power ! F**k the n*****s' in video .

"I was making fun of myself in the video because that's my personality! And for the record, I'm white power, black power, Mexican power, and human race power period."

Both the Lynn Chargers youth program and Lynn English have launched investigations of the video and the coach's behavior, with both acknowledging the sentiment supported in Cuevas' video is wholly inappropriate.

Whether that is enough to precipitate Cuevas' ouster remains to be seen.
