Yesterday, the nation was shocked by a video that showed members of the University of Oklahoma chapter of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity singing racial slurs and boasting that they would never allow black pledges.
The shocking clip - uploaded to Twitter by an African-American rights group at OU - prompted a swift response from university officials, who promptly ordered the SAE chapter to disband.
Today, a new video has begun making the rounds online, and it reveals that the problems at SAE were far bigger than the ignorant beliefs of a few bigoted frat boys.
That's 79-year-old SAE house mother Beauton Gilbow repeatedly chanting the word "n--ger" while Trinidad James' "All Gold Everything" plays in the background.
The clip was uploaded to Vine in 2013, but just began to circulate widely in the wake of the first SAE video.
SAE members have until tonight to move out of their house on the OU campus, and several members launched a GoFundMe campaign to pay for new housing for Gilbow.
A reporter for the Oklahoma Daily recognized Gilbow from the Vine video and realized that the so-called "racist grandma" was, in fact, a long-standing member of the SAE organization.
Gilbow was interviewed by a local TV station on Monday and stated that she was "in shock" and had never heard any racist remarks during her time living in the SAE house.
