Veronica Culbertson, CEO and founder of Hispanic Business Professionals, is an insufferable racist and does not represent the Hispanic community of Southwest Florida. Thus, we demand her resignation.

Culbertson’s recent Facebook posts reflect her hateful stance on black injustice and peaceful, first-amendment protected peaceful protest.

"If someone doesn't stand up to these animals, it will just get worse," Culbertson wrote. "Just do what you have to do. If it means shooting them, so be it! I really don't care anymore. And don't waste our time trying to defend these beasts."

Culbertson has a long history of racism, fraudulent tactics, and questionable morals. After being ejected from her position as the President of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce for alleged fraud, she founded the Hispanic Business Professionals in hopes to clear her name. Once again, she has made egregious comments about the black community and peaceful protestors that simply does not fall within the scope of a reasonable person.

For years, the Southwest Florida region has suffered from a extremely high rate of racist micro-aggression, that has directly affected the lives of many residents. Culbertson is one of many who have directly fueled this flame. It is imperative she is de-platformed.

We urge the community to stand in solidarity against racism and demand her immediate removal as a representative of our community. This is our community.
