You can't escape your past — especially not if it's racist.
A spokeswoman for West Virginia's attorney general has been fired after an overtly racist YouTube video shows her reciting well-known white supremacist slogans.
Carrie Bowe, who started working as an assistant communications director under Republican Attorney General Patrick Morrissey in 2015, was fired only hours after the Charleston Gazette-Mail published an article about the outrageous video Thursday.

In the shocking video called "THE 'Stop White Genocide' Video," Bowe repeatedly states, "anti-racist is a code word for anti-white," a well-known phrase coined by notorious South Carolina white supremacist Bob Whitaker.

"Everybody says the final solution to this race problem is for every white country, and only white countries, to assimilate, i.e., intermarry with all those non-whites," Bowe says in the video before an unidentified woman chimes in, "How long would it take anyone to realize, I'm not talking (about) a race problem, I'm talking about the final solution to the black problem?"
The "final solution" was a term coined by the Nazis in their efforts to exterminate Jews across Europe in the 1930s and 1940s.
Bowe attempted to save some face by penning multiple tone-deaf apologies claiming she never had "intent" to harm anyone with her unambiguously racist words.
"Unfortunately, I did not view the finished edit — my understanding of the project was not the reality of the completed product or the malice intensions of its creators," Bowe wrote in a Facebook post Tuesday.
In another cringe worthy mea culpa sent to West Virginia Public Broadcasting, Bowe wrote that she's "embarrassed and heartbroken" before going off on a rambling rant about how she supposedly didn't know the person who made the video and only tried to prompt an "authentic dialog" on race.
"Growing up, you could not question why some races could talk or behave a certain way and it was seen as ok, whereby if the behavior was repeated by a white person, it was automatically racist," Bowe wrote. "My personal intent was to bring this forward and have some authentic dialogue."
If that's true, then an open dialogue means spewing well-documented racist and segregationist catch phrases.
"If I tell you the ongoing truth about genocide against my race, the white race, liberals and 'respectable conservatives' agree that I'm a Nazi that wants to kill six million Jews," Bowe says in the video. "Throughout elementary school, junior high, high school and college, I was told that my race, the white race, was the cause of all the world's problems. Now, many of you have jobs where minorities say things that would get you as a white person instantly fired."
The shocking YouTube video, first uploaded in Dec. 2012 by someone with the screen name "Johnny Mantraseed," claims in its description that it has been banned in 18 countries and has more than 260,000 views.
Bowe pledged in a Facebook post that she's "working with all of (her) power to remove the content," which has been picked up by a YouTube channel called "European American Awakening."
Neither Bowe nor the West Virginia attorney general's office returned requests for comment.
