This is the moment an African-American family coming together for a funeral was harassed and told they looked like a "gang meeting"."

DeSean Robinson, 38, was spending the day with her extended family on August 3 in Monroe, Louisiana, USA, after the funeral of her grandfather.

And while the group were gathering outside her uncle's home, a disgruntled neighbour came out to complain that their cars were blocking his driveway.

Shocking video shows the neighbour becoming irritable with the family.

He can be heard branding the gathering as a "gang meeting" and threatening to call the police."

When DeSean's family explained that they were dealing with a family death, he retorted "I don't care about all that crap."

DeSean, a content creator from Dallas, Texas, said: "My family was hurt by what he was saying but we were more focused on our own issues."

"We had just buried our family member and we were in pain, yet we remained kind and in control of our actions in such a hard time."

"His wife was telling him he can speak to people nicely but he stated no he can't."

"We were trying to tell him why we were there but he continually said that he "don't care about that crap"."

"He was even calling my nephew 'trouble' for no apparent reason."

Ultimately, the man's wife was able to get him to retreat to their home and the next day he came to apologise.

DeSean said: "He eventually apologised the next day to my uncle after we had left, but we know he didn't mean it."

"He just hates the world. We saw who he really was."

"It's 2024 and racism still exists."

"I just hope people can see this and understand that even in difficult time you can still control the situation."
