( CNN ) The white-haired woman 's face beams as the camera gets closer to her face . She 's sitting on a couch , with a University of Oklahoma shirt draped behind her and a rap song playing in the background . Suddenly , the words spew from her pink-painted lips : `` Ni**** , ni**** , ni**** , ni**** , ni**** , ni**** , ni***** ! '' The release of the Vine video , featuring the house mother of the campus ' Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter , could n't come at a worse time -- just days after video surfaced of frat members singing a racist song . But Beauton Gilbow , the fraternity 's house mother , insists she 's not racist . And two black alumni of the fraternity house agree with the woman they call `` Mom B . '' `` I have been made aware that a video of me that is circulating on social media and in the news , '' Gilbow said in a statement . `` I am heartbroken by the portrayal that I am in some way racist . I have friends of all race and do not tolerate any form of discrimination in my life . The song in the background was the sound of `` All Gold Everything '' from Trinidad James -- a black , Atlanta-based rapper . `` I was singing along to a Trinidad song , but completely understand how the video must appear in the context of the events that occurred this week . '' William Bruce James II , the most recent black member at the fraternity chapter , said no one should use the n-word in any context -- even if it 's just a song . `` That word needs to die , '' James told CNN Tonight . `` With that being said , I do n't believe that Mom B. has hatred in her heart . I was there with her for four years . She took great care of me ... she cared about me , she cares about my family . She had pictures of me , my wife , my children on the entryway table in that house . Mom B means a lot to me . '' James said he has reached to Mom B. after the Oklahoma Daily newspaper posted the clip , which was shot in 2013 . `` I essentially said , 'Hey , do n't ever use that word again , even in a song . But from me , you 're forgiven . ' `` Black OU SAE alumnus : 'They are not my brothers ' Jonathon Davis , the first African-American member of the campus ' SAE chapter , also defended `` Mom B . '' `` I would n't even hesitate for a split second to say that Mom B. is undoubtedly not a racist , '' Davis said . `` I see her as being caught up in the moment . She does like to mix it up socially , and she likes to have fun with the guys and their dates they bring over to the house . And I see this as maybe her getting caught away with the moment . '' OU 's Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter unraveled this week after video showed frat brothers singing about excluding black students and alluding to lynching . `` There will never be a ni**** SAE , '' some chanted . `` You can hang him from a tree , but he can never sign with me . There will never be a ni**** SAE . '' Two students expelled over racist chant . After the fraternity chapter was suspended -- but before her own video was publicized -- Gilbow told CNN affiliate KOCO-TV that she was blindsided by the controversy . `` I feel like the rug has been pulled out from under me , '' she said . `` This has been my life for 15 years . And it 's tough . '' In the end , the SAE chapter was forced to close . Two students have been expelled . And it 's not clear what the next chapter is for Mom B . Opinion : Are frats ' a form of American apartheid ' ? CNN 's Greg Botelho contributed to this report .
