Good drop Onyx...

There is absolutely NO WAY I could just stand there while something like that was going on... I woulda stepped in too.

And then ol' boy talkin' about "the black card", and agreeing with the store clerk. Then gets outside like: "Oh, I felt so bad for her." :hmm: GTFOH

It was cool to see everyone step up for her and leave the store at then end.
 
HEHEHEHEHe...eh...

I really have grown to hate the word "interesting", so I'll say informative...but even that isn't a complete sentiment.

We live in an extremely individualistic society.

Based on our cultural premise, "better them than me", I can understand the reactions of the majority of white people in the experiment.

The painful reality is that, in this individualistic society, we are black, and dominance is wielded by whites.

White american culture, from my experience, seems to teach one to agree with whatever the present status quo is. Which is my understanding of the white guy's duplicitous reaction. At best, he is trying to be accommodating.

I might be slightly bitter, and this last statement may be a reflection of that, but I feel that the mob of people that left in the last shown scenario, may have only left because it seemed like a cool thing to do. After all, they all had plenty of time to react to the act staged for them.


I can say without fear of being naive, that the human reaction should have been to step in. Even with black nationalist political beliefs, center or right, I would have stepped in if a white person was going through that. Even if just to frame the quality of the store I was about to spend money in.

Ultimately, I would say that is the question. As an American Black who has been stopped appropriately, (fun times in childhood...), and other times without reason, my reaction in a pluralistic society seems to naturally be to step in for an American Black woman. But what if it was a white person about to be jumped for just being white? And YOU had the power to stop it....
 
Ya know? I couldn't just stand by either. I would definitely say something to let the clerk know how ignorant she was appearing. I wouldnt get loud-well unless her actions were against me.
Then I would leave the store-they wouldnt get my money.

The answer is simple when someone is being treated unfairly you come to their aid. You then take the person and your money someplace else. :rolleyes:
 
I shared this w/ some people at work. My girl lived in New York and said there are shops really like this!
I cant believe that though...I just cant...:eek:

Yeah, and though i'm from a densely populated city, I just don't get this type of behavior. When me and whoever walk into a boutique, it's like,"Hey, guys!! Would you like to see our latest fashions?"
 
2 weeks ago I was driving into work, same route I've been taking for 8yrs and the same thing happened that has happened numerous times. Some dude decide to cut me off in the left lane, so I went in the far right lane which is always open. So now this fuk saw me in the right lane and decide he gonna speed up to cut me off again cause up ahead the right lane closes and merges into a 3 lanes instead of 4. His shit was too slow though so I got a head of him and now I'm chilling in the left lane. He tries to go all the way to the right to go around the traffic and get ahead of me but there was too much traffic. this dud pulls up next to me and starts mean mugging me. He was a white dude dressed like one of those people who owns or host a night club (button downshirt with the huge collar and a jacket). After a minute he was able to squeeze infront of a truck about 2 cars ahead of me. No biggie for me I could've cared less I was chillin in traffic. Dude gets off at an exit and I see him going really slow to the point where he almost stopped on the ramp. Ilooked over and dude was holding up a sign that says N I G G E R.

Dang. (Aside from the black couple) It looks like you can only depend on Brits to step up and defend you in a situation like that...

Interesting vid. Thanks.
 
I would've stepped in and taken it further to management.

The security guard would've been introduced to my right fist if he came to me like that.

Much of what we see happening today has to do with the white majority seeing the end approaching and they can't stand it. Imagine these white elitist now being called minorities. Bank on them creating a new term for themselves or eliminating the term majority. I'm taking bets of this one.

"The right" (whatever that is supposed to mean) Republicans have gone out of their way to discredit Obama even at the expense of Joe Wilson's political future shouting "You Lie" during the president's speech. We have seen the emergence of Palin still considered a front runner, the birthers, so-called conservative white talk radio spewing pure hate (these are conservatives? :dunno:) topped off with more racist violent acts by the police.

The haves can't stand the thought of not having or others having. So they do ignorant shit like that driver. They're vocal behind on talk radio and on the internet shielded by the cloak of anonymity provided by technology. But their actions are cowardly. Its nothing more than a feeble attempt of bravado, a show of supremacy by intimidation, its about all they have left.
 
Most of the people who stepped in were NON-NY'ers ...

You have to wonder, how much of that comes from New Yorkers being jaded, or how much comes from them believing the stereotype.

Personally, I don't know if I would have stepped in, but I definitely would have walked out ... I don't support stores that blatantly show disrespect to the consumers...

Cleo, that video contained blatant racism yet you saw how little concern whites have if the victim isn't white. The video reflected what is wrong with America today.

Having lived in New Jersey most of my life and worked in NYC a large majority of it, I can tell you New Yorker's especially those in the Soho area are just as they appeared.

I would've taken my money out that door too.
 
My baby is supposed to taking me to NYC to see the ball drop this year-I guess I am going to have to visit this area and see whats up in this "soho" area....And take alot of $$$$
 
Can I get a transcript? My speakers busted and I can't make out what's going on in the voice overs and when they turn their head away.

Not as high as anybody thinks...lol...eh, I still got the skills to relocate, though...hmmm...a new life. Hmmm....when you wake up one morning, as me...


All things seems possible...

wait, your from Jersey?? **daps**

But yes, this ish is blatant in Jersey ... It's wrong in the world ... but I feel they could substitute that black person for an Indian/Middle Eastern and get similar reactions ...
