The kid’s backpack brushed her butt. It couldn’t possibly felt as though someone grabbed her butt. Idiot woman.
That feeling you have? That’s called racism. And it’s not funny.
…white people loot a store in the aftermath of the recent hurricane. The NYTcalls it salvaging.
Woman interrogates and then tries to prevent a man from entering his own apartment.
After all of these embarrassing viral videos, one would assume people would start thinking twice before acting on their prejudiced impulses, especially when they know they are being fucking recorded. I seriously don’t understand how idiots like this are capable of functioning, I really don’t.
Yes, indeed! If you think someone groped you, by all means keep quite about it!
Isn’t that what we’re doing these days? Let’s revisit the issue in 2053.
You’re kinda stupid.
I just came across the same story at the New York Times.
Have incidents like this gone up, or are they just being reported more often?
Often it feels like the Presidency of Trump, Hater-in-Chief, has motivated swarms of racists to come out of their ratholes and hate openly, proud that one of their fellow haters now rules the Land.
That’s the whole point of this thread. That much to white America’s surprise incidents like these are very real, ubiquitous, and have always been happening. Blame it on Trump if that makes you feel better. But it is business as usual for many in America.

She has now been fired from her job.
How is she going to claim she felt uncomfortable by this guy’s presence while literally stalking him all the way to his apartment? And how can she claim she did not know whether he belonged in the building when she saw with her own eyes that he possessed the key to get into his apartment? None of this makes sense. She should be fired for being so stupid.

Nope. This same thing happened to me 20 years ago when I had the nerve to stay in an upscale building. Only thing new is the technology.
And did she ask herself how likely it is a prowler would care enough to film the encounter with his camera phone? When he started recording, that should’ve been her cue that maybe, just maybe, dude had more on his mind than breaking and entering.
Vermont’s only black woman in the legislature has been hounded from her job by racists.
This is heartbreaking.
Get Off the Bus.
Racist voter intimidation with an extra helping of dickishness: Forty black senior citizens in Georgia (where else, right?) are ordered off the bus when going to vote.
White woman calls police on a line of black people who stopped a a gas station in the middle of a peaceful protest march to buy drinks
My only melanin is in about a quarter million freckles, so I dunno–but I wonder, maybe the number of these incidents IS going down?
I figure that there have to be some white folks who’d be thrilled to badger black people, but now that these videos are happening, they’re shamed out of doing so. Maybe before this phenomenon of filming the racist assholes, the numbers were far higher than they were today.
I don’t recall seeing incidents like this, but like I said, as neither a perpetrator nor a target of such harassment, I wouldn’t know. I’m assuming the perpetrators aren’t gonna admit it here; but targets of harassment, do you have a sense that these videos are making harassment any rarer?
I know this is clickbait but it is so infuriating.
Here’s the story: a solider goes into a Taco Bell. A nine year old and a 13 year old ask him if he wants to support a church bake sale. Soldier instead buys the kids some tacos. That’s it.
Put that in the hands of the Internet, and you get “(White) Army hero saves the futures of two hooded thugs.”
Give me a fucking break.
Holy shit! That’s just evil.
Glurge is bad enough, but multi-page slideshow glurge should be a capital offense.
