Colors
I was in our display window about 30 minutes ago, removing sun-damaged photos, when a crowd of blacks walked by. One gal said, "yo, there's a fucking white girl in there...we would scare the shit out of her if we went in there"...
I looked around and didn't see a white girl fucking...lol... seriously though, she irked me..why would I be scared of them just for coming into the building. Many of my best customers are african-americans and I'm fond of them--they're fond of me. The merchants next door ar A-A's. Wes is one of my dearest friends. I don't know if it's a just a southern thing, but around here they're the first to scream racism if a person of another race even mentions their race, but when they say racist stuff about whites, they feel its their right to do so because of old transgressions...
I rarely get on the racial bandwagon, but today, this bothered me...a lot.
