Today I was at Mcdonalds returning a video at a kiosk inside. A couple black men in nice suits left soon after I arrived.
Next a man approached me. "I don't know how they do it."
"Do what?" I asked
"I don't know how those coloreds have such fancy suits and drive nice cars when they obviously don't have jobs." The old white guy in a cowboy hat said.
My mouth dropped. I was blown away. Did not just a Black man become President?
I said "Well black men earn a living just as well as white men."
"You don't say." He said "I guess thats a good way to look at it, I guess." The old man said kind of sarcastically.
"It's the right way to look at it!" I said. I was fuming and before he could say anything else, I left. I was upset. How does this still happen? What year is this? I have never had something like this happen to me. I am sure this is not usual for Wichita but it was hard for me.
