racism at the barPosted I was hanging out a local bar with some of my white associates a while back. We were meeting up for karaoke . I had never been to this place before. I rode with a friend because i am usually the designated driver. Well i walked in with him and the rest of the gang had not made it yet. Late as usual. Well as we sat at the bar i noticed how peoples eyes kept searching me. I brushed it off and tried to enjoy the band. Well first these two ladies sat next to me. I figured they had to much to drink because they kept giggling. Well one of the ladies reached around me twice. As she went the third time i scooted my stool. She then proceed to say to me." excuse me i hope you don't take this the wrong way since i seem to put my foot in my mouth sometimes but i just wanted to say your skin color is beautiful." I could take this as a compliment right. Well i would have if she didn't get back in her seat look at her friend and historically start laughing. ******Then 2 minutes later this drunk redneck starts talking to my friend saying man thats your girl? He said, no that's my friend. Then he ask, well you ever been with a black chic. He goes yes. Then he proceeds to what its like man. He says the same as being with a white chic. Then he started with this conversation about him having black neighbors and the police had to keep watching the house. He said one day alot of cars was in the yard so the police kick the door in. He started laughing saying to bad they didn't have no dope. He said they were bar b quing. Then he start talking about black people cooking dinner selling it on the side of the dirt roads. ******Everything he was saying was black this black that....Then i noticed the head bartender kept staring at me. Not once did he ask my order. The waitress addressed my friend when she took orders. He had to order a drink for me. At that time I called it a night. Apparently i was offering my money and presence at a place that didn't deserve it. |
