Today in a parking lot a lady drove up next to us, parked her car and proceeded to tell us this long complicated story about being from out of town, her luggage was at the airport, they wouldn't let her write a check for $12. Many holes in her story. Regardless, if we had $12 we would have given it to her. My boyfriend said "I'm sorry, we don't have any cash on hand (which was true)." She hung her head and sighed. He asked "do you need directions to anywhere" She said "Never mind" and told her kids in the back seat "It's because we are black." I told her "that's very rude." Just because we are white doesn't mean we judge by color. I'm sure my black niece would have been surprised to hear that. Through her whole story she kept saying "I'm not a bad black mom." I'm sorry, but teaching your kids that people do not like them because they are black and we are white makes her a bad mom. Her false accusations hurt my feelings and were uncalled for.
