When I shop at some high end stores I have to make a conversation about what I do for a living and once they find out what I do for a living it's pretty much breathing room from there but before I mention what I do for a living All Eyez on Me but at the end of the day it still doesn't feel good I am a black female that can afford anything that I want whenever I want but at the end of the day it doesn't feel good while shopping black.
It should be illegal for retailers to have an arrest quota for their security guards as it encourages racial profiling. Most states make it illegal for their officers to have an arrest quota. Retailers should be subjected to the same laws with their security.
Ya know, when I see a young white teenager dressed in a long trench coat when it's hot out, I don't stop to wonder if he's a serial killer, so I'm not sure whats up with the silly folks who think black men really want anything from them except to be left alone.
People stop judging them for their choices in purchasing...the point is that they were racially profiled!!! Stop speaking as if you know what their financial situations are...Black people are not all poor and on welfare!!! I work hard myself and I have nice things and its my business!!!
Poverty is common in the black community. This and gang activity brings heat on good black folk. I grew up poor as hell, and i'm white. I may not catch as much heat shopping, but i sure do on the road. I've been pulled over more than many blacks...50 times i'd say. When i see blacks complaining about THAT, i shake my head. I had a shoebox full of tickets. They always search my car, always. I went to jail two dozen times easy. Racial profiling, to me, is more about poverty than color. We poor tend to push our luck.
Yeah, right...hes not going to give up a multimillion dollar deal just because a department store racially profiles. That would take dignity and integrity.
The Black Woman spent her $2,300 dollar rebate check on a bag. Wow. The Black Man spent $350.00 on a belt. They both gave the interviews from their apartments. We got to do better as a people. These stores been doing this forever. Your money looks way better in your bank account instead of purchasing an item that will depreciate, from a place that don't want you in there, so you can front for whomever. I'd rather pay my utilities up in advance than buy an item that will eventually be old news.
When only 3% of the population commit more than 50%. of all crime, - it's hard to blame retailers for being prudent ... - There is a solid & logical reason for this so-called " racial profiling " if all child-rapists wore purple clothes, - would you hire such a person to babysit your kids...???
The LV store in vegas by cesars palace is a nightmare. The short little mexican gay supervisor (im Mexican aswell btw) was very rude to me and my friends because we were asking questions about items. When I wanted to purchase a simple luggage tag for my luggage he told me only items can be bought if you own the keepall. Might be true but still he was a dick about it. I had the money and everything. Security was just around the corner aswell.
So design something, open your own store's, so you can stop giving those company's your ( energy power,cash , dollars, bag , ) don't you think it's time , they came to you begging, instead of you, crawling to them ? Think about it ..
Are used to work for Barneys New York many years ago, (The men’s store as well as the co-op), and they are very racist not only with customers but with employees as well and I can prove that.
It's not really racial profiling. It's more like status profiling. This is an elitist store. There customers dress and look a certain way. They never mentioned how the kid was dressed. I'm guessing he was dressing like a normal 19 year old would be dressed. The kid they said was saving his money to buy the belt. So clearly this kid did not dress or look like the average barney's customer. He here is dressed like in hip hop fashion. Definitely would not fit the common barney customer. If this person was white dressed the same I bet they would be just as suspicious. This happens not only at barneys. I rmbr I wore like gym clothes to abercrombie and fitch and nordstrom and I could totally tell they were keeping a close on on meant they kept asking me if I needed any help. I'm not black I'm asian. Next few weeks I came back and I was well dressed and I did not get the same treatment. So its really about how your dress and how you present yourself bc prejudice does exist. Everyone has a little bit of prejudice in them. Walk into a store wearing a expensive well put outfit or a suit and then come back to back in dirty sweats. You will notice how different people will view you and treat you.
Very well said. Theres always more to the story then meets the eye. Typical 19 yr old black kid from nyc especially brooklyn or even hispanic is going to dress street, hip hop, "thug." thats just the style and culture. He probably really wanted the belt but as soon as he walked in the store it was a wrap.
Chan Saet. You think how the most ignorant white people think. It doesn't matter how you dress. If you are not breaking any laws and have the money to buy something, people should leave you alone. You don't have the right to assume that they are a criminal. Calling the police on someone because they wear hip hop clothes is stupid. Telling people they have a stolen credit card because you don't believe they can afford some thing is stupid. This is what us black people go through everyday. I'm black and I dress casual. This stuff has happened to me too.
the7figuremaker “what is black people go through everyday” shut the fuck up. It seems you missed the entire point of the original comment. The point was that it isn’t about race, it’s about class. If you are perceived as being in a lower class of wealth than upper middle class due to your clothes, you might raise suspicion buying things from a high end store. Whether class based discrimination is ok is up to you but it’s not race based.
There are rich people out here who don't always dress like they are rich. You would never know that they have millions in the bank. Everybody don't spend each dollar that comes to their hand.
thats the problem... suing a company... um no go after the person that racially profiled u.. sue them civilly an if they cant pay with there regular pay make them pay by the day in prision.
This is very unfortunate. However, the idea of the girl using the tax rebate to buy that bag is just absolutely pathetic she said she felt demeaned, I would just of felt humiliated and embarrassed to be doing something like that.
Yes, I get that some people want to buy expensive things with their own hard earned money. They worked so hard for. Being racially profiled and accusing black people of stealing going to these high end fashion stores. Even if they have cash and credit cards. Black people need to stop going to these business establishments. That discriminates discriminates against them. Trying to get Rapp Mogul Jayz to pull his fashion out of these business establishments. Failed. Black people need their own businesses and companies in the community to cater to their needs.
Barney's just screwed up all your stuff to put out a line from a rap star you're about to have a whole bunch of black people come in that have money because not all black people are poor and they're going to want to buy his stuff you blew it if he pulls his line you can just wrap up shut your doors and lock them

It's not like ANY corporation is free of idiots.
savagemaestro because if he doesn't want to lose customers then he has to listen and consider their point of view. And since the people in charge of the stores can't put their foot down and stop this stupidity someone else will have to force their hand. if enough people don't do business with them they will either change or go out of business.
