She was far from surprised. We talk about that type of stuff all of the time. She's not the type of person who's oblivious to the fact that racism still exists. She has experienced some level of racism before but never to that extent. You're kind of caught off guard when you're put in a situation that extreme out of the blue. That whole situation was extreme and unnecessary.

This happened in Mesquite, Tx. Mesquite is a suburb of Dallas. There are some very rural parts of Mesquite where I wouldn't be surprised if something like this happened, but this right in the heart of Mesquite, in a shopping center that has a variety of stores that appeal to a mix of everyone.
Just to give you an idea of what the area, the shopping center has a Citi Trends in it....
I'm not saying that to be funny bcus I buy my daughter belts and hats out of there all of the time, but all the Citi Trends that I have seen are in areas where a lot of minorities shop. Even if this would have happened in a predominately white area, I would be just as outraged. |
Oh I know where you are talking about.
I went to highschool in Garland.
Sorry again.
