Guess that's my derp. I misread the synopsis, thought it said she was on a flight from Detroit to Houston, not Minneapolis. I often fly Delta out of DFW into their hubs.

I believe this story 100%. And like she says maybe it was age discrimination, sex discrimination, racial discrimination or some combination. Whatever happened it was discriminatory.

Sometimes it's about liability. It happened to me in New Orleans.

FWIW -- something tells me there should be quite a lot of witnesses -- you know, small plane and all.

The truth "should" come out eventually.

What can we do about it?! White people are out of control. Black kids are scared to go outside now.

Can you at least try to troll better if you're going to troll at all?

They were skeptical when she told them to start boiling some towels.

Why would an OB-GYN be a big help here? You can be a Doctor of Physics...

Cross noted at the end of her post that the flight attendant eventually came back to her to seek medical advice on the man’s situation. And after it was clear the man was going to be all right, she offered Cross an apology — along with some free Sky Miles. “I kindly refused,” Cross wrote. “This is going higher than her. I don’t want skymiles in exchange for blatant discrimination. Whether this was race, age, gender discrimination, it’s not right. She will not get away with this … and I will still get my skymiles.” Stay tuned for an update.



Ugh. Thats certainly going to help race relations.



Now she wants a red carpet, and free shite out of it. What a humble person.

It's wasn't that they didn't think she was a doctor because she was black, they didn't think she was a doctor because she was a woman. Dumb racist bitch.

Everyone knows that women are nurses and men are doctors.

Race aint got shite to do with it, unless they're native American or Hispanic.

I'm gonna call bullshite. I have been on flights where medical help was requested and never were credentials questioned.

When my mom had her heart attack on a plane, 3 or 4 different people came to help and NO ONE questioned anything. Everyone was grateful there were people willing to help.

Doctor J is black.

But like I said earlier, he's a man. If he was a she then she would be Nurse J and have played in the WNBA, had it existed back then.

I don't see what's so confusing about any of this.
