Yet, black churches and black charities receive TONS of financial support from the black community. So I don't believe it is an issue of not being able to afford a nicer tip.

And like others have said... it's not like black diners are making it rain for black servers but stiffing white servers.

I just think they don't believe in the system that a server should get most of their income from tips. And I don't say I blame them. However, because I know how the system works, I comply.

You're correct on both counts. The article mentions that income of the patron and race of the server were controlled for in multiple studies
