NY Times reporter accuses white women of racism on city sidewalks


I really thought this was going to be another story about a black man getting yelled at for throwing his chicken bones on the sidewalk.

White women can be awful, no doubt

But I don't think black America wants a national conversation about the rudest group of people, do they? Because there is no contest for #1.

The real story here isn't that some dickbag drummed up RACISM out of thin air. THE REAL QUESTION is how in the frick did this get published in the New York Times? The Managing Editor should fire every single person involved in this piece of crap.

What is the NYT doing!? Did they run this by the Democrats first? They're allowing one "victim" group (black people) to attack another "victim" group (women). I would imagine that a lot of white women won't be too happy with this accusation that THEY are racist. By the way, that particular group of people (white women) is the largest demographic in the US. You may not want to turn them against you. If the offending group were white men, then everyone would just say: "Well of course. White men are inherently racist by default."

These idiots such as the reporter are either too arrogant or too stupid to realize what a story like this does. In his own self-aggrandizing world he thinks this story is going to bring about a "necessary change", when in fact, all it's going to do is piss white women off and make someone who isn't racist, defensive.

If you are constantly being accused of something that isn't true, then eventually you are going to say "frick you" and develop a prejudice that was never there to start with.

I like the concept of the "is it racist" column

There is a black dude complaining about not getting chips at a Mexican restaurant, for frick's sake.

Someone write one about getting your car broken into, let's take this up a notch

My favorite frick you to the public that I began seeing in my undergrad days were black kids in the library singing out loud, playing music with no headphones on study floors and leaving behind McDonald's feasts on tables and desks.

I'm going to need StorongSafety's take on this before I can comment. Someone let me know when he weighs in.

Trying to go see Dunkirk this weekend, when Girls Trip opened, was an experience. You have to actively work at not becoming bigoted.

If there is a women in my path I tip my hat and step a side. I am almost 73 years old so I try to follow my southern heritage!

His ability to overcome this great injustice and have a job for the NYT inspires me to do great things in this world!!!

Ok, i Do a lot of sidewalk walking. People walking in groups taking up the entire sidewalk and not moving into single file is not gender or race specific.


I experience this outcome everyday.

One of the best groups I deal with are the inner city school kids. They are usually the ones to say hello and stop doing their preteen shenanigans while walking by.

Could just be your comprehension skills.

Several times a day he is forced to the side by these groups of white women and a couple of times a week they force him into the streets.
