The reality of racial relations in America: Personal story from today

Went to smoothie king today in One Shell Square
In front of me in line was a black male. You wont believe what happened next, scroll down to find out....
When I reached for my wallet, he approached me and said, “Nah man. I got this. Put his smoothie on me.”
After he paid for my smoothie, we talked for a while. His name was Tracy and has been in the air guard for 25 years. Come to find out, him and his family lives in river ridge right next to me. We talked about family and possibly catching up later
Crazy thing is, there are people that think my story is an outlier. I would say my story is 99% of racial relations in this country. Don’t let the crap on the media make one think its reality. Anyway, if someone wants to steal my story and use for facebook to get the likes go ahead.

Wow man, your one interaction with a black guy on a random Monday morning definitely proves there is no other racism in the rest of the country.
