[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Today I was in Sephora browsing. I had a bunch of stuff in my hands and I had a handbag. A woman said to me “excuse me, do you have this in ____ color”. I looked up, realized she was talking to me and said “Sorry, I don’t work here”. She replied, “you don’t have to rude, can you just point me in the direction of someone who does work here?” I told her that I haven’t seen anyone who isn’t already helping someone and then I walked away. I’m not exactly sure why/how I was rude but I’m also on the spectrum and have issues with understanding social cues at times. Advice?[/quote] Op are you brown? I’m AA when people do this to me I tell them they are being racist . [/quote] Pray tell how is that racist. [/quote] It’s a fairly common experience for people with brown skin to be perceived as service employees, no matter the context. If you don’t have brown skin it’s probably just an invisible phenomenon to you. [/quote]
