This happened on TAM airlines.

A 50-something year old white woman arrived at her seat and saw that the passenger next to her was a black man. Visibly furious, she called the air hostess.

"What's the problem, ma?" the hostess asked her
"Can't you see?" the lady said - "I was given a seat next to a black man. I can't seat here next to him. You have to change my seat"

- "Please, calm down, ma" - said the hostess
"Unfortunately, all the seats are occupied, but I'm still going to check if we have any."

The hostess left and returned some minutes later.

"Madam, as I told you, there isn't any empty seat in this class- economy class.
But I spoke to the captain and he confirmed that there isn't any empty seats in the economy class. We only have seats in the first class."

And before the woman said anything, the hostess continued

"Look, it is unusual for our company to allow a passenger from the economy class change to the first class.
However, given the circumstances, the commandant thinks that it would be a scandal to make a passenger travel sat next to an unpleasant person."

And turning to the black man, the hostess said:

"Which means, Sir, if you would be so nice to pack your handbag, we have reserved you a seat in the first class..."

And all the passengers nearby, who were shocked to see the scene started applauding, some standing on their feet."

"LIKE" AND "SHARE" IF YOU ARE AGAINST RACISM.

Problem is, those stories are the bane of the internet. I've seen similar legends get loose at work and bring the freakin' mail servers to their proverbial knees. They clutter inboxes. The only good thing about it was that it just said "post to your Facebook wall", so it helps limit the damage.

Basically all the world's evils are caused by such things.... so if we stamp them out, we'll have Paradise(tm)!

Finally found out! It was L.A. journalist Harry Carr.

Apologies, dear mods, for posting on a dead thread, but I've been hunting for this attribution for ages.

Off course there are many racist black people to and I do not think it is any better if a black person is racist than if a white person is, but this story, whatever it is true or not is not about white people being evil, it is about racism being evil and judging someone just for the color of their skin as someone you just can not sit next to, it would have been as bad if it was a black man acting like this towards a white woman.

I wish you well

Unfortunately, you can't legislate morality but you can stop institutional racism (Apartheid, for example).

So, I suggest we start with Affirmative Action.

Peace and comfort,

Off course we can not legislate away racism, that would be wrong in either case, if someone want to be racist they have a right to feel that way, I may not agree with them but it is their right to think and feel what they want. What one can do is try to spread a positive message and try to speak up against racism when it occurs for just like the racists and others who want to discriminate against others for sexual orientation, color of their skin, choice of religion and so on have the right to their opinion and a right to voice it, we who are against such discrimination have a right to voice our opinions on the matter as well. So speaking up against racism is great but trying to legislate against such opinions, no that I do not agree with.

I wish you well

I rather suspect that the highest frequency of racists is among people that do not belong to the population of Western Europeans of Christian descend. They are racists because they are animals.

I love this, and the first time I saw it, I actually thought it was bs, however it is a true story, which makes it even better.

Judging some one based on the color of their skin is just asinine.

Admittedly, I am not perfect, and while I do not have anything against people who are a different race than I, I do have a major problem with people who have green, purple, pink, neon blue, blue, and any other hair color that is not naturally occurring.

And "perky" women, I mean come on, that bright happy happy joy joy attitude should be illegal...

And people with abnormally large ears, I mean Prince Charles should have had reconstructive ear surgery when he was a new born.

Then there are people with abnormally large nostrils, the are taking more than their fair share of air.

And people with ONE eyebrow, you know, the unibrow that is over both eyes and the bridge of the nose....

And women with extra long finger nails, you know they secretly desire to drive them into your chest and rip your heart out...

And those deformed people who's waist is below their hips....

Something similar appeared on a "news" site, which seemed reliable, but isnt evidently.

That is a good question, K.

I do admit I have met racists of all skin colors, I have even met white people who had a problem with whites who had native american ancestors, mixed bloods, they called them.

As I said, I dont have a problem with skin colors, but strange physical and aesthetic mutations as I listed in my previous posts.
