I've heard:

--"I came in hear to crack the whip." This was followed by the White person making a whipping sound and pretending to crack a whip with their hand. This was said to a room fully of Blacks only!

--I've had a Vice President state shock upon reading a research study that stated Black parents speak to their kids, more than Whites, about not smoking or doing drugs. She said, "I didn't think Black people cared about that."

--A coworker (speaking about Latin music) stated that Celia Cruz was of African descent.The person added, "That's why she was so ugly!! They tried to choke the words back down their throat when they saw my expression.

i was washing tables and i was getting ready to walk past a table where a prissy white girl had left her purse, and she was coming back as i was walking past and looked me dead in my eye than turned to her guy friend and said " i cant believe you left my purse." like it was his to babysit in the first place. Man did i want to get mad, but before that moment she had called my manager a "B****" so she was getting her purse to get kicked out.hehehe.

Oh hell nall!!! This reminds me of that episode in the movie crash when the croocked cop who was white called to get information about his dad who was sick and the character played by Loretta Devine answered the phone. If you haven't seen crash, you should as it deals with many stereotypes.

Nasty white men who ask for your bra size. I don't mind getting any of them very harshly told off, male or female, when they encroach upon my space

Hmmm. My incident (it's BEEN a minute now) involved a well-known department store in my area. It was around the holidays. I was in line, as others were and ahead of me were two white females. I could plainly see that they both had plastic (credit cards) in their hand awaiting their turn at the cashier's counter.

The first one...presented her plastic, etc and left the store. While the second female was being served, another white female got in line behind me. I saw that she had only one item and I had TWO hand-held baskets full of items so I nodded the "go ahead" for her to get in front of me and continued to wait my turn. After the one that I had allowed in front of me had left, I placed the two full baskets on the counters. The sales associate asked me for my ID. I immeditately asked her, "why?" She stated that it is store policy to conduct, "random checks." I told her, "no, you can do your random check with the next person behind me (who happened to be a white female). At that point, I dismissed her, asked for the store manager and some other white female came over and asked how she could assist me. I relayed the event as it had unfolded...THREE white females paid for their merchandise with plastic--minus driver's license or any form of positive identification. This was not a random request. The manager had no plausible explanation. It did not fly with me. I requested all names and employee numbers including store number. Then walked out leaving at least $3-400 dollars worth of items on the counter.

I did a little research online and generated a letter of complaint. The end-result of my letter and cc's were well worth my efforts. Yep.

That reminds me of a time when I was working for AT&T and a silly white man kept calling in asking each representative who happened to get the call in their queue, "what color are you?" This went on for a while, then his call eventually came through to my line and when he asked me, "What color are you?" I answered, "I don't know sir, I was born blind, but if you'll give me a moment, I'll ask the gentleman sitting next to me," then I immediately disconnected the call. The gentleman who was sitting next to me happened to hear what I said, and at the same time had just put a canned drink to his mouth...he got choked and spit all of it out while laughing.
