Working in retail it has been my experience that some people have an ere about them that makes them feel as though they are better than me. They refuse to look me in my face, throw money at me, or talk to me as if I don't know english. This happens more often than not. I don't want to think that it is because I am an African American female. I want to think that it is a class or gender difference but I'm running out of excuses. I am beginning to believe that other cultures falsely believe that black people will forever be inferior to them. I cannot generalize about everyone because what is true for one is never true for all, but I guess my real question is are there some people of different classes that believe in the back of their mind,whether they will say it or not, that people of African descent are really inferior to them?
