Hey what's up everyone.

Thanks for listening to You Had Me at Black.

This next story comes from Demaryan, a poet.

He also worked at a popular Oakland sushi in jazz restaurant.

One day he decides to finally respond

to a co-worker's racist comments about black and Latino people

and all hell break flu.

His story touches on the power of the black dollar and the importance of

buying black keeping our dollar within the community. Keep listening to hear his story.

I want you to breathe all this in.

Is all this in.

And I got... This is you had me at Black, the podcast will black millennials tell true life stories.

Shh!

So I'm at work and this guy is like 45, 45 year old white dude and he just he has like a temper problem and he just gets to say whatever he wants to to anybody at work and no one does anything about it.

And you know he was serving the table of black people and he said I'm trying

to be accepted of all ethnicities right now but they're making it very

difficult for me. My reaction initially was sweeping under rug, but I mean it was like it was

summertime, there was countless videos going on on the internet of seeing people of color get killed

and black people get killed and just like insensitivity to it and I just felt a

certain type of way I just felt like I'm tired of of white people feeling like

we're just supposed to just get talked to a certain type of way, we get treated a

certain type of way and just be like insensitive to it or that we're not supposed to be present.
