“You’re bigger than the average person, period. And you’re also an African American,” the employee, Charles Belton, who is black, told Kennedy. “We’re in Arizona. I don’t have to tell you about what the demographics are in Arizona. They don’t see people like you a lot.”

    Poor guy...he didn’t get elite “private client” status at his bank.

    First off, it’s wrong for the bank to do that. But, second, move your millions to a different bank. I’m sure there’s a less bigoted bank that will love to take his money.

    Also, nice strawman ass clown. Nobody said racism is gone. However, trying to argue that it’s not better than what it used to be is ignorant. Improvement still needs to be made but improvement is ongoing. “Incremental progress” is what the coaching great Sark once said.

    You’re not going to end bigotry that has been indoctrinated into entire generations. With each passing generation, bigotry will be less and less rampant.

    I was told that if I wanted to keep my bigotry, then I would be able to do so.

    Except the past three years people seem more willing to be vocal about their racism.

    There are a few dead Jewish folks in New Jersey who are very sad about him not getting a private banker.
