I have a difficult time explaining myself to other citizens because they perceive I'm doing something wrong. I immediately turn it back to them and ask, who are you, and why do you need to know? For example, I went to Texas just south of Austin, stopped at a gas station, and was getting money at the ATM machine. A Coca-Cola delivery person came in and began speaking in a foreign language. I didn't pay attention because I did not understand. As I'm going through the ATM process, he says again louder. Finally, I look behind me and see him looking at me. I said, I don't know what language you speak, but were you talking to me? He said, Oh, sorry, bro, I thought you were Mexican. So I turned it back to him and said, "Sprechen Sie Deutsch?" He looked confused and said, "Excuse me?" I repeated myself and said it again, Sprechen Sie Deutsch? He said, sorry, bro, I can't understand. Immediately, I said, oh, I was asking if you spoke German. He said no. I was like, I thought all of you spoke German. My bad, BRO. All of a sudden, all seven white people in the gas station were looking at me like, how dare you? After the delivery person walked by, he caught on to what I was saying and apologized. He said, wow, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to assume you were Mexican. And I said, now you know what it feels like when people assume, then smiled at him. He understood the lesson learned, and we both went our way. As for the seven people in line, they learned a little about critical race theory!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA. My point is: don't explain yourself because you think you have to; make them explain themselves to you and teach them the lesson.
South Carolina is racist. Buying a house is difficult and as a child, I had a principal that lied and got me expelled from school. I’m ready to leave the State and its corruption behind me. In your case, they probably liked the dress and had never seen a pretty black woman. The fact that you were happy, and not bothering anyone they were looking to ruin your day. Stand strong and let them hate.
@@jacklyneverage3881 You're absolutely right. South Carolina is no worse than other states. For the past 30 years, the worst states for black people are found in the Midwest and North east. Where Wisconsin consistently ranked as the worst state for African-Americans followed by Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois. The north love to label the south as more racist and that's absolutely not true. Has anyone been to Milwaukee or Boston? Both Milwaukee and Boston are worst than any city in South Carolina, the same can be said with NYC, Chicago, and St. Louis...there is a reason why tRump is from NYC. One should not forget about the racism African-Americans face from other minorities as well, such as from Asians and Latinos. On top of all these, the worse is how we treat each other, I think that is even worse than racism. We need to treat each other better with respect, the way others treat their own people. For the most part, we don't treat each other with respect and love, that's the main reason our neighborhoods are the way they are.... Bottom line is we need to love each other first, before others respect us.
I am sorry that you had to go through that. It's sad that I feel no matter where we go, this is the type of stuff we have to deal with. This is coming from a person who tries to have a positive outlook on the world .
You know what really throws old white dudes off? When a black women is friendly and self confident. It confuses them for a second. They have to shift gears and be polite. They expect defensiveness and attitude. I am moving from CA to SC. I'm white and my wife is Hispanic. So I'm always paying attention to the racial dynamics wherever I go. It's subconscious now. I noticed that blacks in the South seem guarded with me at first, but I'm naturally very friendly and like meeting new people. Almost without fail as soon as I start being friendly their whole demeanor relaxes and I have met some of the most wonderful people this way. I enjoy chatting and getting to know blacks more than I do whites most of the time. African Americans tend to have way better sense of humor as a rule. Funny how that works. Y'all are way more fun! Honestly I think God has something to do with it.
Ok ok don't say that I get it was wrong of them to say that but there very nice people in SC and you not want people be nice man a lot of people are hurting because of this and you say that
I got anxiety listening to your story. Sucks to have to be questioned when you're just taking pics of yourself. Shouldn't have to explain unless there was a no trespassing sign. I recently moved to Jacksonville, NC and it's most definitely something in the air. On my walk to the beauty supply store two white women saw me walking. A couple minutes after entering the beauty supply store they both walk in. They seemed so out of place like they just wanted to see where I was going. Not to say they weren't coming to shop but they looked at me when they walked in and did some aimless browsing. It was so weird. I've experienced several situations that rubbed me the wrong way. Although i still do things alone it feels very risky...
Y’all be talking about incidents of racism that happened to y’all but you people be in the whitest part of the state 😂😂😂, the county next to Jacksonville NC, is majority black! You should of been in that county
Wow Beautiful black woman I'm not going to tell you its like that every where in America because that will be a lie some places you just don't belong there I hope you and your husband find a state our country you are respected and feel safe my long time friend moved from there to Texas 2 months ago because of that reason stay safe when I retired I relocate to the Philippines
I'm a truck driver it's racist all over this country you not going to change some people it just as racist up north, it has to do with where you are, I live in south carolina and it know different from another place in America.
This is not true I’m in South Carolina now and I never seen confederate flags in stores in the ocean front it’s flags in almost every store you walk in racist Alabama band in love in myrtle beach South Carolina is racist but still scared when I come around them !!!
“STOP‼️ Mind your business & keep it moving‼️” would be the extent of my conversation w/these people. Total strangers trying to tell a whole grown ass person what to do or not to do w/own property, yeah that wouldn’t go over well either. They are probably wondering why she is even there when the system REDLINED these people over to the other side of the tracks. Force their hand.

Im in D.C. choclate city and the racism is not just from blacks but asians as well, latinos, in Md when i was in college on the elevator where i lived a mother said to her son and husband smiling: " i didnt know prostitutes lived in this building." It was 99 degrees i jad on a halter and black pants, i was younger stunned and cried. Sis this society is racist, i can tell you a story that happened in Rome, Aruba, unfortunately its everywhere, i have also lived in Charleston Sc for a year so ueah, i do know. Blessings to you Hun😢❤🙏☀️.
@@Jeff_091 Hi. It wants to be a big city and is but is a small southern city as well that still holds klan meetings in parks. People will be very polite but after sundown or if you are in certain areas you literally feel and know you're back in time. You're not going to see lots of blacks in a wholefoods or farmer markets, or even a Starbucks, most you see in areas that are middle-class or from somewhere else or visiting. I visited Savannah ga this summer and was surprised how backwards the blacks were, very snobby self hating elitist country bumkins. So yeah it's everywhere but people complain of Florida but if You're married Orlando is pretty cool. It's been about six years since I've lived in Charleston, so maybe it has changed..for the better
Do anything in a negative light? You should've asked him about the negative history they've created with the history of our country! What a chumpazz man! Keep going and sharing. Thank you.
Thanks for this video. It was very raw and informative. I would like to move south SC or NC. I really enjoy the country life. Both my parents are from the south. I lived in Albany,GA for 4 yrs. The racism is very blatant. I was shocked to experience black on black racism. I'm from NJ, there is racism however, it's not so,"in your face."
Im from NYC n am considering moving south since most of family is there but I know I wouldn't do well with some stranger asking me questions about something I'm doing that doesn't concern them. You know up north this is not the engergy we give. Of course racism is everywhere but I've never encountered it so overtly.
@@tammiecee7301 you are definitely an old head who parents ran up north 100 years ago and you’re thinking of some deplorable great migration stories 😂 you’ve dealt with racism in New York plenty of times but because it’s not the South you simply ignored it
The dress is cutee!!! And that’s North Carolina for you! I love the south but it’s such a terrible place for racism! I love how calm that you were in the situation!
I'm a white male, and my wife and I now live in Greer, near Greenville. Until the last two years, I never even thought about race. My best friend for the past 40 years is an immigrant from Ethiopia, and my wife is of Asian Indian origin. Our friend mix is about 80% white, 20% non-white, based upon the people we are close to from work, neighborhood, etc. Almost all of us are conservative, including the blacks. None of us give a damn about color. Martin Luther King wanted his children to be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin. Now, with Antifa and BLM, that is changing. Conservative values are opposed to racism. Racism is never acceptable. Where there is racism, we should work toward changing it, but we should not burn down and destroy the country with no real understanding of human history. The charge of racism has become a weapon, and I am happy that you are somewhat reserved in jumping to racism on a regular basis. I would like to find out more about this church and would be happy to go to that church to do further investigation. My wife and I would welcome the chance to meet you and your husband sometime. Where there is real racism, let's work to get rid of it together.
White boy! Please stop the BS , (racism isn’t real) you live in the white region of South Carolina aka the upstate, the other 3 regions are majority black (mid lands , PEEDEE, low country) , you stating you have an immigrant friend doesn’t mean anything because I doubt you have Actual black American ( DESCENDANTS OF USA CHATTEL SLAVERY 🇺🇸) friends.. and I’m sure you are against black Americans (descendants of USA chattel slavery) getting representation , so instead of typing your guilty conscience away, just simply be quiet
@@OhDatsJaVion How dare you! Your descendance does not give you the right to ignore history. Of course racism is real, but not institutional racism. Half the freaking world is descended from slavery. There are as many as a million slaves currently held in Africa by black slaveholders. Maybe listed to the teachings of someone like Thomas Sowell sometime for the truth. More black people are killed on the streets of Chicago in two weeks by other blacks than are shot in a year by police. Wake up and grow up. You are responsible for your situation, not slavery of the past or imagined systemic racism. When there is racism, let's call it out together, but the vast majority of people are not racist. Stop using it as a freaking excuse. The liberal policies of the Dems contributed to the degradation of black families under the guise of anti-racism. You are following the popular crap instead of learning history. Half of my family were killed in the concentration camps of Nazis but I don't use that as an excuse not to perform, nor do I feel I deserve reparations from people who were not alive when it happened. Again, grow the F up.
I'm sorry this happened to you. But, the south is a different breed of people. I live in NC and things are so visible now. People are very brave in showing their true feelings towards racism. I think SC is worse than NC, but racism is racism.
seeeeeee you are so elegant because me -- honey, I wouldnt have answered anything. like MIND YOUR BUISINESS SIR. Im also from the midwest so its a little different here. You are beautiful thanks for sharing your experience. !
I think im just at the age where im not explaining myself to a racist lol unless you are an officer I don't need to tell you what im doing, why im doing it or who i am. Those people run around like its still the 60's lmao
Hi I hate that you went through that. I know that this vid is 2 yrs old, but I wonder if its still like that now. I was considering relocating to Greenville but I kinda knew that I need to look more into how racist it is especially being in the South. The South is really based off slavery so I’m not surprised.
My wife is from Georgetown. We live in Texas and I was looking to buy some land to move out there because land is much cheaper than Texas. I don’t laugh if nothing funny nor scratch if there’s no itch.
I lived in Greenville SC and the racism made me move back up north. I should have moved somewhere else down there but it was a premature decision made while I was upset from a racist incident. It’s just as racist up here too especially now
The upstate part of South Carolina is the white region (republican😂) that’s where majority of white people are in South Carolina, the midlands (Richland county etc) , low country (Hampton county etc) PEEDEE region (Florence,claredon county etc) are all majority black counties/region of South Carolina! Columbia is the Atlanta of South Carolina economically/politically
@@OhDatsJaVioni’ve been near the greenville sc area my whole 35 yrs. of life 😂 i’m so sick of this boring place! i don’t pay the white ppl any attention b/c i’ll cuss their asses out & keep on about my business!! we literally have to travel hrs. to have fun fun with the kids! any suggestions down by the lowcountry? i’d prefer the country life!
Have you found a black Nail tech down there? What happened at the Nail spot? Sorry you had to go through that. People can be so ignorant. You handled it well
You black northerners are fun “have you found a black nail tech down there” 😂 I know living outside the south in states (NJ, NY, ETC) where the statewide black population ain’t even 15%! meaning there aren’t that many black businesses around and if so there only in the city!! But once you hit Delaware/Maryland/Virginia/Carolinas etc THE SOUTH where black Americans are minimum 30%-45% of the state population (Florida/Texas NOT INCLUDED) the Plethora of black businesses is beyond an abundant , from construction/engineering/black own healthcare operations in both rural/suburban/urban areas etc and especially black own hair/nail stores
@@OhDatsJaVion i dont know whats funny about what I said, I was generally asking because I just moved to the area. Secondly im from the tri-state area. Born and raised matter of fact. So I dont know what point you were trying to make but try again. There are lots of black owned businesses in the tri-state area. Outside the city. So im not sure what your point was but okayyyy.
@@Diivasatti my point is you asking a silly question “are there any black nail operations in the South Carolina etc” black Americans are 30-38% of the entire state population & control majority of the counties in the state & own majority of the land 🙃, common sense should tell you that your question should be how many ! Not if they exist!! In the tri state area the black American population is rapidly declining as majority of them move south ! Therefore the probability of having various black own operation is low /declining
It’s soooo hard finding a place to live being black I swear I hate people. I live in pa and I look at the homes in the south all the time. If I sell my house here we can buy a mansion in the south but the racism scares me soo much and holds me back from moving. Smfh. Sucks
Asian in general are treated by whites better than the way blacks are treated. You will not have issues living in SC or NC. The racism black people experience is way worse that what Asians experience. Of all races in the USA, black people experience racism the most. Also, tRump makes it OK and cool to express racism now openly.
If you think racism is worse in the South try living in New England particularly Boston and it's surrounding suburbs that place makes the south look and feel like Sesame street when it comes to racism.
Who the hell are you and what right do you have to be questioning me is how my conversation would have went with them. You should post the pictures on social media, tag the church and leave a brief story underneath about how you were treated by those church members and what they said.
I find it intresting, you found it necessary to engage. They were watching and said nothing until you spoke. Why did you find it necessary to explain your presence?
It was a power flex & control to boost their ego because they’re bored with no life. 🤣 Btw, you’re gorgeous ✨and if it was a nonblack woman in the car then yep makes sense. Jealousy.
Hmmmm i need another example of your racist experience because I've heard worse in the North, Africa and China. But i wasn't there sooo... btw you are beautiful. God Bless
You gave them too much energy. I don't explain things to people who approach me in that manner. It's none of their business. That line of questioning is similar to being asked for freedom papers.
Columbia isn’t diverse is simply black American (descendants of USA chattel slavery) along with majority of the states counties! The only main white region of South Carolina is the upstate (Greenville/Spartanburg Anderson) the only pure white enclave in the midland is Lexington
It's not just a southern thing. Those guys were probably suspicious of you because your black. Especially give the recent racial violence and tension in the nation. In one respect I can understand a church not wanting to be represented in anyone's social media without knowing what it's about. I'm Eastern Orthodox and we have beautiful churches. We don't mind people taking pictures, we just want to know who they are. Sadly not everyone is as classy and elegant as you. BTY your husband is a blessed man, make sure he understands that. Those men should have been gentleman and introduced themselves to you, perhaps even inviting your family to church. I found it's better to assume the best of people and get to know them. Sounds like their prejudice crowded out Christian charity.
To imply that that they weren't racist because they were suspicious because she is "Black" says where your mind is does the color of one 's skin make them suspicious. I love my beautiful brown skin it protects me from the sun God made it that way. How dare someone imply because of your skin tone your suspicious sound like a white supremacist's mind to me and in reality, it is Demonic. Anybody can go into a church however do you have a true relationship with The Most High Elohim no not really because many have even misread the Holy scriptures. Remember Caucasian people would go to church then for their after activities hang a black man eat have popcorn and cotton candy with their children to see this is demonic and sick stop making excuses.
Stop holding conversation with these people, every video black people act like they OWE someone an explanation. You Don't.. All you had to say "I taking photo of whatever. No more responses after that. Their making you think you have to answer them, it's all a game and we keep falling for it. If you stop talking they will leave or get angry because your taking control of the situation which they don't like. Think about it, it's like a master controlling a slave "What are you doing? answer up woman" It's a power move, I had people stop and ask me questions, I stay in my lane. I have no problem with them talking, if they want to call the police let them. They make a physical move, chin check....
Why would you answer questions for a stranger? Given you were trespassing .. id ask If they have authority to talk to you ask for ID and how they are related to the church, if not I'd go on with my day! Don't talk to strangers ☺️
Doesn't sound racist to me. Sounds like they don't know your character and don't want you doing anything inappropriate while taking pictures in front of the church and then posting online, which if you were doing something, could misrepresent their church especially without context.
"Know your place" and if you are a Big Black Man well spoken and dont know this culture then save your money and stay outta this part of the USA for living "trouble" will come QUICKER to you there
Oh, please do tell me where is safe for any black person to go on America black Americans politically economically are better off in the south where we own most of these southern states lands
Some people don't like you recording or filming there property or a friend....even though yes it is legal...if they don't like it and got and attitude with you and did something oh well guess you dindt have to be there even though they may be wrong it your choice though....mayb just keep hanging out and see how that goes mayb it will end positive for both parties.....just keep going around filming its your right
If you don't like where your living....you could always go anywhere else you want nobody is holding you against your will ...that way mayb you will find what your looking for

I would like to find out more about this church and would be happy to go to that church to do further investigation. My wife and I would welcome the chance to meet you and your husband sometime. Where there is real racism, let's work to get rid of it together.
White boy! Please stop the BS , (racism isn’t real) you live in the white region of South Carolina aka the upstate, the other 3 regions are majority black (mid lands , PEEDEE, low country) , you stating you have an immigrant friend doesn’t mean anything because I doubt you have Actual black American ( DESCENDANTS OF USA CHATTEL SLAVERY 🇺🇸) friends.. and I’m sure you are against black Americans (descendants of USA chattel slavery) getting representation , so instead of typing your guilty conscience away, just simply be quiet
@@OhDatsJaVion How dare you! Your descendance does not give you the right to ignore history. Of course racism is real, but not institutional racism. Half the freaking world is descended from slavery. There are as many as a million slaves currently held in Africa by black slaveholders. Maybe listed to the teachings of someone like Thomas Sowell sometime for the truth. More black people are killed on the streets of Chicago in two weeks by other blacks than are shot in a year by police. Wake up and grow up. You are responsible for your situation, not slavery of the past or imagined systemic racism. When there is racism, let's call it out together, but the vast majority of people are not racist. Stop using it as a freaking excuse. The liberal policies of the Dems contributed to the degradation of black families under the guise of anti-racism. You are following the popular crap instead of learning history. Half of my family were killed in the concentration camps of Nazis but I don't use that as an excuse not to perform, nor do I feel I deserve reparations from people who were not alive when it happened. Again, grow the F up.
@@OhDatsJaVion Oh, and you are the racist
Huh
@@hiramrosajr8231😂😂
I'm sorry this happened to you. But, the south is a different breed of people. I live in NC and things are so visible now. People are very brave in showing their true feelings towards racism. I think SC is worse than NC, but racism is racism.
Very very true
Naw I think NC has South Carolina
Ran across this video thats crazy . I live in Anderson and I haven't had any known problems like that. People are a trip tho
seeeeeee you are so elegant because me -- honey, I wouldnt have answered anything. like MIND YOUR BUISINESS SIR. Im also from the midwest so its a little different here. You are beautiful thanks for sharing your experience. !
Martiqua Trammell I'm glad she's not like you . She did the right thing
I think im just at the age where im not explaining myself to a racist lol unless you are an officer I don't need to tell you what im doing, why im doing it or who i am. Those people run around like its still the 60's lmao
This .
Hi I hate that you went through that. I know that this vid is 2 yrs old, but I wonder if its still like that now. I was considering relocating to Greenville but I kinda knew that I need to look more into how racist it is especially being in the South. The South is really based off slavery so I’m not surprised.
Who the hell is he to ask you anything? My reply would be "why do you care?"
It was all the QUESTIONS FOR ME ..
Also it must be some kinda racist history behind that church. What's the name and location of it?
My wife is from Georgetown. We live in Texas and I was looking to buy some land to move out there because land is much cheaper than Texas. I don’t laugh if nothing funny nor scratch if there’s no itch.
Ughh Columbia SC is my hometown. HATED it. Moved to Atlanta GA 7 years ago. No place is perfect of courses but it's better than boring behind SC
see I'm a Jersey girl and I wish someone in South Carolina would approach me saying that. That's terrible
I lived in Greenville SC and the racism made me move back up north. I should have moved somewhere else down there but it was a premature decision made while I was upset from a racist incident. It’s just as racist up here too especially now
The upstate part of South Carolina is the white region (republican😂) that’s where majority of white people are in South Carolina, the midlands (Richland county etc) , low country (Hampton county etc) PEEDEE region (Florence,claredon county etc) are all majority black counties/region of South Carolina! Columbia is the Atlanta of South Carolina economically/politically
@@OhDatsJaVioni’ve been near the greenville sc area my whole 35 yrs. of life 😂 i’m so sick of this boring place! i don’t pay the white ppl any attention b/c i’ll cuss their asses out & keep on about my business!! we literally have to travel hrs. to have fun fun with the kids! any suggestions down by the lowcountry? i’d prefer the country life!
@@OhDatsJaVionI'm thinking of moving to Columbia, South Carolina how are the jobs?
Thanks for this thinking about buying a home there I don't want to be where people are crazy, @@OhDatsJaVion
Have you found a black Nail tech down there?
What happened at the Nail spot?
Sorry you had to go through that. People can be so ignorant. You handled it well
I moved to NJ ! And have a black nail tech !
You black northerners are fun “have you found a black nail tech down there” 😂
I know living outside the south in states (NJ, NY, ETC) where the statewide black population ain’t even 15%! meaning there aren’t that many black businesses around and if so there only in the city!!
But once you hit Delaware/Maryland/Virginia/Carolinas etc THE SOUTH where black Americans are minimum 30%-45% of the state population (Florida/Texas NOT INCLUDED) the
Plethora of black businesses is beyond an abundant , from construction/engineering/black own healthcare operations in both rural/suburban/urban areas etc and especially black own hair/nail stores
@@OhDatsJaVion i dont know whats funny about what I said, I was generally asking because I just moved to the area. Secondly im from the tri-state area. Born and raised matter of fact. So I dont know what point you were trying to make but try again. There are lots of black owned businesses in the tri-state area. Outside the city. So im not sure what your point was but okayyyy.
@@OhDatsJaVion and im talking about SC looking for a nail tech , NOT NJ
@@Diivasatti my point is you asking a silly question “are there any black nail operations in the South Carolina etc” black Americans are 30-38% of the entire state population & control majority of the counties in the state & own majority of the land 🙃, common sense should tell you that your question should be how many ! Not if they exist!!
In the tri state area the black American population is rapidly declining as majority of them move south ! Therefore the probability of having various black own operation is low /declining
It’s soooo hard finding a place to live being black I swear I hate people. I live in pa and I look at the homes in the south all the time. If I sell my house here we can buy a mansion in the south but the racism scares me soo much and holds me back from moving. Smfh. Sucks
Rox🥺 girl I'm sorry that happened to you. In 2021😑like, what even?
It’s crazy
Wow.. I m planing to move to sc or nc, I am asian live in Florida, so I m a lil afraid and gather lots information before I make decisions
Asian in general are treated by whites better than the way blacks are treated. You will not have issues living in SC or NC. The racism black people experience is way worse that what Asians experience. Of all races in the USA, black people experience racism the most. Also, tRump makes it OK and cool to express racism now openly.
5 points nice ,zoo,it's nice move to Columbia yall will enjoy it harbinson northeast don't go to Lexington Cayce Columbia it's the capital
Nailed it, Harbison & northeast are both majority black upper class/middle class suburbs
Your beutiful! That’s all over the world people are so rude.
Hey cutie I’m sorry you encountered those weirdos
Okay you wanna keep talkin bout ya outfit on or South Carolina
I would not have even given conversation but hey that's me
It seemed to me that they were asking questions and that's it. I was not there, so I can't speak on if it was racism or not.
Girllllll, I don't know how you can take it, it's worse in the South.
Yea it’s crazy
If you think racism is worse in the South try living in New England particularly Boston and it's surrounding suburbs that place makes the south look and feel like Sesame street when it comes to racism.
I wish you would said “ I am an Aboriginal Woman in my own land you are technically trespassing “ #Blackindians #Danecolloway 🏹
Who the hell are you and what right do you have to be questioning me is how my conversation would have went with them. You should post the pictures on social media, tag the church and leave a brief story underneath about how you were treated by those church members and what they said.
There’s an idea!
I find it intresting, you found it necessary to engage. They were watching and said nothing until you spoke.
Why did you find it necessary to explain your presence?
I hate that happened to you, be careful out there.
Yea def .
Those were suspected white supremacists you had dealt with sweetheart
That's normal, and It's American. I'm a black woman from Charleston SC.
Hello
I am a black man
How does it feel like to live in south Carolina? Is there a lot of racism there? Tell me please
You should post the name of the church because clearly the members are suspect.
❤❤❤❤awsome girl ❤❤❤
It was a power flex & control to boost their ego because they’re bored with no life. 🤣 Btw, you’re gorgeous ✨and if it was a nonblack woman in the car then yep makes sense. Jealousy.
You looked beautiful. But South Carolina is my dream
Hmmmm i need another example of your racist experience because I've heard worse in the North, Africa and China. But i wasn't there sooo... btw you are beautiful. God Bless
You gave them too much energy. I don't explain things to people who approach me in that manner. It's none of their business. That line of questioning is similar to being asked for freedom papers.
Next time ask them to give you 3 examples of looking bad.
Please move to Columbia sc girl it's diversep] more pay move girl
Columbia isn’t diverse is simply black American (descendants of USA chattel slavery) along with majority of the states counties! The only main white region of South Carolina is the upstate (Greenville/Spartanburg Anderson) the only pure white enclave in the midland is Lexington
@@OhDatsJaVion thank you
No it’s not
pretty young sista!
I think you look great, your dress is adorable. You shouldn’t have to explain yourself to anyone…. People are wonky and racist all over sadly.
Think it was more Prejudice, Stereotyping a black woman as being Suspicious, lewd.
It's not just a southern thing. Those guys were probably suspicious of you because your black. Especially give the recent racial violence and tension in the nation. In one respect I can understand a church not wanting to be represented in anyone's social media without knowing what it's about. I'm Eastern Orthodox and we have beautiful churches. We don't mind people taking pictures, we just want to know who they are. Sadly not everyone is as classy and elegant as you. BTY your husband is a blessed man, make sure he understands that.
Those men should have been gentleman and introduced themselves to you, perhaps even inviting your family to church. I found it's better to assume the best of people and get to know them. Sounds like their prejudice crowded out Christian charity.
To imply that that they weren't racist because they were suspicious because she is "Black" says where your mind is does the color of one 's skin make them suspicious. I love my beautiful brown skin it protects me from the sun God made it that way. How dare someone imply because of your skin tone your suspicious sound like a white supremacist's mind to me and in reality, it is Demonic. Anybody can go into a church however do you have a true relationship with The Most High Elohim no not really because many have even misread the Holy scriptures. Remember Caucasian people would go to church then for their after activities hang a black man eat have popcorn and cotton candy with their children to see this is demonic and sick stop making excuses.
Nail place. Yes.
Stop holding conversation with these people, every video black people act like they OWE someone an explanation. You Don't..
All you had to say "I taking photo of whatever. No more responses after that. Their making you think you have to answer them, it's all a game and we keep falling for it. If you stop talking they will leave or get angry because your taking control of the situation which they don't like. Think about it, it's like a master controlling a slave "What are you doing? answer up woman" It's a power move, I had people stop and ask me questions, I stay in my lane. I have no problem with them talking, if they want to call the police let them. They make a physical move, chin check....
Are your ancestors original from this country.... I hear an accent.
Why would you answer questions for a stranger? Given you were trespassing .. id ask If they have authority to talk to you ask for ID and how they are related to the church, if not I'd go on with my day! Don't talk to strangers ☺️
I'm followed due to a tracker on my car. This is everyday. Yesterday it was the bank. Racism here is the way of life. Ilive in fear in Summerville SC.
Someone put a tracker on your car? How you doing now?
Sorry you had bad experiences!
I think they thought you were Beautiful and they wanted to have a conversation with you 😂 I think they were just awkward 🤦🏾
Facts just started a conversation
Doesn't sound racist to me. Sounds like they don't know your character and don't want you doing anything inappropriate while taking pictures in front of the church and then posting online, which if you were doing something, could misrepresent their church especially without context.
Kinda what I was thinking. Still bad experience nonetheless.
How is this racist?
Wow!!! A Caucasian really
Please, that’s nothing
It’s matronly not appealing!
You over reacted
😂😂😂😂😂
That has nothing to do with being black 😂 you are on property you don't own. Get some common sense lady.
Well Just nove to your true origin place: Africa
"Know your place" and if you are a Big Black Man well spoken and dont know this culture then save your money and stay outta this part of the USA for living "trouble" will come QUICKER to you there
Oh, please do tell me where is safe for any black person to go on America
black Americans politically economically are better off in the south where we own most of these southern states lands
@@OhDatsJaVionright b/c we know how to maneuver through SC dealing with them wyte folks!! it ain’t that difficult like ppl making it! 🙄
@@BriBri256hello I am a black man how does it feel to live in south Carolina?
I live there 2
Some people don't like you recording or filming there property or a friend....even though yes it is legal...if they don't like it and got and attitude with you and did something oh well guess you dindt have to be there even though they may be wrong it your choice though....mayb just keep hanging out and see how that goes mayb it will end positive for both parties.....just keep going around filming its your right
