Sam you’re a loser
@@abgr5747 no he's not meanie
@@SimplytheHobbyist he making videos that cause division . You’re a racist also
All involved are actors so what is the point of this? What have you achieved apart from click bait?
@@SimplytheHobbyist you shouldn’t watch this then ,it’s a lie . This doesn’t happen like this .
I stopped renting because of the obstacles that I faced as a black man, now I owe properties and as a landlord, I am only interested in my tenant's reference and money
Well I am a black man who’s never had this problem so what obstacles do you speak of? Is it all in your head, nobody cares about your damn skin color but you man...
@@jonesaundre3 Because it didn't happen to you don't mean you dismiss his experiences. You ain't black boy stop lying cause if u black u damn sure have experienced at some point. I call bullshit u white troll pretending to be black. Blacks don't claim you, dismissing peoples feeling . Karmas a Biotch and if u haven't had the experience, now u most certainly will. Good Luck!
That’s exactly what I do, I actually told one of my clients I don’t care what color they are as long as they have money for the deposit first months rent, have references and can pay for the unit there’s a good chance they will be moving in
@@jonesaundre3 I can agree with you to a point but I’ve seen narrow minded people out here
@@jonesaundre3 You should shut up while your behind..
Sad but true...when I was a teenager, me and my Grandfather were doing some yard work on a townhouse in the Tidewater area of Virginia during the 80's...a white young couple possibly in their mid to late 20's ...saw the For Sale sign on the door and started looking around at the place...my Grandfather spoke to them and said " Hello, how can I help you?" ...The Man refused to shake his hand and looked at my Grandfather like he was beneath him because he was dressed in denim overalls and a t shirt with some work boots on...they left and drove off in their Mercedes Benz...a week later, my Grandfather said he saw the same Man at a grocery store talking to a member of the city council and a former judge...the former Judge spoke to my Grandfather and introduced the Man to my Grandfather ..." I would like you to meet retired Master Gunnery Sgt Clyde A. Toler ...he is a member of the City Council and he also owns some property downtown...including a couple of nice townhouses"...my Grandfather said the Man's face turned beet red!
Good for that POS. I would've been petty and said "yeah I think we've met but not officially. Iirc he scoffed at me while I was attempting to help him out and show him around. I don't know if he still wants to see the house....I think that Benz he has would look good in the front yard 😏."
Yessseeee
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽✊🏽Love it..BLESS YOU🙏🏽
Thanks For Sharing your Story.🌹
I certainly hope that man had the cojones to apologize to your Grandfather for his own bad behavior. >.< racism hurts everyone involved and it's impossible to gauge how many lives it's ruined and how much $$$$$$$$$ it's cost the short-sighted 1% ultra-rich "people/corporations" who focus only on their profit margins, and never on the Common Good.
Jake had me dying! "Pack up all your sh** and get the f*** off of his property!" That suit that look and the voice..LMAO! great delivery!
Same
Well the guy he was talking to was a dick. Pacifically to black people.
Omg, I laughed so hard when he said that to him! 😂🤣
lol
Hey, if you want to make a good impression of a video the teaches people, at least make it be "monetized"
This happened to me, just wanting to rent a room some years ago. My friend who is white came with me. She stayed in the car. I spoke to the lady over the phone, she was nice....OVER THE PHONE. When I arrived I went and knocked on the door, the lady looked at me and said, Oh, it's rented, I told her but I just got off the phone with you. She said, it happened so quick. I knew exactly what was going on. So I asked my friend to go knock while I stayed behind. She was showed the room and asked if she wanted to rent it, she said no, but my friend wanted to, she called me over and I said, Oh, I thought you said it was rented???? She just looked at both of us and told us to get off her property. I have never been a bum! I'm have always been a hard working woman, but this lady only seen my skin color.
I wouldn't want to rent from her either.
You could have sued
@@DeeDee-hx1km question. If you have a room in your house (that you live in) for rent and you want to rent it to a female and a Male looks at it, can you refuse to rent it to him?
Disgusting!
Over 20 years ago, my Black friend, a man, and I, were told at the door of a B&B that I had reserved for us, in Northern California.. that she did not have the reservation. She saw a Black man and a White woman. I very sternly told her to put us up.. and she said, ok only for one night.
This is 2021.. and not much has changed.
Isn't it the same kind of thing like you are free to marry or not certain people?
it is amazing how much energy they put into skin color when we are all just spirits passing thru...
I like that! Very profound statement!
Damn deep
Amzaetyzs
Soooo...we'er supposed to let folks treat us any way and just disrespect us because in your words " we are all spirits passing thru". You and the rest of the nuts that agree with your post don't get somewhere....
@@vernonconaway2580 That was neither said nor implied. Take your fake profile and try to instigate trouble somewhere else.
When you judge someone, it defines who you are, not them. IT DEFINES ... YOU.
I agree
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Exactly ✊🏽
Yes I second that
You couldn't have said it better.
You took the words right out of my mouth! I could NOT agree more!
I am a white man and I got great satisfaction in how this racist was shut down. It should not take all this effort to get people fair and equal treatment. It is past time that we treat people by the content or their heart, not the color of their skin. I think Dr. Martin Luther King shared that many years ago. It needs to catch on.
Only if more people thought like you.
No racist was shut down, this was a fake video with really bad acting.
MLK's dream has turned into a horrific nightmare. And it's only gonna get worse.
It's the content of their character Martin said👍🏾
This is still going on til this day it's a shame.
I’ve been through that as a tenant and as an employee. This is why I run my own business, as well as because a successful landlord. When you have your own money, you are more liberated, meaning that there is less bull$h!t that you have to accept from people.
The funny things happened to me when I became my own boss and also started owning property. The same faces that discriminated against me in the past would eventually wind up needing me for a job, or needing a place to rent. I had to remain humble and turn the other cheek.
You have to be careful about how you treat people, as you might be at that person’s mercy in the future.
You are absolutely right remember the golden rule treat people the way you wish to be treate...that's why we have to be mindful about how we treat people if you mistreat people you might need that person help.
People should stop judging other people's color, thank you, for a positive video.
The people who judge others by skin color will have some hard lessons to learn in this life.
I agree! I also want to say that just because someone has a bad credit score doesn't always means they don't pay their intentionally, they could be doing their damnest to clear it up but it takes time.
Those people whom insult people cos of color they actually are doing more harm to demselvez
@Seven Taylor 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 you are absolutely correct racism itself is it's own pandemic
They do that all the time.
I had this happen to me at a local Toyota dealership because of the vehicle, my son's beat up work car, that I rode in to the dealership. The man told me straight out "You can not afford any car on this lot!" At the time I was working 40+ hours per week as a nurse at the local hospital with a 800+ credit score that he didn't even ask me about because he approched me at the door! I called & filed a complaint & a week later I went to the same dealership with my new Chevy Tahoe, looked at the guy & I told him, "You made a big mistake!"
You go Pretty Woman [Julia Roberts] ! ;)
Congratulations. That idiot should be fired. Then we'll see what he can or can't afford
Mary that’s the way you handle it. His lost your gained,LOL!
I had to do a car salesman the same way, and the sad thing about it is they kept calling me after I called and complained on their salesman. They told me I can come an get a car I told them no, I don't need your car now I went and got me a new car from a different car lot.
Helo I found Ur Awesom nam Mary Bauers randomly So I am Curious if I can ask You Questions about Frustrating Vague Events etc?(~~~~).
The fact that BOTH of them put their hands up at the SAME time is just hilarious.
Sadly this happens all the time. I'm a Realtor in Florida and I have prospects calling me literally crying because they can't find anyone to rent to them. Everyone should be given same diligence.
Racism will always be it is taught and learned behavior. We are never going to change who these people are....our greatest combat against this is to file discrimination claims and to start buying up the block.

Please spell your screen name properly. I don't judge people on the colour of their skin, but I do judge them on their lack of attention to detail. It takes away the impact of your name because it’s spelled incorrectly. It’s ‘strength’.
@@michaelknight4253 🤣🤣🤣
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I respect that but there's no need to make life more difficult than it already is. I have no excuse for my incorrect spelling other than the fact that English is not my first language and I speak 4 other languages and I don't always wear my glasses when texting. Sorry if my lack of details offended you!
@@Limani87 You don't need to explain yourself to internet trolls. Fuck that dude.
@@Limani87 apology wasn’t necessary for that turd.
This happens a LOT!! My ex-boyfriend was white & we went to check out apartments together but separate. He was wearing sweats, I was wearing business clothes. He was greeted as within seconds of coming thru the front door with a handshake. While I was asked “Is there anything I can help you with?” He was offered an extra apt that wasn’t even shown to me. And when asked I was told it wouldn’t be ready because it was being “remodeled”. I had papers showing I had an above 700 credit score and was told there are other things that factor in that I could be denied. While he stated he only had a credit score of 550 (not true-he actually had a 620 unbeknownst to them). It was so discriminatory. We finally settled on a place that treated us the same.
To say that it happens all the time would be an understatement. It just sucks that it happens at all.
Be careful. The internet tough guys will be coming saying this didn't happen or discrimination doesn't exist at all except in your head. Ppl hate to admit reality because they somehow think you are saying they are responsible for actions of someone that looks like them. They think you are calling them racist for the actions of Amy and Jim but all you're saying is like discrimination is alive and well and you experienced it at the hands of Amy and Jim.
I had a very near experience as you, but w/jobs. I phoned school districts around Atlanta, just before grad school was over (years ago) and was told there were no positions, etc. after I told them my race. (Which was their first question.) My friend, of another color, phoned (literally on the same phone mere seconds later) and had the exact same qualifications (same grad school, major, grades, etc.) as me and was told there were more than enough positions and when could they schedule an interview? Boy, that stuck w/me for a very long time. Surprise! My friend got a job, I didn't.
I'm sorry about your experience. I do not know your situation, but your credit score is above 700. Why pay someone else's mortgage? Buy something! I tell my tenants with ears to hear to buy anything that they can buy in their capacity. You will be a "landLORD" yourself. The very person that rejected you might be someday the person wanting to rent something from you. When that happens, go easy. You have already won. Start asap. Refer to my post that I posted just now.
I have no doubt it happens, and probably more than we know. I guess I've never understood the mindset, and I've heard people say stuff like, "the blacks are moving in across the street," or "we've got Mexicans next door," etc. So what? If they're good neighbors, I don't care about their ethnicity, color, religion or any of that. When people get obsessed or prejudiced about that kind of thing, I wonder what other creepy ideas they have.
Discrimination happens everywhere in the workplace, schools, housing etc.
The only way to find the one who continue to discriminate in real estate is to send in secret shoppers of different color, who are working together and see the different attitude & treatment & price they get!
I agree because I have been treated just as this and it use to happen back in the days even more.
You got it Sister!! Down to a SCIENCE🤣
That is a good idea.
Every time I experience this racism it makes me feel stronger and proud of myself being a black person!
You have every right to feel & be proud of your heritage.
Thru the years at 70, I have had several Afro American friends.Never once was a political conversation involved. I learned about your history, yes the suffering & pain. I also learned the amazing contributions made to our society and still do daily.
This IS what in important.Bless you sir
@@SandraGarcia-ho4lb I agree with you,we should appreciate and embrace our heritage as black people, racism has been there ever since till to date we have to accept to leave with it and ready to show the world we are not bothered with racism. Oh madam not sir 🤣🤣
That businessman went gangster in 2 sec. "Get the ...k off this property!" LOL🤣
🥶😱🤯😩🤣💀
Mess around with someone's business or money and the gangster within them will always come out eventually! 🤣🤣
Lol. It's not funny, at all, but it's just that, in life, people are rarely as overt with their prejudices, especially when it comes to financial transactions. They'll do it round the way.
Lol 😂 he learned real quick
I know right 😆
It goes to show you that you can be the nicest person, do all the right things in life, treat everyone with respect and dignity, and still some people see you as an enemy. Things like this can cause one to lose hope in humanity.
Happens all the time...for the one good they are 9 out of 10 bad out there
For every one person like that, there are at least 2 that are not. The world is changing - waking up. We tried so hard in the 1960's, and were met with being shot to death, beaten to death - or nearly to death. I was in a peaceful rally in Detroit, Michigan, in the 1960s, after the deaths of Dr. King, President Kennedy, and Robert Kennedy. Believe it or not, the racial hatred then was orders of magnitude higher than today, as bad as it is. I was arrested (along with my sister, and two brothers), and beaten in front of them, as they all begged for my life, while a cop put a .357 to my temple, and just said "move." I am "white," but had long hair, and many, many black brothers and sisters - who I was demonstrating with, along with my 2 adopted black brothers. They had to watch me, bleeding, flipped onto my back with that gun to my head, while a big, fat, bald-headed white cop put his cigar out on the tender flesh beneath my chin, on my neck. I have the scar, today (at 70), and wear it with pride. I lost a lot of "white" and "black" friends in those years and came very close to death many times - that's why the music of the time is so moving and deep: young people, "black" AND "white" were united as one force, for the first time; but the time has come again. Time to show those who would perpetuate the myth that one part of Humanity - no matter what their skin pigment - is 'better' than another. Each generation has its own struggle - but it IS getting better.
Imagine how bad it was before there were any dash-cams, smartphones, or body cams, and the horribly obscene and violent acts these same kinds of cops would do if there was NO WAY TO PROVE what they had done?
Don't lose your faith in humanity - that's the WORST thing you could do, because it puts to waste all the deaths and sacrifices of people who have been struggling to change things for the better, for generations. (I lost 3 great-great uncles in the Civil War - all kids in their twenties - and if anyone ever tries to tell you that the Civil War wasn't about slavery - it was. I have all three journals of these young men - just shopkeepers and farmer's sons, and it's all they wrote about [until they were killed] - changing the future for the better for slaves). My father's side of my family was almost lost - only one small boy survived, and even he ran away and tried to join the Union Army.
These are the kinds of people that you must understand far outnumber those who are bitter, angry, arrogant, and ignorant racists. The sacrifices have already been made, the times are changing. Have FAITH in your fellow human beings.
There are millions - billions - working for change, who will never stop.
I can understand. But theres still many good humans in this world amen...
@Ohio State Well, not being a Christian, I still respect your belief that you are being looked after, and so on, by your God, His son (depending, of course, on WHICH version of Christianity you are nestled into), the Holy Spirit, and angels - of course in many Christian cults, they actually believe that a blood sacrifice was made 2,000 years ago, and that to show our respect we should eat the flesh and drink the blood of god's 'son' who came to Earth to teach and save us from ourselves. They do this, of course, in front of an idol of that son, not even seeing the irony in any of it, or realizing that ALL of these rituals are from much, much older religions, and that the ceremonies they are engaged in ARE blood sacrifice rituals from Moloch, sacrifices to Zeus, and back, and back, and back - just as their 'flood' narrative is a complete copy of a work from Sumeria, thousands of years prior to Jesus' appearance.
I am glad that it comforts you and so many others, but telling me what I should put my faith in is a bit personal, and a bit self-righteous.
But that seems to go along with most flavors of Christian believers: the desire to tell everyone else "the good news," and the conviction that only YOUR faith, your God, your savior, is the *true savior,* and all others are false. That's fine - although I wouldn't presume to tell you what YOU should put your faith in (in a religious sense), I know that you can't help it.
Having "faith in humanity," however, is not the same concept - in any way - as the faith that you put into your religious belief. It is "faith" used in a broader context, and not a religious one: it simply means having confidence, or at least the hope, that because we have survived this long, we may well muddle our way through to not destroying ourselves or our planet with religious squabbles about 'My God is bigger than your god,' or 'whose country is the most powerful of all,' or "We deserve that land, because OUR God said it belongs to us, thousands of years ago - sorry, but you have to go - or our God says you (Palestinians, and others) can be killed by us if you try to fight back and say the land is yours," and so on.
Having 'faith in humanity' doesn't mean that I believe humanity is God, or that there is some intrinsic quality in humanity that should be worshiped.
It is the simple belief that humanity is getting better at exhibiting qualities like empathy, understanding, (although it often seems, because modern media gives only the most horrible "news," the most terrible events, and the worst qualities of humanity), that our basic nature, and our hatred of each other over religion, nationality, race, and on and on, is getting WORSE, not better, I have faith, or a simple belief, that we are making progress as a species, and belief that the worst among us are not always destined to rule over us.
That's all - I was attempting to reassure my fellow human, Gi Samurai, who seems so discouraged about our species. The comment was, of course, NOT addressed to you, even though you felt compelled to inject your own personal religious belief into it.
... lose hope with living. It's like, "what's the point!"... so very disturbing and sad.
I love this, and like the fact that you didn't just mention that people who discriminate could miss out on opportunities, but friendships.
I'm a black female who was looking to rent an apt. early 90s in Toronto, Canada. The owner of the house set up an appointment with his partner and told me if I wanted the place...it's mine. Went to see it and his partner gave me all this run around even AFTER I told him what was said to me. I called the gentleman I spoke with and got the place. I lived there for 2.5 yrs and NEVER ONCE missed a months rent and took care of the place as though I owned it! That's how I do things. My ONLY HOPE in that experience was that the other guy LEARNED something. That his judgement of ppl with colour is WRONG! Lessons in life eh? 😊
You guys are acting , but this is really happened to me in real life so many times, I can't even count !
"Exactly"
It happens to me too. It has my whole life. And I know complaining to certain people will just make them say I’m pulling the race card. Most people use buzz words instead of straight out language so they can deny. Cowardly
DeHart Family it happened to me too. How did it happen to you if I may ask
@@kleshayer3751 Well let me tell you! I am a black person with a European accent , and I usually called first , and made an appointment to see the place , but when I arrived at the seen, they would say, the apartment has been rented ! Well, if it was rented , then why set me up for an appointment ? The point was , I sounded white over the phone, but I was black in person ! That has happen with job applications, business opportunities , bank loans , and etc.
Peter Point- du jour this is illegal you could report them and expose hem on social media. And did you get mad when he said it’s rented? You said job applications and business opportunities could you talk more about that.
A wise man once said, don't judge a person by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. 👍
Wise men are NOT serial adulterers.
Yes, Dr. King said it, but today Blue states like California are so messed up that the opposite is happening. For instance, say there are 9 openings at a college. They want 2 whites, 2 blacks, 2 Asians, 2 Hispanics and 1 "other." It doesn't matter if 9 Asian students worked so hard and they all deserve to be admitted. They are not judged by the content of their character by their skin color. Dr. Walter Williams, "I'm glad that I received virtually all of my education before it became fashionable for white people to like black people."

My family is 3 weeks away from being homeless in Texas. 10 year perfect rental history, not one late pay, have steady income, no crimanal record in my 62 years. I want to leave apartment to rent house. Credit score not good due to years old debts which should've been removed over 7-10 years ago. Been turned down 12 times after submitting application fees. Time is running out. Beginning to think being black is the main factor but I will continue to trust God. I wish you continued success and good tenants.
@@shirleyallen7374 Although there is a bias based on ethnicity I would imagine the credit score is one of the main reasons you are having trouble finding a place to rent.

I am 58 and my very good friend is almost 80 and she is Black. I LOVE her dearly. We are so close we are sisters and have been since day one for 10 years.
You should speak out about racial injustice. We know how to speak out but the right side who can do something isn’t listening.
Don’t virtue signal. That came out of left center field. If color doesn’t matter right?
There's so many jerks like that out here sad and pitiful
A few years ago here in the UK, I joined members of my church and attended a Conference somewhere outside London. I made the booking over the phone and many people say I sound very posh over the phone and in person. I drove down with another black friend and her 2 teenage kids. Oh! Forgot to mention where the conference was held was in a predominantly white area and my Church at the time was predominantly white. But not racists - very middle and upper middle class. All bookings were made through a gentleman on the phone, whom we met at reception on arrival. The conference was fabulous the Bed and Breakfast was okay. There was a very 'nice' lady who kept hanging around. We would chat then go off for our conference in the Morning and get back after the last Prayer Session. I could not understand why she kept hanging around. Finally on our last day - still very sweet and polite she said she could tell we (like hundreds of others had attended the conference). I said yes. I said there was every likelihood the conference would be annual and we had loved staying there (even though we barely saw the hotel) and would most likely book the place again. She kept beating about the bush - by now I was thinking - I should be on road back to London - it took us hours to get there and would do so again. When you are a person of colour - you don't need to be told when you are experiencing racism - especially here in Britain where people are so polite. She kept fumbling - I looked at her and knew she did not want us back. By now I knew she was the owner anyway. I then began to think back to our conversation as to how 'astonished' she seemed about my accent and our behaviour as black people. I don't know what she expected. At the time I was in my late 30s and my friend of the same age was a mother! We seemed to not fit the stereotype of what she had imagined black people to be like and behave like. In the end when I realised this woman did not want my repeat business - I looked at her - and after all the fumbling and her resistance to my interest in possibly coming back. I looked at her kindly and said - what you are trying to say to me is - you don't want me back. She sighed with relief and nodded her head and looked at me with gratitude. I had said it for what she had tried to say for 15 minutes keeping me standing there. Then she spoke and said she did not want us back. She quickly added that we were incredibly wonderful guests but she just did not want 'us' back. We were the only blacks in the entire Bed and Breakfast which was full because of the conference. She finally felt the release to speak- all of this was being done politely - and she said even the conference was held again she would be happy but she just did not want us in her Hotel. I guess we stood out and she was embarrassed. She said she was happy us finding another hotel but please we were not to come back. I felt sorry for her and you could see how much she was struggling to get it out. I told her I understood- the look of relief on her face and what seemed like shame made me feel sorry for her. I assured her we would respect her wishes. She said she was happy with the conference coming back next year, but she didn't want us to please come back to her hotel. She suggested if we could find a place outside the area. (It was a plush and a nice part of Britain and VERY white). At one stage if we could drive from London for each session of the conference. I explained that would not be practical. The strange thing was I had just spent an entire weekend in God's presence so was filled with a peace that overcame me as she spoke to me. You could see the look of terrible guilt but when you are so ingrained in racism some of these people cannot help themselves. As I drove back to London, I told my astonished friend what had ensued. She could not believe it. However, I think God Whom we had spent the whole weekend worshipping observed in silence because mysteriously come the following year the Annual Conference was not held in that venue so that little town missed out completely on the much needed revenue- because the conference was held during the non tourist period when we know these hotels are desperate for people. She did not want 4 of us (although she was happy to have her hotel filled with people from the conference) and in the end she had no one from the conference the following year. Whatever may have happened - I took it as Divine Judgement. God fighting for His kids. If you are not happy to have 4 of my kids because of the colour of their skin, but you are happy to have all the other posh white people (because people from that church are very posh, but incredibly Godly, God fearing and welcome all races) - Who are also my kids - then in that case you would have none! It is amazing how God fights His children's battles. For those wondering - I told no one back at Church or people at the conference what had happened - neither did of friend. I wondered how that lady felt. She sat waiting confidently for bookings to begin and not one phone call would have come through for that conference. What a huge loss of revenue - but God moved and fought our battles for us. Even as I type this - I am in awe. I believe if she had not done what she did - (picking out the only black people in her hotel that weekend and asking us not to come back to her hotel or even suggesting we find a hotel in a different vicinity. But as long as it was not near her or local) - her hotel would have been packed out the following year. If you push God's people out, because of the colour of their skin hoping to keep your hotel white, he will ensure He pushes out the very people you hope to benefit from and would make sure you don't make a penny from them either. He protects His own!
What a wonderful testimony. Very encouraging. As someone who has experienced bad treatment in the UK, it always made me wonder if there are ever any repercussions for this kind of bad behaviour. Now I know that they are.
Black Dollars are STRONG and spend just like green dollars 👍🏿✝️📖💒⛪🙏🏾😁
EVERYBODY spends green dollars, lol.
@@hotdrumchick damn stfu y’all take offense to everything damn
@@hotdrumchick then tell that to the white people that’s constantly turning away the black folks “green dollars” 🙄 tf
@@hotdrumchick Amen to that!
As George Jefferson once said to Archie Bunker about a white bartender: "That bartender is willing to call me 'sir' because if you have enough green in your pocket, then black becomes his favorite color."
This is something that's been going on for centuries it don't just go by renting or buying a home it goes by being employed in the type of job that you're looking for discrimination is something that it's been alive for so long that no one knows what the truth is they've lived it all their lives and they still living today so when will they change because the older you are you know wrong from right it don't take two wrongs to make a right.
It just go on and on “SpotemGottem”
Racism exists only in the minds of those who give it power
@@jimibones178 please go tell that to someone who is stupid. I guess we imagined seeing that white cop on George Floyds neck it was a figment of the worlds imagination?
@@happybirthday8803 he means if you ignore all the discrimination it'll magically disappear like it never existed. Sure you didn't get multiple jobs or that apartment/house but you gotta pick yourself up by your boot straps and keep it pushing despite the discrimination.......like the discrimination isn't stopping you from progressing 🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣 ppl that don't go through discrimination and racism always telling ppl who have to go through it how to feel and it doesn't exist.
@@babyshaq6455 sure you did not get multiple jobs and that house/ apartment sounds about white, I ain’t worried white Americans should be very afraid the roosters have came home to crow. Hallelujah.... to all my ancestors and black brother and sisters babies children especially Emmet Till justice is around the corner.
I have been so Blessed to love all people and this scenario breaks my heart
Happened to me Back in Columbus, Georgia some time ago. Was looking for an apartment and saw an add in the local paper. Called the landlady and was informed it was available. Got there 10 minutes later. When she opened her door and saw me, she promptly told me it was rented already. My first experience of racial prejudice.
That was disheartening
That was wonderful, that shows don't discriminate against anyone you'll never know who that person might be.
Interesting comment!
Truth
Its fake. This whole video is division spreading click bait.
@@sabrinakingsley798 it's the sad reality that black people experience. The only thing that would cause division is invalidating truth/facts. Denying something does not help. Being a part of the solution does.
@@debbiebramwell Many people in this video's comments would disagree with you, if you don't ignore opinions that differ from yours. Also, I'm black and an immigrant, I'm pretty sure I know what black people experience.
Don't assume you know someone until you educate yourself about who you are dealing with
RACIST a*s COW
Amen👍🏾!!
YOUR NOT A RACIST ASS COW
@Chris K I still haven't met a black person who hates all white people yet
Absolutely but unfortunately most people prefer to base themselves on stereotypes and misconceptions.
I Applaud This Awesome Message and Display.
Great Moral and Video 😍 Great Work to those people who made it 👍
Funny how he said it is not company policy. Considering how many times this happens
No he did this on his own that was his "company policy"
That's why the owner calling him there to let him see for him self pay attention
Exactly!!!👀
Great Point. Adding to that, these companies, across the board, need to really know exactly what type of people they are putting in these positions! If not, things like this will continue.
Is 2021and is still happening as they say is our company policy
It was like that in Chicago, North side, in the 90s. I got smart and used White Apartment hunters to secure a lease without 1st meeting the owners. They couldn't back out, once the lease was drawn, after meeting me. Ha ha.
Thomas Brown - Whatever it takes for these a$$hats! Hahaha! Good on you!
Thomas Brown. Excellent! I love that.
Still happens in MD & DC
What's messed up,Thomas is that you had to do that in the first place. :( I'm a real estate agent and I give my piece of mind to these elitists agents I come across. If I even see the look on their face, I call them out. love ya, be well.
Haha, I did the same in 1986 to get my apartment after being rejected when I showed up, contacted Apartment Finders a white man inquired for me and when they say yes we have, I walked in, she looked embarrassed and I signed the lease. Then again in 1990's to by the house we still live in today, was told bidding closed, of course I did not believe her, called Latter and Blum agent went over there bidding was not closed, I put in my bid and won it. Bless GOD, Thank GOD we never missed a house note.
Thanks for educating someone people. Be blessed
True... thank you for your good massage....
Thank you for sharing this video. My hubby and I live in Long Beach, CA in a 48 unit development where there's not a lot of black people living here or the surrounding area. We bought our home 15 years ago when they were just built. I've never lived in an area where the neighbors look away to avoid saying hello to you. Mu hubby calls them "Bird Watchers" because they look up in the sky (or away like they're looking for something) when we drive by when the normal thing to do is to look at who's driving by. I would wave just to see if I could "kill them with kindness" and nope, they look right through me. Most of the people here are 2nd owners of these homes and they act the same way. I am such a happy, fun-filled & lovable person and it just breaks my heart that people act that way. I feel like if my house was on fire, I wouldn't even feel comfortable going to knock on their door to seek help. But I never stop praying for our community to become more neighborly.
I’m not black. I’m Asian American and this has happened to me also. It’s not funny. I got so tire of it I decided to buy a house instead of renting it.
Hey what happened to you? I’ve had some instances also
The system is made up of five races. The Caucasian, the Blacks, the lndians, the Spanish and the Asians. Asian Americans, are not seen as cacausians. Besides that ,most. people are multi-racial. I am a Jamaican and, Jamaica is one of the most racially stratified countries. Therefore,our motto is "Out of many we are one people".🇯🇲
So sorry this is happening i hope your doing good now i know i dont know you but people are insecure and then base one bad experience and let that speak of an entire culture rather then accepting there is good people in every culture an apple is an apple even withna different skin colour. Just like there is different recipes for the same dish but each recipe is good in its own way. We have to be the change we want to see and educate others and be the example of how we want to be treated. People are stuck in the past and close minded. I was taught to only see people as equal and that it shouldn't matter what their culture or race is. I go by the character of a person and how they treat me that determines if i like someone or not not by their culture it would be boring if we were all the same. There are plenty if nice people all over some of my favourite food is from different cultures which i love food especially butter chicken and mexican food with lots of cheese one track mind getting off track. I am hungry now LOL I can assure you there is nothing wrong with you your no different then me or anyone else and you deserve the same respect i hope things turn out positive for you. And also love has no colour
I'm 3'2 to Inches. I can't even ring the doorbell to make my presence known. Now that's discrimination right there 🤬
😂 never thought about this
@@adictiveadictive haha
Wow! Sameer Bhavnani, thank you so much for this; I loved it, well done!
My girlfriend use to do rent homes out like this. She did have a guy who looked like he couldn't afford it. Know what she did, showed him the house anyway. A week later he moved in. It's not that difficult people.
I was born and raised in the hood and I got myself out of it. Just because we grew up in a tough neighborhood doesn't mean we're ghetto or bad people. Judging a book by it's cover makes you the problem and it'll eat you up. Stay positive and live your life the best you can💯
True
Agreed. Being *in* the hood and being *of* the hood are two different things.
Very well said. Love your comment.
Yes you are absolutely right I agree with you 100%
Colorism thats not fair .
Luck the owner is black .
This open my eyes and knowledge to you live you learn.........
People like you doing greatest service to Humanity .May your tribe spread in Earth.Thank you ,Thank you again.👍👍👍
Bravo! This certainly tells a story that needs to be told!
"Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment." John 7:24. Sameer, you introduced a nice show. Great God is our ultimate judge, and He will judge us honestly and fairly. That you can be sure.
And He will judge us by the way we’ve judged others!
Stick your Bible up your jacksy
This needs to be shared more. Is only gotten worse with the pandemic.
It’s just your imagination and depression
@@abgr5747
Depression and hallucinations do not cause rampant racism. It is taught.

It has gotten worse since trump! I wish he could have been as wise and sagacious as Jacinda Ardern of New Zealand. I love her, the perfect leader!
trump is maladjusted, and his development was arrested at the age of ten!! Now America and the world can erase the orange stain that was the trump error!! 😒

How could someone dislike videos such as these? These are just some of the unfortunate things happening in our society which needs to be eradicated.

Years ago I will have the secretary call and make the appointment, I will show up and they will not answer, even though I can hear them come to the door or they will say it was no longer available, but half hour ago it was “oh you can come it is still available’ . Motivates you to buy your own property.
We should be property owners. This evil is provoking us to rise...
You’re making things up, that never happened....
"wow you have a good credit score"
"well i try"
that made me smile and cry
I caught that too, like "Really, YOU have a good credit score."
Since I have never once used a credit card I wonder what my credit score is.
People who don't use credit still exist. I'm one of them.
I met a soldier once. He said he avoids being in uniform as much as possible because he gets everything free for being in the US Army. He said so much privilege makes him uncomfortable. I said exactly. I know the feeling. I thank GOD for making me intelligent and not a discriminating person.
I worked for H.O.M.E. Home Opportunities Made Equal as a Housing Detective where I met with owners and property managers to pose as possible renter for their homes. Oh, I was treated as a "bad black woman" with many of those residences. I was dressed up, came with references and all. Over the phone I speak in a way where they cannot tell my race.
They would look me up and down and said they think they are going to give it to the person before me (a month later still for rent) or that the owner no longer wants to rent it (rental sign stayed up), but we just spoke over the phone 20 minutes before I arrived.
Here is the flip side. While I was mowing my lawn, my neighborhood is urban, albeit affluent (white), a car pulled over and asked if I would come over to mow their lawn a couple of blocks away. This has happened to me a couple other times; while raking the leaves and once while blowing the snow.
You couldn't possibly live there!
@@DeeDee-hx1km Of course I couldn't. I must me the grounds keeper.
@@albertgary7281 so sad, but that’s the thinking of many, thanks God not all.

This is exactly what is happening to us when we can pay the rent and we can be very quiet and clean.
Loving the messages on this channel. Spreading: *Love, Light, Harmony and Peace* ❤

I'm glad someone is trying to spread Love, and peace. Cause reading most of these comments there is to much hate out there. Also a lot of crazy.
Thank you Sameer...
I remember going to an agency for a job decades ago and I heard the woman say, "There is one thing I must tell you, she is black." He asked to see me and I got the job.
Me too! I often got the job cause I was good & also probably help fill a "Company Quota"...sigh
I went to Agency also to look for a job and I was told that I was too old (I was in my late 30’s) From that time I stopped looking for a job. Instead I had my own agency where I employee people myself. When life gives you a lemon, make lemonade.
Never judge a person by their skin, appearance, and dressing because you never know who they turn out to be👌 Everyone deserve to be treated with the respect that you would want people to treat you😊
Most don't get respect that's why they judge others
Yes, I I agree that is the golden rule .
If a white man wants to rent his property to white man only - then he's entitled to his wishes.
Does anyone ask a Black property owner- why he rents his property to a Black ??

Powerful eye opener. Keep up with the good work
This is the best example of what i always say about employees . Be very careful of how you talk to people & how you treat people at work . You never know who you're being nasty too & who you're treating wrong . The owner could come at anytime to check up on their business . I don't care what kind of person you really are, what your thoughts, beliefs, religions, dislikes are, or who & what you hate . When you're at work... You respect people, be nice, be fair, be good to them, & you show love ! Even if you have to be phoney, you do it . It doesn't make sense to have a job or own a business... If you're gonna be a mean, nasty, & evil person to the customers & clients .
So true!! You said a mouthful!
@@ladymarmalade9941 yes... 😃😃😃
Like I always said to my son when he was a kid. If someone looks different to you what do you think you look like to them. It's a two way street. We are all a part of this world. We are all in the same boat! The race that matters? The HUMAN RACE!!!!
Love the man at the end who says racial discrimination is the "stupidest". How incredibly true!!
Thank you soooo much for that pointed, factual yet upbuilding scenario that happens all too often.
We need more tidbits like this to single out the real issuues involving skin color , racism in this country and how it diminishes and negatively impacts everyone and everything in our society. . Keep up the good work of exposing and replenishing..God bless you.

This happens all the time. As a puerto rican my grandson who is 13 now has been bullied since he was in kindergarten, now in high-school, the same. Someone in the 10th grade recently punched him he didn't strike back, kids took videos and the school nor the police did anything. My town its very prejudice. They call him brown and many other things. Racist will go on until Jesus returns. It is horrible and it hurts.
Actually, it'll go on until they get tired of being held accountable -- like suing the 10th grader who hit your grandson. It's how America stopped the KKK from lynching -- suing then in court and seizing their properties to pay restitution after the settlements.
Thank you BillyBob.
Happens everyday. I saw it firsthand with my mom’s boyfriend in the 70s. White manager refused to rent to him in my presence. She never ran any checks. Boyfriend owned his own business and was prosperous. Mom was a PhD college professor. And it still happens 40 years later.

Years ago one of our bishops decided to test how members acted toward the homeless, color and what not. He disguised himself as a filthy hobo and sat outside the door. Folks passed by as if he did not exist and turned up their noses. When they learned he was one of our bishops from another church branch "they were done"
I heard a story like this and the pastor after worship was said and done came in and only preach Matthew 25. That day the congregation went home feeling guilty.
Be not forgetful to entertain strangers because men have entertained angels unaware.

I’ve experienced this trying to rent in College Station when I was a PhD student at Texas A&M. The landlord basically turned me around when he realized I was black and said someone had just leased the home. I know that was a lie because he wouldn’t have confirmed the appointment for me to do a walk through.

Happened to me years ago in Riverdale New York. Also, some areas in Long Island ,the realtors will not even show you an apartment if you are a Black person. They will make excuses and claim the place is already been sold or they have an accepted offer. Sadly, 2021 and this is still happening in New York☹️
