Racism

I chose a story i can relate to, which would be the African American's experience when he went into a store. He bought a shirt and while walking out a security officer searched him. My experience didn't quite happen like this but it was somewhat familiar. When i went to a store with a bunch of my friends i noticed this one person being around us in different locations. Once we got what we had to buy and payed for it at the door that same guy stoped us and asked if he can see our purse. Once he was done searching he let us go. I guess he thought we were going to steal something. This guys experience made him feel down. This made him feel like this because he was thought of a thief only because he was black.
