I hesitated to even post this but I do believe there are naive people out there that think racism isn't alive and well.
So this morning I went to get an x-ray at a radiological place. There was an elderly white woman waiting before me. The x-ray tech (with brown skin) came out to get her and she put up a big fuss and said she wanted someone else. When they asked her why, she just said get me someone else. She yammered a bit and then finally came up with that she didn't want to undress in front of a man. So they told her a woman tech would arrive in 10 mins or so. Okay, everything good. Woman tech arrives (brown skin as well) and calls the woman back. Woman says, oh all of a sudden I don't feel well...I think I will have to reschedule. My eyebrows were raised and the woman gets all defensive and stutters to me that she really doesn't feel well and I shouldn't be judging her with my eyes. I said okay lady, hope you feel better. (Guilty much?) Both techs were pretty upset.
