Edit: Not the last time, but one of the most memorable...
In 2006, I was working for a brokerage and a customer (a daytrader) tried to place a trade but he couldn't because he didn't have the buying power due to a margin call on his account. He then told someone offline that "this stupid n****r told me I don't have the equity to place this trade" and hung up before I could say something.
Well because I was relatively new, from time to time, a principal would listen to calls for any potential trades I'd place and he happened to be listening on this call. Later that day, he called me to his office and explained that he called the customer back to inform him that the company was closing out his account due to abuse and liquidating his shares to meet the call, pretty big loss for the client potentially. The principal told me the client was apologizing saying that he was stressed from trading losses and begging him not to close it because he'll lose trading days etc.
Per NASD rules at the time,a broker-dealer could liquidate shares at any time to meet a call (not sure if FINRA kept this rule). Most firms will give a client three days to meet it by selling their own stock or wiring in money. If they don't the liquidation department will sell any shares in your account they deem acceptable. Because the shares were purchased on margin, the shares replenish the cash at a $0.50/dollar rate. The customer call was for 35k, so the department sold about 70k in stock to meet the call. Bigot took a huge L on that one... -
When i log on to the ic

Was living in NW GA, and had a couple white boys in a pickup truck with a confederate flag, yell out ni**er as they passed by. I had to move away from up there quick!
Had an Arabic dude yell out I was a dark monkey about 7/8 months ago. Road rage incident where I wouldn't let him get in front of me as he was trying to get over. Should've waited his ass at the back of the line instead of driving up trying to cut folks. -
2 hours ago. I was stopped by two black cops for walking in the street
-
This black dude at subway didn't say have a nice day to me after I paid for my sub the other day.

Maybe Im paranoid but I feel like some racist ? happens to me everyday lol
I did fight this big ass white boy for saying ? a million times in 2014 tho. Dude called me racist because I aint want him to say that ? lol I punched that cracka dead in his ? -
At my job last year around Christmas, they sent a mass email telling people to be considerate using the microwave and the kitchen stinking cause I was heating up my chitlins. I filed a complaint.

Oh I forgot. 2015 I had walked into the club, I wasnt even in that ? not one minute when this white girl walked by me and touched my ? .
I said something to her like "you just gonna grab my ? and not introduce yourself". A split second later her homegirl called me a ? with the quickness. She replied with '? ' so quick that I feel like she had been waiting all day to call a Black person a ? .
Yall know that feeling you have of tension in your body until you ? your neck and then suddenly feel more relaxed? Thats how relaxed that hoe looked when she called me a ? . Like it was therapeutic for her.
I proceeded to cuss them lil hoes out while everybody lookin at me like Im the one who trippin smh -

They shoulda filed a complaint on you for heating up those stank ass chitlins in the first place -
I moved to a backwards area of nh so I encounter ? regularly. I normally dress in dress shirt/slacks/shoes bottom line i look pretty damn professional every day and I wear my company's badge around my neck.
1. Today. Had old white woman manager from a gas station watching me as if I was looking to steal something. As I was leaving, she approached the cashier who helped me and I overheard her say something about watching and whatnot.
2. When I go to the gym. ? feel like I'm some part of an exhibition. Very few minorities go to my gym.
3. only Spanish dude in probably a two block radius.
4. I'm the only Spanish person and closest thing to black at my company. No problems there though, that I'm aware.
5. Go to stores or even to get coffee, I get the up and down looks like trying to figure out what I am or something. Or you get the people watching you from a distance or keep turning around while in line.
6. I don't be feeling white chicks like I feel other chicks. When I don't pay them attention, ? can turn to scorn or hate. I never understood clearly why, like I'm supposed to act like I'm desperate or something.
Prejudice and racism don't have to be heard or spoken to be felt or observed. ? annoying. I'm looking to move out eventually. What do yall think? -
Just a few hours ago....
"I'm sorry we just rented that out today"
If I ride past that ? tomorrow i'm kickin the sign over. -

fukking Zoll police came thru ..check my passprt, visa and had the dog sniff my luggage an backpack. then always got the nerve to say just a random check but they always select me when I coming back.
? ? or should I say ? -
Being white in AZ is a funny thing. Like, I experience it but it's on no level close to the overt level I see other races speak/treat one another.
To answer the question tho, about a month ago. Mexicans out here can be ruthless. -

Nope. Even in the bigger cities like Seoul and Busan it's common. It's mostly from old people though. The younger generation are friendlier.
