For once I can say that I was not the one touched or being asked to be touched (if that makes sense).
My customer/friend came running into a quiet laundromat saying "Dude, a black girl just asked me if she could touch me?" My reply was "you have to be kidding me"... She wasn't. A black girl wanted to touch my friend because she had hips. Apparently the black girl has never seen a white girl with hips. -shakes head- My customer/friend kept telling her "no" and after she got her food from next door, that is when she entered my laundromat. My laundromat can now be categorized in the safe zone pit stop..
After 10 minutes of entering my laundromat, we hear "heeey there she is yoo, yooo mah friend is fascinated by yah yooooooo" and then you hear "fuck that white bitch yoooo" as they are looking through the storefront window. I told my customer/friend "im going to get shot because of you." We laughed. The people were out there for a good two minutes. All we kept hearing was "bitch" and "yooooo", oh and "bitch". Eventually they left and after 15 minutes my customer/friend ran home.
Now, if I were to ask that lady "can I touch you?" I would be labeled as a racist...
After my customer/friend left, I laughed.
Other than that, it was surprisingly a quiet day. People knew what they were doing!

Odd and interesting. That is tru, u would b the racist. Funnier so i once was on a bus and this black dude was tellin these kids things and saying "is that racist" like trying to teach them about racism and stuff i guess. He looked over to me and my bf (two very white ppl) and said "now is that racist". It was an interesting bus trip through washington heights.
