| The following scene took place on a BA flight between Johannesburg and
London .
This is a true story.
A White woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a Black man.
Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess. "Madam, what
is the matter," the Hostess asked. "You obviously do not see it then?"
she responded. "You placed me next to a Black man. I do not agree to
sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative seat."
"Be calm please, the Hostess replied. "Almost all the seats on this flight
are taken. I will go to see if another seat is available." The Hostess went
away and came back a few minutes later. "Madam, just as I thought,
there are no other available seats in Economy class. I spoke to the
Captain and he informed me that there are also no seats in the
Business class. All the same, we still have one seat in First class."
Before the woman could reply, the Hostess continued:
"It is unusual for our company to permit someone from
Economy class to sit in First class. However, given the
circumstances, the Captain feels that it would be scandalous
to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting."
She turned to the Black man and said, "Therefore,
Sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat
awaits you in First class."
At that moment, the other passengers who were
shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.
If you are against Racism, please send this message to all your friends.
Please do not delete it without sending it to at least one person.

| That is a wonderful story. The woman was racist and I am glad the stewardness made her look stupid. | |
