2015 to 2017. I worked there which I arrived at Louisville airport and patiently waited for a taxi, they ignored me. My co worker picked me up, I told him what happen. He said Frank your Dark skin out here your Black. Thank working in Jeffersonvill Indiana and Shepardvill Kentucky the police pulled me over 24/7 and they said, you are a N word out here. Racism is alive and well. California
