‘Shopping while BLACK’ is this a myth or do #brown and #black people get #racially profiled whilst #shopping have you ever suffered this and made to feel this way? Or does it not exist ? This happened to me when a #racist #security guard working for @totalsecurityservicesltd @thefoodwarehouseuk
"Shopping while black" involves a black person being followed around or closely monitored by a clerk or guard who suspects they may steal, but it can also involve being denied store access, being refused service, use of ethnic slurs, being searched, being asked for extra forms of identification, having purchases limited, being required to have a higher credit limit than other customers, being charged a higher price, or being asked more rigorous questions on applications.[1] It could also mean a request for any item the store actually carries being denied with the store attendant claiming that the item does not exist or is not in stock. This can be the result of store policy, or individual employee prejudice.[2] Consumer racial profiling occurs in many retail environments including grocery stores, clothing shops, department stores and office supply shops, and companies accused of consumer racial profiling have included Eddie Bauer, Office Max, Walmart, Sears, Dillard's, Macy's and Home Depot.[1]
Shopping while black is sometimes also called "shopping while black or brown", but researchers say black people are the most frequently targeted.[further explanation needed][citation needed]
Shopping while black has been extensively covered by American news media, including a hidden camera ABC News special in which actors posing as store staff harassed black customers to see how other shoppers would respond,[3] and a Soledad O'Brien segment called "Shopping While Black", part of a CNN special on being black in America.[4] It is usually assumed to occur mainly in the United States, but has also been reported in the United Kingdom, Canada, Switzerland, and the Netherlands.[5][6][7]
