If Condi had responded to the rude clerk politely but firmly I'm quite sure that wouldn't have "brought out the black" in this author's eyes. It wasn't standing up for herself because of possible discrimination - it was the fact she did it with sass. I can imagine this author gleefully hoping Condi pulled a neck roll and a finger snap too. amen cece – sorry but shopping while black doesn’t make the title of this story any less offensive to me.

We call her a sellout for that. Way to show our girls which role to emulate.<br/>CeCe Funny that we would think Condi “tearing someone to shreds” represents her Blackness more than being an Ivy League graduate and professor and a Black woman in the highest power position in politics.

What if it was another black woman? We don't know. And no, as a black woman, I can't relate to Condi on this. But as a professional who paid for two degrees by working retail, I feel for the woman behind the counter. Where does it say that the woman helping her was white?! What if it was another black woman?

Sorry Brother Bruce, from the moment I read this, I knew what this was about: SWB.

Shopping While Black

It takes many forms, but, one form in particular if you’re a Black woman in a ‘Chi Chi’ Boutique – White Girls Making Mininum Wage thinking that they can flatout disrespect you.

Like I said, there’s not a Black woman alive that can’t relate to this story.
