Walmart is the only institution in America that has successfully made the Civil Right's angle of color-blind consumerism in a brutal capitalist society come true.
It has created a space where racist rednecks and illegal Mexican immigrants can shop on the same aisle without any beef...well that is until yesterday.
In South Jersey, an identified male announced on the Walmart speaker for "All black people to please leave the store." Blacks and whites alike were dumb-founded between their perusals of bad cotton drawers and lead-based spoons for overseas. Although video tapes are being studied by authorities, no one has been pointed out. Click here for story.
I really love this incident because it illuminates the pockets, no acres of KKK-esk white counties in Jersey, PA, and NY that are as racist as their southern cousins. Then it shows the historical fact that in hard times, racist attacks increase, especially against white-on-non-white.
No does this stop the typical black, Latino or Asian customer. Oh hell naw, they just kept the cart pushing. I swear there is something in the music that is messing with our heads every time we step into that monstrosity.

2 ish talking intellectuals holla at a sista:
This incident is clearly appalling and uncalled for. I hope law enforcement finds the person who made the announcement and punishes them to the fullest extent of the law.
There are crackers everywhere....we already knew that though.
