On an August day in New York City, Shoshana B. Roberts was harassed 108 times by her definition.
The whole thing was caught on video by Hollaback, an anti-street harassment advocacy group, and edited into a two-minute public service announcement. Clad in jeans and a black T-shirt, Roberts walked around New York for 10 hours following filmmaker Rob Bliss, who had a camera hidden in his backpack.
One man says Hello, good morning, then follows Roberts for five minutes. Another says, Whats up girl? How you doin? When she doesnt respond he reprimands her: Somebodys acknowledging you for being beautiful.
It goes on.

So, lessee: we have a young woman walking through a highly ethnic part of town wearing very tight pants and a close-fitting top and she doesn't expect certain ethnic sorts to act the way they always do?
What point are we supposed to derive from this? If she wore a loose-fitting muumuu do you really think there would have been that much attention?
C'mon. Welcome to today's "diverse" America.

Thanks but I was too late, and the intro was an advert for Goldman Sachs, LOL.

Now I live in Wyoming where there's very little 'diversity' to worry about. Here the men know not to speak to women like that (partly because they know a lot of us are armed!) Sounds like Paradise!

Damned Amish creeps again!
When will they learn this type of behavior is unacceptable?

The behavior displayed used to be known as "boorish."
Now it's an accepted, non-monetary form of slavery reparations - and white women are supposed to just shut up and take it.

Given the current width of her hips and the size of her a$$, it won’t be long.

This video was obviously staged as a means of providing a young “actress” a foot in the door of the entertainment industry. It’ll probably work, too - hope she paid attention in those pole dancing classes.

I run Pale Moon browser with enough add-ons dealing with privacy that I don’t see the advertisements on YouTube videos for some reason. Think it is the adblock edge or Flashblock that cuts the advertisements out.
