... and that’s not illegal?

Imagine if some company charged blacks 45% more for something because they were black.

When I was a kid the black kids stole our bikes.

So how will a former slave almost two hundred years old ride one?

Sounds discriminatory to me.

How do they prove “blackness”? What if I say my great great grandfather was half black?

In other words, do they give the discount to anyone who asks for it?

This is a violation of Federal and I’m sure State and likely City laws as well.

Public Accommodations Law violation.

You obviously cannot price products based on race.

Ladies don't have to pay a cover charge and blacks get their bicycles at half price!

Very nice.

Ok. If you’re in the market for a Rivendell bike (are they any good?), I’ll volunteer as a straw buyer for a small cut kickback. My question is, do I need blackface, or can I just self-identify?

I'd be curious to see how many blacks take advantage of the deal - before and after.

Personally, I would be offended at the offer.

So show up with some Mexican friends and some Native American friends and demand these idiots give them the discount too and explain how Blacks are more deserving. Be sure to record it; it’ll be a hoot! :)

Are there rules that you actually have to be black or can you just identify as black?

What happens when the white customers feel screwed amd go elsewhere with their business?

If you are not 100% black, is the discount proportional to a person’s racial make up?

This is good news for me as I recently began identifying as a black lesbian.
