New York activist Tamika Mallory says she was booted from an American Airlines flight in Miami after a pilot inserted himself into a dispute over her seat assignment.
Mallory, a co-chair of the Womens March on Washington, was traveling home to New York when the pilot followed her to scold her over an argument she had with a gate agent.
He then had her summoned from her seat and kicked off the flight, she told the Daily News.
It definitely was white male aggression. I was singled out, I was disrespected, and he was trying to intimidate me. I was discriminated against, she said.

The lesson for her is:
"An Airplane is not Burger King, you do not get it your way."
Put her a$$ on the “No Fly” list.....
“White male aggression”. Start worrying about black male aggression. Ooo, and also black female aggression. I see tons of that.
“disrespected” - no such word. I Hate These Word Crimes.
why didn’t this tard just take a knee?
The pilot has ultimate authority to throw ANYONE off the flight.
It’s a lot better to do it on the ground before the flight is airborne.
White male aggression—————aaaaarrrrggggg !!!!!
.
Oh, I can just imagine the screeching, “hell no’s” and finger-waving this sister was putting on display at this encounter
Kind of a shame he didn’t wait.
I dunno guys... I've got to go with 'not guilty.'
When pilots have “white male aggression” it’s laser guided dumb ass!
I don’t know. I can see her morphing into Aunt Esther in just a few short years....
Anyone who says, I began to weep, isnt crying tears of sadness or remorse.
We need a second opinion.
Laz?
Lady, you have to behave yourself on an airplane. The pilot would have treated a white person, man or woman, the same way.
As soon as I saw her name, I kind of figured what this would be all about.
Now how did I know she was black without seeing her picture.
How obnoxious would she have had to be, before a white pilot, KNOWING the level of heat he was going to get for kicking a black woman off, took the step of having her removed?
Yea but you ain’t seen her without her wig-hat.
“when the pilot followed her to scold her over an argument she had with a gate agent.”

It must have been quite an argument; the gate agent probably talked to the pilot, or he saw what was happening. For this to have happened, as I said, it must have been quite the event. Maybe other passengers were talking about it.
Whatever it was, it wasn’t racism.
