See the article then offer an experience you may have had:

The Obamas: How We Deal with Our Own Racist Experiences - Ferguson, politics, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama : People.com

When I was working I used to fly a lot; like a million miler frequent flier!!! For comfort I always wore slacks or even jeans and always a sport jacket...mostly a navy blue blazer like everybody has. I also has a red blazer that I wore on ocassion for a change of pace. ALMOST everytime I wore that red blazer AND if I happened to be in an American Airlines terminal or concourse I would be stopped and asked a question as the person AUTOMATICALLY assumed I was an AA employee....that also wore red sport jackets.

So with that in mind I say so what to the article above that in my opinion is in poor taste (I don't care WHO they are) it does nothing but keep the race card highly visible and active.

How about your experience?
