国际中心综合外电报导

来自波多黎各的女子贝穆德斯(Lennys Bermudez)20日前往美国亚利桑那州1间餐厅,她礼貌询问一位白人妇女,她是否可以坐在旁边的位置。对方则是满脸不屑并回呛「我有选择吗」,之后甚至还说希望整个国家都是白人,不想要贝穆德斯靠近。

白人女子穿着黑色外套,坐在位子上阅读文件。当时贝穆德斯走入餐厅内,见到对方旁边刚好有空位,她便客气询问她能否坐在旁边,没想到妇女态度相当恶劣,她便决定先录影自保,随后上传脸书并写道「你们接下来看到的东西让我无语」。

发现对方在拍摄,白人女子也完全没在怕,甚至嚣张说出希望国家都能是白人,有一天贝穆德斯终将会被淘汰,她喜欢同样肤色的人坐在旁边,而不是其他种族的人。贝穆德斯则在影片中无奈表示,「所以这女人告诉我,她不想要我在旁边,因为我不是白人。天阿,这个世界怎么了?」

贝穆德斯透过脸书发声,她讨厌将现今的政治情势归咎于某人离谱的行为,但她对这次的经历感到震惊,「我注意到她在认真阅读文件,不想被打扰,所以我只是单纯询问『你介意我在旁边吗』,事情便开始变得疯狂。」

餐厅经理得知冲突发生后,先要求妇女离开,后来又护送贝穆德斯出去取车,确保她的安全。贝穆德斯事后受访时称,她并没有报警,但当下她非常失望与害怕,尽管录影已开始,白人女子却依旧对自己的看法充满强烈自信。

身为波多黎各人,贝穆德斯以她的身分为傲,虽然种族主义带来的伤痕已经扎根,她仍同时是充满荣耀的美国人。事实上,这并非她首次面临歧视,「偶尔我会看到一些细微又不言而喻的动作人们见到我后,会把钱包收起来或锁上门。」

So this happened today. I hate to say the political climate is to blame for someone’s outrageous behavior, but I was visibly shaken today with this exchange. I simply asked the woman if I could sit down next to her while I waited for the car to charge. I noticed she was attentively reading her papers and wanted to be respectful and not interrupt. I asked, “ Would you mind if I sit next to you?” Seems pretty simple. That is when things got crazy!! Her reply, “Do I have a choice?” I was so shocked, I asked her to repeat it so I could see her face. Something in me said I should record it, too. Thank God I did! What you see next left me speechless... “You will be wiped out...trust me.” That was a threat! Fast forward...she was asked to leave the restaurant. The manager of the store that kicked her out also walked me to my car for safety. I know that the scars of racism run deep in this great country I love. Being Puerto Rican, I am a proud American ...and equally proud Puerto Rican . This lady was lucky my PR-ness didn’t come out!! I wish for a world for my children and my children’s children’s to never worry about this stuff...but then again, we are who we are. (For licensing or usage, contact licensing @ViralHog.com)
