feature: white couple to black family: “my ancestors owned your ass”

In a brazen display of casual racism, a white couple in San Antonio, TX. was confronted by a family of black churchgoers during a heated exchange at a restaurant after the white couple spoke rudely to some of the wait staff.

The interaction was recorded by the family’s 15-year-old daughter. See it down below.
