[Redeemed-One30103]

I disagree with Rhonda’s reply that in the African American culture, it is considered disrespecful to look directly into the eyes of a person who is older or who is in authority. Perhaps that was taught in Rhonda’s home, but it is not taught throughout our culture. What Ken observed in some African American grocery store clerks is what I have observed in both races. Perhaps whites do it to blacks because they don’t consider us worthy of their attention. Some do not even acknowledge my presence except to take my money. Ken, if you’re honest, I’m sure your observation is not peculiar to just African Americans.
