野豬騎士來囉!
今天要介紹的不是野豬騎士,而是全世界每天都在上演的種族歧視。

沃克(Emmit Walker)是一名美國音樂公司主管,他打算飛往多明尼加慶祝他的37歲生日。然而卻在排隊等候登機時,發生了令他不感置信的事情。
一名白人女子從她身後對他說:「不好意思,我想你排錯地方了,你應該先讓我們過的,這邊是排優先登機的入口。」
沃克有點疑惑的說:「優先登機是給頭等艙的對吧?」
白人女子:「是的,很抱歉等我們登機後,機組人員會再通知經濟艙登機的。」
發現對方好像誤會了什麼,於是沃克拿出頭等艙的登機證給她看,並說道:「我想我排這邊是對的,而且我排很久了,妳應該排我後面沒錯。」沒想到白人女子沒有要退回到後面的意思,還對朋友說:「他應該是憑軍人或什麼優惠才能搭頭等艙的,不像我們有好好付錢的,他應該有自覺一點吧。」

這位小姐妳有事嗎?也太瞧不起人了吧!
換作是戰哥可能早就暴怒了,但沃克聽了不僅沒有森77,還神回一句:「我沒有軍人那麼偉大,我只是個有錢的黑人。」話才講完就讓旁邊的許多乘客拍手叫好,我想那位白人女子的臉當下應該很腫吧。
沃克將這段對話po在FB,並貼上他和那位女子的照片,引起網友熱烈的迴響,短短一個禮拜就換來26萬次的分享,但事後沃克並沒有感到開心,反而在他生日時發布一段影片,向那位白人女子公開道歉。

沃克表示當初貼在FB的文章,並沒有想過會造成那麼大的反應,這個事件是真實的,就如同種族歧視這個問題也是真實存在的,但他應該用另一種方式處理,或是保留下來,而不是選擇公開。
平時在與人打交道時,他也會盡可能去同理別人的想法,做出正確的決定,如果今天換成他是那位白人女子,肯定很不好受,對於網路輿論帶給那位女子的困擾,他也深感抱歉。
沃克最後更說到:「我相信,就算你不能幫助別人,至少你也不該做出任何事情來傷害別人。」
When i posted that post on Facebook i didn’t expect all that to come from it. I can honestly name the four or five people i thought would comment with something funny, and that will be it. This racist stuff is definitely a issue but this is not the solution to that issue. It brings me no joy waking up in paradise to for my 37 bday and knowing that woman might be going threw hell. The story was definitely real, just like this issue is definitely real, but i now know that I myself should of handled it another way, or left it how it was, and not shared It publicly. When dealing with people i always try to stay on the side of Right, so to make sure I never do anybody wrong, I try to always put myself in that persons shoes, and ask how would I feel if that person did this to me, and if I was her this morning i would be a total wreak today, and that doesn’t help this situation, or her...it only makes them more angry, and bring more drama...SO I WOULD LIKE TO APOLOGIZE AGAIN TO THE WOMAN I HAD THIS ENCOUNTER WITH YESTERDAY. NO MATTER HOW WRONG YOUR ACTIONS YOU DON’T DESERVE THIS @realdlhughley @daquan @respectmyhair @mediablackoutusa @theshaderoom @undocumedia @hgcapparel @berrycurly @kimorajfox I BELIEVE IF YOU CAN’T HELP NOBODY AT THE VERY LEAST YOU SHOULD NEVER DO ANYTHING TO HURT THEM

了不起,負責!雖然歧視有錯在先,但透過網路po文的方式反而有種公開處刑的感覺,沃克能即時察覺並立馬道歉,漂亮的危機處理為整個事件劃下一個完美的句點,讓戰哥深感佩服,「人情留一線,日後好相見。」即使社會上還有許多問題無法得到解決,只要大家不互相傷害,這個世界依然會變得更加美好的!
