I mean, they're right as well. Especially here in the South. Until recently where small, local barbershops have become almost a thing of the past. The guy I used to see as a kid (when I had no choice) would chase black people out of his shop with a shotgun while shouting slurs.

His shop only closed when he died in 2010. Racist fucker was almost 100.

Every barbershop where I am used to be like that.

I'm not denying that black people have been kicked out of business as a result of racism. I'm challenging that as the primary reason that black barbershops exist today.
