(On the plane)        A white woman, about 60 years old, was seated next to a blackman. She felt uncomfortable, so she called the flight attendant.“What is wrong, madam?” the flight attendent asked.“Don’t you see that? You placed me next to a black man. Idon’t agree to sit next to someone from such a dirty group. Giveme another seat.”
 “Be calm, please.” the flight attendent answered, “Almost all theseats on this plane are taken. I will check if there is anotheravailable seat.”
        A few minutes later, the flight attendent came back. “Madam,we are really sorry that there are no other available seats in theEconomy Class. We only have one in the First Class.”
        Before the woman could say anything, the flight attendent keptsaying, “We have to make sure all of the passengers on our flightare well taken care of. It would lose face to make someone sitnext to someone so disgusting.”
        She turned to the black man, and said, “So, sir, if you wouldlike to, please collect your bag, a seat waits for you in the FirstClass.”
