i feel bad for him and his baby nurse, imagine you go to bank trying to withdraw ur own money provided all needed documents, but still got handcuffed…and the baby nurse waiting for her payment got detained as well, the trauma.
Racismo… Hubiera sido blanco le ponen alfombra roja.
The moral of this story is no matter how much green a black man has, he will always be black and will be treated as such. White privilege only applies to white people. Remember, America is not a racist country. Yeah, right!
What's wrong with these people?! imagine tryin to withdraw your own money and then being handcuffed… i feel sorry for mr. Coogler.
How many Bank Robbers ask for an EXACT AMOUNT? With any kind of ID? THIS IS BAD!!! REALLY, REALLY BAD!!! This is an example of the self hatred / suspicion / implicit bias, that years of racism, have embedded in people's minds. Another example of why CRITICAL RACE THEORY, should be taught.
This is the reason why the retail banks should be digitalized.
Lawsuit lawsuit lawsuit!!!!!! Let’s all chant together lawsuit!!!! Lmao!!!
How can black people deal with this on a daily basis?? Woow traumatizing to say the least. No words. Praying for better days
HE CAN SUE THE BANK. 100% FOR DOING THAT
and why did he not go to a bank officer for the help for this 'special discrete' transaction via a hand written note without a check …. he would have been easily helped, he wanted to create a problem, and a new book coming for sure …. mo money
This happens because they train their employees to profile any black man making a withdrawal….it's a shame we have to go through this regardless of how you behave. Management ultimately made the decision to call the police. They need to look at BOA as a whole and all other banks to stop the unjust profiling
The longer this video got the more my heart ached for him. I know this is two months ago, but that kind of pain doesn't go away through working a job. That s*** is scary. And we doing it to our own. All she had to do was her job which is Max the ID to the car that he gave her, but you couldn't even do that because how Society is made her feel about her own.
What Had Happened.. The Bank Teller Twisted Things Up ☝ ☝.. For Not Asking If He Had A Savings, Checking Account In A Different Name: It's Sad.. Just Because He Was A African American Black Director.. That's Keeps The Younger Generation Of The Youth Of Our Own!! By Telling Today Black Youth What The Black Panther's And Our Black And Brown Went Through In The 1960's And Still To This Day 2022.. P.S. Thank God, That Everything Came Out For The Better 👍 👍 On His End.
Now! Sir, please remove ALLL of your money from that bank! They don’t deserve your services.
this is purely the teller's fault. other than pulling the gun out too early, the officers did a good job. I think the officer should've just placed his hand on his holster rather than pull it out too early. that would still give him time to react in case it was a real armed robbery. the teller on the other hand? overreacted and should be fired.
Only in Amerikkka
Wow
See it pays to be black
Racism at its peak
Man just say you directed black panther,
It's called banking while being black watch out people you're going to end up being cuffed at gunpoint
A lawsuit against the bank and the cops also have the Bank employee fired
Stop putting money in those banks
Wankanda? A technologically advanced country created by blks? Lol, only in a Marvel movie does any such place exist.
Banking while black… there is no end to these conspiracies that they will go through…. Every time you think it end a new thing comes up…. Everytime….
Racists I would've took all my money out that bank
The BANK definitely needs to be held accountable… especially the Teller and Mgr. If I were Ryan, I would take out EVERY dime and close every ACCOUNT!
Can he sue for this? Seems like harassment
The bank teller should ban to watch Black Panther 2.
A scared person is also a dangerous person
Pigs. If he would of got 10 thousand. The pigs would of pocket it.
Wow he lucky he didn't get shot
"Detain and ask questions later." Is be being serious? Lmao
So, the teller gets the benefit of the doubt with a baseless 911 call but not the man being completely upfront about everything. American law enforcement needs reform
🔥 her
Such a stupid teller…if the account was verified, what was the issue???
Stupid!! Pass a note to a teller asking for 12,000 dollars and to be discreet about it while wearing a hat, glasses and a mask into a bank. I thought black panthers were smarter than that. They used to be before they became woke.
I dont like in USA
But I think people in US should focus more in this type of discrimination of black people
And a bit less on if the next Batman or James Bond is black
