Black protesters targeted white people eating brunch today at New York City restaurants.
They joined hands and screamed at white patrons.
One “white woman” was brought to tears.

Of course, the protesters claim they don’t have the power to be racist.
Angry/delusional whites on #BlackBrunchNYC don't understand what racism is. Black people lack power dynamic necessary to be racist 2 whites.
