Shopping while black
"Shopping while black" is a phrase commonly used for the type of marketplace discrimination that is also called "consumer racial profiling", "consumer racism" or "racial profiling in a retail setting". Shopping while black describes the experience of being denied service or given poor service because one is black.
==Overview==
Most commonly, "shopping while black" involves a black person being followed around or closely monitored by a clerk or guard who suspects he or she may steal, but it can also involve being denied store access, being refused service, use of ethnic slurs, being searched, being asked for extra forms of identification, having purchases limited, being required to have a higher credit limit than other customers, being charged a higher price, or being asked more rigorous questions on applications. This can be the result of store policy, or individual employee prejudice. Consumer racial profiling occurs in many retail environments including grocery stores, clothing shops, department stores and office supply shops, and companies accused of consumer racial profiling have included Eddie Bauer, Office Max, Wal-Mart, Sears, Dillard's, Macy's and Home Depot.〔
Shopping while black is sometimes also called "shopping while black or brown", but researchers say black people are the most frequently targeted.
Shopping while black has been extensively covered by American news media, including a hidden camera ABC News special in which actors posing as store staff harassed black customers to see how other shoppers would respond,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://eyebite.tv/Video/video/fNSz3eiGQFk/What-Would-You-Do-ABC-News-Shopping-While-Black.html )〕 and a Soledad O'Brien segment called "Shopping While Black", part of a CNN special on being black in America.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2008/black.in.america/ )〕 It is usually assumed to occur mainly in the United States, but has also been reported in the United Kingdom, Canada, Switzerland, and the Netherlands.
