Nationwide — An unidentified African American woman who works at a law firm in Buffalo, New York faced discrimination when a fellow office worker, who is a white woman, questioned her use of a bathroom in their shared building. The incident, which was captured on video, has since gained attention.
“Can I ask who you report to so I can call the law firm?” the unidentified white woman asked. She then went on to question her use of the bathroom, insisting she should use the restroom on her own floor.
“Why do I have to stay on my floor? Because of what?” the Black woman asks, visibly frustrated.
It turns out both women work for the same law firm, just on different floors.
