America has a bad rap sheet when it comes to people dying in the hands of the law. Especially people of color. The death of George Floyd has caused a nationwide outbreak. Gro Introducing my next guest, Ashaad Mason. A young and intelligent black male from Rochester, New York. Ashaad was open enough to run an episode and share his story on what's it like to grow up as a black individual. It doesn't matter how smart you are, how fast you are, or even how rich you are. No matter where you go and what you do you'd always get looked at. Ashaad recalled one of his most racial profiled incidents when he used to work at Sears. A caucasian male wanted to inquire additional information from a brochure offering so he walked up to Ashaad and said "Excuse me, I have a question." Looked at Ashaad, noticed he was black, and said "Never mind, you probably can't read anyways." Most people would've started a fight there but Ashaad grew up and was raised right. Instead, he still offered his help and pulled in his manager to resolve the situation. We all have incidents, some worst than others and that's the problem. We live in a society where two different people can do the same exact crime, at the same exact time, and get TWO DIFFERENT sentences. For things to change, we have to change. #BLACKLIVESMATTER
