Community supports Radcliff Applebee's server after racist note
Jasmine Brewer was going about her work as a server last week at Applebee’s in Radcliff when a note scribbled on a napkin stopped her.
“We don’t tip black people,” read the note apparently left by a customer.
Brewer sent a photo of the note to her mother, who posted it on Facebook. Since then, Brewer has received an outpouring of support.
“Everybody is on my side and wants to put an end to racism,” she said.

I suspect that those customers would argue that they were being racially sensitive by referring to Brewer as "black people" instead of the other word that they use in private.
