It would be great if there were fewer S Asian Americans CEOs being the passive aggressive bigots using white supremacist tactics to claim they aren't doing exactly what they are doing and claiming marketing to Black History Month or Pride ⬇️ is a defense. www.sfgate.com/food/article...

But Philz CEO Mahesh Sadarangani says this measure will make the Bay Area-born cafe chain more welcoming to customers.

“Our longstanding support of the LGBTQIA+ community is unchanged,” Sadarangani said in an emailed statement to SFGATE. “We are working toward creating a more consistent, inclusive experience across all our stores, including removing a variety of flags and other decor. This is a change in how our stores look, not in who we are,” he continued, adding that the company plans to hold a pride event in June.

Today in racist DARVO* Apparently Inciting bigot was on TV in LA & accused the family she verbally abused/menaced w/ hitting her w/ a bag while disregarding the instructions of a flight attendant & directing racial slurs at her How is it nobody knows her name * Deny Attack Reverse Victim & Offender

Boston 25 News could not confirm with United Airlines whether the woman has been placed on their internal ‘no fly’ list. The airline had nothing else to say about the incident.

“Had I known we could have pressed charges immediately, we would have,” Nicole said. “And then we heard nothing from United. Three days ago, my husband submitted an official complaint online to United and we got a response and they said there’s not much they could do.”

There’s not much the Taufiqs can do until they find out who the woman is. Nicole said they were disturbed to learn that the woman wrote in to a Los Angeles TV station after the video was broadcast and told lies about the encounter.

Nicole said her husband did not hit the woman while removing a suitcase and did not get up to retrieve a bag during approach in violation of flight attendant orders.

“At no point did he have any racial slurs toward her,” she added.

Nicole said it’s discouraging to hear the woman is trying to justify her behavior.

“There’s no room to go there,” she said. “If you had an issue with my husband and he did the so-called thing she says he did, then she should have reported him.”

Further details, the bigot's bigot husband got in on it. The inciting bigot thought filming her abuse and a father defending his 4 year old from a menacing screaming white woman (i.e. inciting bigot), was a great idea Still unidentified, United apparently handled it? www.yahoo.com/news/indian-...

“She was making comments to him on the flight,” Taufiq told The Independent. “She was saying, ‘Are you Indian?’ He’s 11, so he was like, ‘Yeah, I’m Indian.’”

“And she’s like, ‘Are you from New Delhi?’ And he said, ‘No, my family’s from Bombay,’ and so that’s where this whole thing kicked off,” Taufiq added. “Then she said, ‘Oh, I gotta talk to your parents.’”

Taufiq described his 11-year-old son as respectful and quiet throughout the flight, noting the flight attendant even praised how well-behaved the boy was.

He’s “so quiet and literally just playing on his iPad ... he's really well behaved, to be honest,” Taufiq said.

When Taufiq’s family ran into the woman again after they deplaned, and boarded the shuttle bus on the tarmac, Taufiq said the woman told his other son, who is four years old, to “shut up.”

“She turns to our youngest son, who was talking about the plane outside and says, ‘Shut up,’” Taufiq told The Independent.

“I think I went into fight-or-flight a little bit, I said, ‘Don’t you ever f****** talk to my son that way,” Taufiq added. “‘You don’t have a right to do that,’” he added. “And that’s when her husband got up and literally got into my face, as if he’s going to hit me,” said Taufiq.

The video, which has gone viral on Instagram, starts soon afterward. Footage reveals the woman flashing her middle fingers to Taufiq, before taking out her phone to film him.

“I’m going to record your f****** tandoori a**,” she said in the video, referring to an Indian cooking method.
