There have been dozens of stories that have gone viral over the past few years about black people being harassed for going about their everyday lives.
There was the black family who had the cops called on them for having a barbecue, the little girl who was harassed for selling bottled water on the street, and recently the metro worker who's job was threatened for eating on the train.
Now, American Airlines has apologized for humiliating a black doctor for wearing vacation attire on a flight home from Jamaica.
