Racist Man Demands That A Woman Stop Speaking Spanish On A Plane, Passengers Troll Him By Speaking Spanish Too

ADVERTISEMENT

Racism seems to be an endless topic nowadays, which may appear a tiny bit odd since we have so much racial diversity in the majority of the Western world. There are so many stories about it everywhere. On the other hand, there are still people waiting to build a wall in order to keep someone from entering their country. ‘Quite extreme’ one may say, right?

Having that in mind, it’s so good to have these random acts of kindness with a sprinkle of humor. It definitely makes us keep our heads up and the hope for the world to get better going strong. Today’s story is one of those sparks of hope and is featuring Jaime Primak, who got in trouble for speaking Spanish. Scroll down to find out more!

More info: Jaime Primak

Jaime Primak Sullivan recently got attention on Twitter after talking about an encounter with a racist man

This woman, who is a real public relations guru, brand building and event planning, also a writer, producer, and an acknowledged author of ‘The Southern Education of a Jersey Girl’ is usually not one to let such things slide. But this time, it was other people who took charge of the situation by jumping into the conversation the grumpy racist passenger hated so much. After she shared a quick cheeky message on Twitter, it soon blew up into a massive thread as everyone seemed to want to have been a part of it.

People on Twitter were quick to express their support

It's just a weird thing to say as English isn't the official language in the USA. I would have loved to speak my two Spanish sentences 'dos cervecas, por favor' and 'vamos a la playa'.

I never get why people are so rude with other languages... The only dog trainer in the area of Belgium where I live not only refused to help me train my dog because she is trained in English (and as we live in Belgium 'she must be trained in flemish') but also gave me a 5 min speech about how I cant speak to my partner and dog IN MY HOUSE in any language that is not flemish...

I worked in at a company that hired Spanish speakers and Eastern European speakers and everybody also spoke English. One day a group of ladies that only spoke English were complaining "This is America they should speak English". I challenged them, "Why are you afraid they are talking about you?".......a meek answer was "yes". If you hear someone demanding someone speak English ask them why.

Glowdaddy, do the English-only ladies think that they're a source of fascination to their colleagues? Really??? At one of my work-places some non-Chinese asked the Cantonese speakers what they talked out about -- they weren't at all bothered, just wondering what topics caused these ladies to be so animated in the lunch room. The Cantonese speakers looked a bit sheepish and one of them admitted, "Movie stars from Hong Kong". Celeb gossip -- the universal language :)

If the conversation wasn’t directed toward him, why did he think he had the right to butt in and tell her what language she could use to have a conversation With Someone Else?! IT WAS NONE OF HIS BUSINESS. How TF paranoid can you be at hearing languages that aren’t English—-which people speak in other countries (yeah, real weird, I know. /s) Unless you’re being a real d**k, and everyone’s talking about you, people conversing in other languages aren’t either. Shut TF up and mind your own business.

Recently on a bus in Holland, an American tourist complained that the driver didn't speak English. I intervened, and explained to him that we speak Dutch, but when we go to the US we speak English, as courtesy. Now he's in Holland, he should express that same courtesy, and address us in Dutch.

I think the only time one should speak English if in American is in a professional setting. It's rude to talk a native language when you have clients around. It makes many uncomfortable. Other than that, it's no ones business how you choose to communicate.

I took French in high school and I took Spanish in college. Several men of my family have worked with language speakers of all languages and on occasion we slip into Spanglish. This world is made up of many different people from many different cultures who speak many different languages and we need to embrace that. These people who are always yelling about people needing to "speak American" do not realize how ignorant they sound when they say that. Here are some things to remember if you are a die hard American: American is not a language, the US does not have an official language, and English comes from England.

I speak English, Spanish, and French. I feel ashamed that I can't speak beyond these parameters. I would never attack somebody for speaking Cantonese or Arabic in front of. I would rather sit next to them and ask if they'd teach me basics, like "Hello." That's just me, though.

Whoever wrote the title of this thread should go back to English class. Obviously he/she hasn't a clue of the difference between "coincidence and correlation" It is a "coincidence that many bigots are also racists, but the two together do not necessarily represent a "correlation".

Добрий привід читати Українська поезія! (That's a good reason to resite Ukrainian poetry!) Why would you care, unless you're worried they're talking about you?

I took French in high school and I took Spanish in college. Several men of my family have worked with language speakers of all languages and on occasion we slip into Spanglish. This world is made up of many different people from many different cultures who speak many different languages and we need to embrace that. These people who are always yelling about people needing to "speak American" do not realize how ignorant they sound when they say that. Here are some things to remember if you are a die hard American: American is not a language, the US does not have an official language, and English comes from England.

I speak English, Spanish, and French. I feel ashamed that I can't speak beyond these parameters. I would never attack somebody for speaking Cantonese or Arabic in front of. I would rather sit next to them and ask if they'd teach me basics, like "Hello." That's just me, though.

Most people who have a problem with others speaking other than English are afraid that others are speaking about them. Its an insecurity thing.

"Je suis désolé que vous soyez stupide et que vous ne parlez qu'une seule langue." Translation: "I'm sorry that you're stupid and that you only speak one language." ... :)

Whoever wrote the title of this thread should go back to English class. Obviously he/she hasn't a clue of the difference between "coincidence and correlation" It is a "coincidence that many bigots are also racists, but the two together do not necessarily represent a "correlation".

If they weren't addressing me in Spanish, I would simply ignore them and let them enjoy their PRIVATE conversation.

You could have responded " I will stop speaking Spanish if you will stop breathing." I am glad that others helped put him in his place.
