Black woman recounts viral video incident of incessant harassment at airport In a #FlyingWhileBlack incident in St. Louis, a woman describes being bothered for nearly a half hour by a white woman who seemed to be mentally disturbed A Black woman who was seen in a video being bothered by a seemingly incoherent white woman while standing in line at a St. Louis airport is explaining what she experienced in the now-viral footage.

News about the 22-minute video where she was hounded by a woman back in October at the St. Louis Lambert International Airport who she believes targeted her because of her skin color. The woman stands near Smith who is in line and waiting to board a Southwest Airlines flight while talking to another passenger. The woman interrupts their conversation and begins to aggravate Smith, telling her over and over and over again to sit down in various seats in the airport. “This woman just walked up to us and said, ‘Sit down,’” Smith tells Yahoo Lifestyle. “I was like, ‘Who is she talking to? I am 45 years old. No one has told me to sit down in decades.’” Smith proceeded to film the woman’s irritating rant. “I and the gentleman were the only two black people in the area, so I wasn’t sure where this would lead,” she tells the outlet. The woman incessantly tells Smith, “There are seats over there, I’m just telling you, there are seats over there.” “You’ve said that 27 times,” answered Smith. “I didn’t ask you for a seat, ma’am.” “There are seats over there, you’re having a conversation, there are seats over there,” said the woman. “This is a line. I am in line.” Smith asked the woman to go away to no avail. “It’s amazing how our conversation… is only bothering you.” “This is white privilege,” said Smith. Eventually a security guard ordered the woman to stop but she continued. “There are so many seats!” the woman said. Security finally came along and escorted the woman away.

Our employees intervened to offer assistance and diffuse the situation in a calm and professional manner, and they asked local law enforcement officers to become involved. The passenger who instigated the incident refused to cooperate, and she was eventually escorted from the airport by local law enforcement. “We sincerely regret the unpleasant experience this situation created for all of our customers who witnessed the event, and most especially the two customers who were directly impacted. We are reaching out to them to offer our personal apologies and invite them back for a much more pleasant experience.” Share
