I'd sue

How can people say that it's racist I am a white man and have been stopped by store security quite a few times with no apologies from any of them it's a sign of the times we are living in

Remove the word "black" when you stop seeing in black and white and start seeing in color life on Earth will get better for all of us

I was looking forward to seeing his wife, but she decline the opportunity to defend her husband...😊

Security in the uk must be granted more authority than in America. In America the security would be risking their own great bodily injury or death.

Racist are still around. Don't never think racist has stopped. It doesn't matter how much money you have in your account. This is how black people receive a jail record 😒 being innocent. Please do a lawsuit. That was assault by the man in black. She's giving accuses for their actions. Get all of their names and police staff. Racist behavior, detained, harassment and Embarrassment.

Waste of time 😂

ohh my god what a cry baby

Duty manager was ready to listen at least. thats worth something

Wow! This has touched my soul I relate to those values too. I’m going to continue to practice that attitude always When you have good intentions 💙🙌🏾🫶🏾✊🏾👑Clean Hearts win. Keeping it real always x

amazing! - I will be there 2024 lets go!

Instead of all the verbal diarrhoea , his magic statement should have been I've been assaulted by at least 3 people "I want the police right now" because that's why they had a problem with the camera and why they all ran away .

No bloody sound.

Mr.Williams my profound sympathies for you after watching this clearly 1.false stop 2.assault by security staff. Couldn’t hear any apology from security and staff. The White duty manager male called Chris wearing black mask was initially defensive and disrespectful and you are right he should have used conflict management techniques and flexibility of approach to diffuse the tense situation and concerns. I recognise the Asian security officer wearing black suit and I know his name. It is stereotyping/cultural profiling. Whilst security stop all races of people including certain Black people who steal it is a fact as you say that Black people DO get unnecessarily and disproportionately followed around business premises by staff and security who hope that Black people would steal so they can detain Black people. I speak as a Black security officer myself and have often questioned other security colleagues why watch Black people more than others apart from certain Black people who steal. I get watched unnecessarily by security myself especially in my local stores even though staff and security know me when I go to stores too.Many people of all cultures experience this too. Respect to you for teaching the duty supervisor and shopping centre security about the ingrained discrimination Black people experience including in retail environment. I hope the Chief Executive Officer responds firmly. We are human.

They know they can get away with treating us wrong

History proves white people are the thieves and stole wealth from black and land from the Indians. So should we stereotype you as a thief?

Your parents did a crap job of raising you! If you feel that it's only black people that get treated like this then you need your head checking!!! As a white woman growing up in the year 2023 this is what keeps racism going on, everything is black man this black people that...... if it was a white person saying white person this and that it would be a massive outcry "oh that's racist" All your channel is about hating other races other than your own! Have you learnt about the real history of slavery????? The Atlantic slave trade was a small part of it. The ottoman slave trade was far worse and went on longer where thousands of more people died..... many white people, do you see white people carrying on the same pathetic way you do. Why is it it's only the black people that cry about everything? Wasn't it the white man that travelled to foreign lands and seen the black man selling the black man! Yes we took to the idea but wasn't it also the white man that obliterated the Atlantic slave trade. You're a narc-issist!

Oh shut up

Usually while they are watching black folks white folks are stealing them blind.

Boy walked in fist clenched looking for a fight by the looks of it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Using George floyd was a bad example as the world's a slightly better place without characters like him in it.

👍👍 glad to see it

I feel sorry for the situation you were going through. Nobody likes that and you should get your compensation back. The staff/managers did nothing to address the problem but fair play to you speaking out.

i disagree. Not in this your case.

Now this dude is racist now.

You should be banned for life in the mall.

Shame on you for using the race card.

They're not racist!

Do you have a receipt that you paid?

Fantastic Work, Keep shining for God 🙏🏾

Great stuff Cephas 🙌🏿

I would have returned their product and never shop there,black man,woman be warn..Stop supporting their business..

Hi Cephas, I found your video on Facebook seeing what happened to you at Bluewater, I am so glad you stood up for yourself and every other black person there and then. They treated you with so much disrespect and you were 100000% correct that they came at you with such anger, prejudgement and racism, you could see it in their body language especially the person who wouldn’t let you go and the person who tried to take your phone because they had a “I am top dog and in control” stance with you which was unnecessarily aggressive and inhuman, everything you have experienced there and in your lifetime so far is completely heartbreaking. I will never understand what you or any black person has to experience in their day to day lives but I do hope one day that your educational words and others begin to change other peoples opinions, actions and mind set and the way we move (hopefully we all one day move together as just human). Thank you for being you! I wish you and your family peace, love, light and equality! I’d just like to ad that your letter to your son is insightful and powerful

🙌🙌

🤣🤣🤣 man’s body turned into jello I’m dying lmao!!!

Good lad teach that bum a lesson

🖤🖤

HI Cephas I am so pleased I connected with you so many years ago. You are a constant inspiration.

Your message broke my heart 💔 You are doing amazing work, and I pray you to get the right support. One of the most difficult things I realised when I was running my own business was dealing with our own black people for fundraisingor donations. There are many black millionaires that can back the work you are doing, but nowhere to be found in times of need. It's really heartbreaking 💔 If we can't support our own, than who's going to help us. I walked away from a well established business because I was so tired of always asking for help to support the black community. There are many millionaires, billionaires who can support the work you do, the likes of Beyonce, and most who are in the music industry, film, businesses and more...we are however, only thinking about ourselves, and not ever looking at the bigger picture. I am not too sure, when this mind set of myself only, will ever change. All I can say is keep up the good work. When you feel you, can not pour from empty glass. Walk away with your head held high, and say you gave it your best shot. Your health is your wealth, and always remember family first. Your wife and children must be your priority. Take care and look after yourself. From your number 1 fan 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

37 minutes of this screaming spastic is just too much.

they chose the wrong person to discriminate😭 what a message he put across they tried to act like it was nothing and back to business as usual when really he HAD to put his point across because as white people we will never understand what it is like in the every day life of a black man. It’s worrying that this prejudice will probably never change. Some humans just look at people a certain way because of how they look, with no effort whatsoever to look inside the person

We don't know the full story If he hadn't stolen the merchandise why didn't he just show the security guards the receipt. Instead of saying he'd thrown it away. Doesn't make sense All I take away from this is. If you are black you should never be challenged. But I have to say the security at that place are terrible.

They were mean to him man. Those security guards and the last Asian security guard needs to be sacked. Even bouncers don’t man handle people like that. Sack these bastards. Uneducated dropouts.

That security woman said people make mistakes, bluewater shopping centre made a big mistake hiring her.

any update on this?

Dosnt matter if it was only a phone. The guard did the right thing. Otherway around the story would of been "man does nothing thinking someone only had a phone 2nd clip shows it was actually a knife and got stabbed to death" he had no choice you cant let people come at you like that

There is obviously a lawsuit here. I would own the business if I was that guy getting stolen from by the store I just bought something from. That's really low!

Powerful!

Well done mate!!

so wonderful and inspiring to see what has become from a horrible experience. I think all people of color can understand what you went through.... I'm curious to know if Cephas ever did talk to the CEO of that store....or has he spoken to any of the people that were involved with him that day or were there any apologies"?
