While shopping at Ulta one day I was followed each isle I went to and the person kept acting like she was straightening up. She asked me twenty millions times if I needed help. I kept saying no I’m fine. So I decided to put her ass to work. Asked her to find all these products for me, put them in my basket and when I was done said I CHANGED MY MIND.

When I used to work for retail and did orientation, the manager always say a customer isn’t stealing until they walked out of the store with unpaid merchandise.
True! I worked at a Major retail store and you can put things in your bags as long as you pay for them before leaving. It’s definitely illegal to accuse someone of stealing before they have walked out the store.
Yes! I am Black and here I Washington DC, I see white folks shopping WITH a recyclable bag. They just go from aisle to aisle putting their groceries in their bags. I have NEVER seen a Black person shop that way. We know that shit wouldn’t fly with us.
I’m from Jamaica and I used to work in a call center where I responded to emails for Kroger and its affiliated stores. I got quite a few cases about discrimination. I used to apologize to the customers then reward them with money on their shopper card. 😂 Free groceries for my fellow black people😌

i’m a black woman who comes into grocery stores with a back pack on on multiple occasions. Mainly because i bike to my grocery store near by. I’ve never been checked by security the second i walk in or at all for that matter. Even if you come in with grocceries in your bag it’s completely irrelevant to your shopping what they did was wrong and it was clearly racially motivated. I’m proud of you for standing up for yourself without hesitiation.
I guess it’s different for each store, because the Fiesta grocery store in downtown Dallas tends to ask all middle and high-school kids to leave their backpacks at the front of the store with the security guard. When I get off of work and have to go to that store, I usually put my backpack in the cart and start shopping. No one says anything to me. Also the Dollar store near my house doesn’t allow kids to have their backpacks while shopping. Again, they have to leave them at the front with the cashier.
@@Jeremy-sj3pr Oh ok. It’s just that particular store had a rule about backpacks even had a sign up. Plus it’s mostly middle and high schools in that district.
I’m just paranoid woman in general. I’m white but I feel like everyone needs self protection. One time I went with a friend (white) to Walmart and she was buying more things than I had money for so I got jealous and walked to the front of the store and sat. I see her and stand up as soon as security approached her. Never have I been so glad to be jealous. She tried stealing vitamins she claimed. Idk but what if I would have found her trying to make her hurry? I was so scared but it passed and I left with my gum. Just being with a person stealing could make you under arrest as well.
I am BEYOND over the microagression and use of the word "aggressive" whenever a black person seeks resolution to a matter!!! If your skin was any other color & you asked in the same manner you did, I guarantee that word wouldn't have been used & you wouldn't have been accused of being something you're not! It's almost a way to deflect from the overall issue at hand, and to make it seem like we're the problem. Gaslighting technically. Sorry this happened to you Troyce & this is the reality we face in backwards America
I guarantee they would not have! I'm a middle eastern/armenian woman and went to best buy and was way worse than troyce (because they kept messing up my tv delivery, one didn't come, one was broken) and I went in there and I told the employees I need to speak to a supervisor right now. They never called me aggressive! And even though the manager was panicking a little he never told me to calm down or anything. In fact he was extremely apologetic. I have not heard any sincere apologies from any of the employees in this video. I'm glad troyce is doing this. These corporations do the fake woke and BLM shit and then don't know how to act when there is real discrimination in their stores.
He has no right to ask you “What’s in your backpack! That’s like asking a woman in a store “what’s in your purse” or asking someone what’s in your pockets. Like WTF, that’s so inappropriate!!!! He needs to mind his damn business.
I do this! And if they start pretending to look at say a soda or something I start looking at the same type of soda beside them. If it's an individual item that they're pretending to adjust, I wait next to them like I'm waiting for them to finish so that I can look at that item for purchase. 😂
That is just so messed up you have people following you. I’d get so upset as well. Nobody deserve this and I KNEW white women who would steal wine etc. Not me because I will not go to jail over some dumb thing. These were grown women. Grown white women.
@@stasiabri4196 man I’ve purposely acted out. And walked in with my hands up and made a smart ass comment when I was done shopping. I love being rude and disrespectful to them
i’m a mexican girl and let me tell you i’ve been followed while having a backpack at multiple stores. don’t know whether it’s just the backpack or it’s a race thing but i will say once at a thrift store i threw a huge fit bc i was being followed and there was a WHITE girl with a backpack toooo who definitely was not being followed. looking back i should have done wayyy more than cuss him out.
SIMILAR EXPERIENCE! sometimes I don't think anything of it but I confirmed it was because I was black one day, at Sephora there was these group if white girls hurdling over eachother stuffing stuff into their bags and the employees kept on looking at me?? I'm like is this some type of inside job or something 😭
Same I get stared at a lot especially at white places like Ralph’s it’s crazy and the white people always give me a death stare and I feel there eyes on me
I have so much respect for you for returning to the store. We’re always taking deep breaths and walking away. But sometimes you really gotta get on their level. You handled that well!
Social tf anxiety WHO ? Thats what I’mtalking about! So proud of you Troyce❤️! Please do an updated video how you got to this position as far as mental health pls , much love
@@TROYCETV can you bring back the informational videos (ex: how you’ve spoke on corn syrup , that aluminum deodorant can cause cancer, etc) please, or incorporate them in maybe a mukbang or something? I lowkey learn a lot from you along with doing my own research. But I learn something new when watching you! Just a suggestion😁
The fact that the security guard says he does that to everyone too, makes it even worse. That is harassment. The security needs to know the proper way to do their job. It’s so weird because no one ever asks hey what’s in your purse either
TH-cam would rather *crash* their site before this goes viral. They are in business with Kroger and Ralph. The censorship is so obvious at this point. If they delete this video please drag them on your podcast.
Troyce - send a formal complaint to Kroger's general counsel Christine Wheatley at their corporate HQ in Cincinnati. This is the best way to have the issue addressed at the corporate level. p.s. you look great!
Took the words right out of my mouth...coincidently, I just went through something similar yesterday at el pollo loco! The experience was crass and unnecessary! Your not alone troyce many of us can relate. I'm just glad your using this platform to help people be aware that they're not alone...brush that shit off ✌🏽⚓
I remember shopping at Grocery Outlet and they told me that I couldn’t have my backpack on me at all. So I gave them the backpack while I shop, tell me why 5 minutes later I see another sucka with a backpack on shopping in the store, I’m like wtf why they get on my ass but not this guy? So I definitely feel how irritating the situation is.
The problem is not that he asked you three times. It’s that he asked about your bag in the first place. That means the store suspects you of stealing. My response would’ve been, “Why are you asking? Do you suspect me of stealing?” I wouldn’t have left the store until I spoke with the manager. I would’ve then asked the manager if it was their company policy to ask customers about the contents of personal bags?
The assistant manager really tried it when he called you aggressive. He definitely knows he is playing into the weaponization of words regarding black people. They all should be determinated 🤷🏾♀️
Omg I love how troyce really just came up from living with his family to living in his apartment in Florida now living In California like I’m so happy for him then the weight loss 🥺❤️
You definitely got a discrimination lawsuit against the store if you wanted to go down that road and bring national attention - that would hurt them. Also having a bodycam is not stupid nowadays and you look great! Keep up the great work. Your inspiring. 😘👑💯
TRIGGERED WARNING: Watching this video gave me so much anxiety and stressed. Like every time I get stopped or stared at, I never speak up or get help cuz I get so nervous. I’m glad Troyce stood up for himself. Cuz I can never 😭
@@alwayslove2622 I love hearing this bc for some of us who’ve grown up (formerly) not being able to defend ourselves, it gives so much hope. Sometimes you gotta rock the boat.
Don't be afraid to stand up for what's RIGHT. I DEAL WITH THAT AGAIN IM REPORTING PEOPLE PERIOD. IDC THEY DONT NEED TO WORK THERE IF THEY ASSUME EVERY PERSON OF COLOR IS GONNA STEAL THATS IGNORANT AS HELL ANYONE CAN STEAL NOT JUST PEOPLE OF COLOR DONT LET MFS SCARE YOU TO NOT REPORT THEM.
This is probably why most blk ppl dont bother reporting cause it takes so much effort and determination to get basic support and assistance in these matters. Ugh... And the micro aggressions...i can't Well done for persevering!! 💜👌🏾😊
I work at a store and the guy walked into the parking lot to see what car you got into and get the license plate. They cant touch you once you are outside but they can get your tags and report you. They were flustered af.
Troyce, the fact that corporate asked you for your shopper’s card number was simply to see how valuable of a customer you were. Since you did not have one, they probably thought they didn’t have to put up with your complaints since you weren’t a loyal customer anyway
@@CRUZinLA the info I gave him was not wrong. He’s the vp for all of the locations in the US for Kroger’s and Ralph’s. W/ a problem like this, talking to the store director isn’t enough. If I didn’t know what I was talking about I wouldn’t have commented.
@@Amber-db9cz I am specifically talking about the Miguel they are looking for at that location. It’s literally on the bottom of the receipt. I am familiar with the area and am simply stating that’s all he has to do. Just look at the bottom of the receipt.
Troyce that customer service number you called was a scam, thats why he asked for your card number. That happened to me before I googled an amazon customer service number but it was actually fake and they tried to get my card info, so just be careful because sometimes google don't be putting the right customer service number and the number that is linked is a straight scam. Thats why when you told him you didn't use a card and only had a receipt, he hung up right after.
Tone policing is NOT OKAY!!! that assistant manager should not have said your coming off aggressive. Obviously you are not happy with how you were being treated and then he has the audacity to tone police you. You should add that you your report troyce
My biggest pet peeve is being followed or ask a billion questions in the store. I’ve been followed to the point I just say I’m leaving because I refuse to buy from anyone who profiles me. Like what’s the criteria of questioning someone more than once and following them.
I hate when I have to carry my backpack in a store. They literally follow you like a criminal, like dude not everyone has a car some of us have to walk and take the bus and use backpacks for our groceries.
Troyce is the definition of a good troll lol I aspire to be this level of petty! Troyce you’re no dummy by far and they tried to treat you like you were. They def had the wrong one and you had time! Most people would have just given up and charged it to the game but, I freaking love the relentlessness.
Troyce. I’m an LA native. They never ask what’s in your bag.. the most they do is ask that if you have a bigger bag you leave it at the front until you’re done shopping (IF THAT - bc let’s be real.. them security guards don’t gaf) You were most definitely profiled.
Confused how the “security” guard said that it was their policy when people walk in with bags to ask them what’s in it. As someone who often carries a purse, I have not ever, EVER, been asked what was in my bag. He was profiling you PERIOD.
The Black and Brown coalition is non existent. I love how the security guy try to pull the "I'm Puerto Rican" card as if Latinos don't have their own issues with colorism and anti-Blackness GTFOH
@@Justagirl77368 Yup! I cannot recall specific names, but I'm now thinking about that incident in NYC a few months back involving an adult woman who physically assaulted a Black boy because she thought that he stole her cellphone. She also pulled the "I'm not racist because I'm Puerto Rican" card 😒
@@swiggs_7 both of those people are white puerto Ricans. Latinos can be black white or brown. White Latinos only care about telling people where they from when they're accused of racism. Darker Latinos who are black or native descendant face a ton of discrimination
I love how the security guard tried to deflect by saying "Oh yeah you had the stripes on your backpack right?! Yeah I was admiring that!" Umm boy bye! Also you know the black clerk had to lie and say she's never been followed around at a store because she was still on the job! Her answer will change after work though, bet! I did crack up when you said, oh I'm sure you'll experience that someday soon! Unfortunately, yes, yes she will.
That’s weird, I mostly walk to a store with a backpack on and I was never stopped. You were definitely racially profiled. For them to even approach you and assume that you were stealing just for carrying a backpack when you gave them an answer, they should be sued
Yeah it’s definitely giving lawsuit that’s why they were so adamant about giving him the run around. Start threatening them with lawsuits they tone will change 😂 Too many contradictions on their behalf. & you have proof of everything 😂 see they messed up
Corporate straight up ran from you. I'm sharing this on my Facebook page to help make sure it goes public. Your phone call with corporate upset me more than the actual incident. I want this video to get as many views as possible. You're at approximately 81,000 views now. Let's get it up to 200,000 by the end of this week.
I woulda took every item I bought back in the store and returned it . Then asked for the store GM and got that handled on site and there woulda been a solution right then & there. Period. Glad you escalated the issue. Don’t let it go.
No Troyce , stores are not supposed to approach yu unless they know you stole and not until you're leaving the store . And they're not supposed to ask about your backpack unless once again they know for a fact they stole. You CAN SUE THEM !! We have 5 steps in the apprehension process for a reason!
Yea, I live in England and there used to be a show about shop lifters... The security guard stopped her but couldn't find anything on her, and was a bit worried as they said a guard can lose his job, and in fact his whole licence, for stopping someone who hasn't stolen anything... Lucky fir him This girl had stuff on her, but had a concealed compartment in her bag
@@dellawatson1669 yes , as you said lucky for him because he messed up . They are supposed to see the concealment whether in person or on camera , so they can verify exactly where the stolen items are with confidence , and be sure they are not "accusing" anyone of stealing . You get terminated for things like that !! You're supposed to keep constant surveillance so yu miss no actions.
Not every black person has experienced that. I haven’t and I’m 25. But I know things like that happen often to many people. We do not all have the same experiences at the same time. She was just being honest.
Not the assistant store manager trying to throw around the angry black person stereotype at you?! Chile I’m so glad you got this on camera. They always do this behind closed doors or when nobody is paying attention but bish they got caught todayyyy👆🏾😌💃🏾
There is no point arguing with fools. When they glared at you, you should have turned around and taken each and everything back and gotten your money back.
That’s what I did with Marshall’s when I used to work there. I wasn’t given any breaks at all (even with doctor’s note because of my medical condition) and complaining to the manager was like complaining to a brick wall. I end up writing a 2 weeks notice letter (with request to be forwarded to HR) and left without looking back.
I get not wanting to go through the stress of pursuing it but personally I think things like this might happen less often if they know they can't give black people the run around and get away with it. Most black people at most just get angry and move on and they know that. I've noticed a big difference in how situations like this have gone down after I got a lawyer. I know people that were being harassed by cops and were let go after mentioning their lawyer too. Oh course that won't always work but I think a lot of the reason why they get so bold with us it that they don't think black people will complain the way other groups do and that we don't have any power or connections. I'm glad he did this. I'm sure that location will be a lot more careful with how they treat their black customers from now on at the very least. Hopefully they end up hearing it from corporate too. This ain't a good look for them
I worked at a grocery store held different positions and The “store manager” definitely is lying bc in most grocery stores there is a office with cameras of the entire store with different angles that only the store manager and loss prevention (if they have them) can access, and also in certain grocery stores loss prevention are the ones that watch the cameras all day
If he really wanted to know if you had groceries from another store then why didn’t he ask that? Just asking a customer ‘what do you have in your back pack’ is weird
Which is funny because their culture is heavy on colorism . That may have worked on the west coast , but those from Ny, nj , and Florida , truly knows that Puerto Rican , Dominicans , Cubans , Caribbean Latinos etc have a culture that’s very colorist .
This happened to me in a Grocery store in London and I literally contacted the store manager. After I paid for all my food and left I was told to come back and taken in the back which is a tiny room and i felt really intimated- and ask to show my receipts, they started picking random things of the receipt and asked me to find them in my bag and show them- I said no that’s YOUR Job! anyways I proved I didnt steal anything and there was no apology I sent an email and contacted head office and they were very empathetic the store manager called me - apologised - watched the cameras and i informed me that the security guard was in the wrong and they fired him. They also said they would do more training with their staff on dealing with situations like these and gave me a $200 store card. Good for you I am glad you took this further
I used to go to the store I'm a darkskin women with my lightskin friends and the clerks would follow me but wouldn't follow my friends. My friends were even stealing but they were following me.

If your skin was any other color & you asked in the same manner you did, I guarantee that word wouldn't have been used & you wouldn't have been accused of being something you're not! It's almost a way to deflect from the overall issue at hand, and to make it seem like we're the problem. Gaslighting technically. Sorry this happened to you Troyce & this is the reality we face in backwards America
I guarantee they would not have! I'm a middle eastern/armenian woman and went to best buy and was way worse than troyce (because they kept messing up my tv delivery, one didn't come, one was broken) and I went in there and I told the employees I need to speak to a supervisor right now. They never called me aggressive! And even though the manager was panicking a little he never told me to calm down or anything. In fact he was extremely apologetic. I have not heard any sincere apologies from any of the employees in this video. I'm glad troyce is doing this. These corporations do the fake woke and BLM shit and then don't know how to act when there is real discrimination in their stores.
SERIOUSLY
He has no right to ask you “What’s in your backpack! That’s like asking a woman in a store “what’s in your purse” or asking someone what’s in your pockets. Like WTF, that’s so inappropriate!!!! He needs to mind his damn business.
This happened to me in Kroger...it was so crazy and inappropriate!!!
Unreasonable search and seizure
@@Irodmel the security guard was wrong but neither of those two things happened

Sometimes I like to follow the employee who is ‘watching’ me, so they get confused lol
😂I love this idea?
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I do this! And if they start pretending to look at say a soda or something I start looking at the same type of soda beside them. If it's an individual item that they're pretending to adjust, I wait next to them like I'm waiting for them to finish so that I can look at that item for purchase. 😂
Sameeeee!
That is just so messed up you have people following you. I’d get so upset as well. Nobody deserve this and I KNEW white women who would steal wine etc. Not me because I will not go to jail over some dumb thing. These were grown women. Grown white women.

So I definitely feel how irritating the situation is.
Was the other person with a backpack non Black? If so , there's your answer.
The problem is not that he asked you three times. It’s that he asked about your bag in the first place. That means the store suspects you of stealing. My response would’ve been, “Why are you asking? Do you suspect me of stealing?” I wouldn’t have left the store until I spoke with the manager. I would’ve then asked the manager if it was their company policy to ask customers about the contents of personal bags?

Troyce, the fact that corporate asked you for your shopper’s card number was simply to see how valuable of a customer you were. Since you did not have one, they probably thought they didn’t have to put up with your complaints since you weren’t a loyal customer anyway

Troyce that customer service number you called was a scam, thats why he asked for your card number. That happened to me before I googled an amazon customer service number but it was actually fake and they tried to get my card info, so just be careful because sometimes google don't be putting the right customer service number and the number that is linked is a straight scam. Thats why when you told him you didn't use a card and only had a receipt, he hung up right after.
Tone policing is NOT OKAY!!! that assistant manager should not have said your coming off aggressive. Obviously you are not happy with how you were being treated and then he has the audacity to tone police you. You should add that you your report troyce
My biggest pet peeve is being followed or ask a billion questions in the store. I’ve been followed to the point I just say I’m leaving because I refuse to buy from anyone who profiles me. Like what’s the criteria of questioning someone more than once and following them.
These grocery stores be worse than the fake mall-cop security guards 😂. When they get like that, I’m like this is my sign to ✌🏾
Don't leave.ask them a bunch of questions too
This is why I don’t shop alone
As someone who always let’s it slide, you have encouraged me to speak up. Thank you for your courage.
Troyce they told him to do it because when I work at Target they had security follow and watch black people around the store!
that's fucked.
Wow smh... not surprising though
I am half Puerto Rican and I know lots of Puerto Rican’s who are racist so just bc you’re Puerto Rican doesn’t mean you’re not racist.
Yes because I grew up around them, I'm from NY, and they were very anti-black. Not all of them though but yeah u get what I'm saying
I’m Mexican & Their are lot of Hispanics who are anti- black

Troyce. I’m an LA native. They never ask what’s in your bag.. the most they do is ask that if you have a bigger bag you leave it at the front until you’re done shopping (IF THAT - bc let’s be real.. them security guards don’t gaf) You were most definitely profiled.
Confused how the “security” guard said that it was their policy when people walk in with bags to ask them what’s in it. As someone who often carries a purse, I have not ever, EVER, been asked what was in my bag. He was profiling you PERIOD.
Men with bags constantly get profiled 😒 sad but true. Society is misogynistic and figures women wont carry anything lethal in a PURSE
@fright car No, bombs aren’t really common in the US. Where do you live?

No Troyce , stores are not supposed to approach yu unless they know you stole and not until you're leaving the store . And they're not supposed to ask about your backpack unless once again they know for a fact they stole. You CAN SUE THEM !! We have 5 steps in the apprehension process for a reason!
Yea, I live in England and there used to be a show about shop lifters... The security guard stopped her but couldn't find anything on her, and was a bit worried as they said a guard can lose his job, and in fact his whole licence, for stopping someone who hasn't stolen anything...

@@dellawatson1669 yes , as you said lucky for him because he messed up .

Not every black person has experienced that. I haven’t and I’m 25. But I know things like that happen often to many people. We do not all have the same experiences at the same time. She was just being honest.
This is amazing. Standing up for yourself. Many black people, including me, will never go to this extent. I like the Karen energy.
Sometimes in these situations you're gonna have to out Karen Karen. Just give those haters a taste of their own medicine.
Not the assistant store manager trying to throw around the angry black person stereotype at you?! Chile I’m so glad you got this on camera. They always do this behind closed doors or when nobody is paying attention but bish they got caught todayyyy👆🏾😌💃🏾
There is no point arguing with fools. When they glared at you, you should have turned around and taken each and everything back and gotten your money back.
That’s what I did with Marshall’s when I used to work there. I wasn’t given any breaks at all (even with doctor’s note because of my medical condition) and complaining to the manager was like complaining to a brick wall. I end up writing a 2 weeks notice letter (with request to be forwarded to HR) and left without looking back.
Yeah. I agree this whole back and forth is so not worth it in my opinion.!’ At least he recorded tho
I get not wanting to go through the stress of pursuing it but personally I think things like this might happen less often if they know they can't give black people the run around and get away with it. Most black people at most just get angry and move on and they know that.
I've noticed a big difference in how situations like this have gone down after I got a lawyer. I know people that were being harassed by cops and were let go after mentioning their lawyer too. Oh course that won't always work but I think a lot of the reason why they get so bold with us it that they don't think black people will complain the way other groups do and that we don't have any power or connections.
I'm glad he did this. I'm sure that location will be a lot more careful with how they treat their black customers from now on at the very least. Hopefully they end up hearing it from corporate too. This ain't a good look for them
I worked at a grocery store held different positions and The “store manager” definitely is lying bc in most grocery stores there is a office with cameras of the entire store with different angles that only the store manager and loss prevention (if they have them) can access, and also in certain grocery stores loss prevention are the ones that watch the cameras all day
Thank you, I know this because I worked at a fast food restaurant and we had to review the cameras to see who stole a regulars basketball.
If he really wanted to know if you had groceries from another store then why didn’t he ask that? Just asking a customer ‘what do you have in your back pack’ is weird

Which is funny because their culture is heavy on colorism . That may have worked on the west coast , but those from Ny, nj , and Florida , truly knows that Puerto Rican , Dominicans , Cubans , Caribbean Latinos etc have a culture that’s very colorist .
This happened to me in a Grocery store in London and I literally contacted the store manager.
After I paid for all my food and left I was told to come back and taken in the back which is a tiny room and i felt really intimated- and ask to show my receipts, they started picking random things of the receipt and asked me to find them in my bag and show them- I said no that’s YOUR Job! anyways I proved I didnt steal anything and there was no apology
I sent an email and contacted head office and they were very empathetic
the store manager called me - apologised - watched the cameras and i informed me that the security guard was in the wrong and they fired him.
They also said they would do more training with their staff on dealing with situations like these and gave me a $200 store card.
Good for you I am glad you took this further
