Rasict Store Manager Blackheath
I was in the Blackheath area as I was looking to get a home gym I pop in to the sportsman's Warehouse in Blackheath only to be profiled because I was black I was followed around the store and I had intended to purchase a home gym to the value of 100 thousand this made me feel extremely uncomfortable because I noticed that I was being targeted because of the colour of my skin. This culminated in me deciding to leave the store only to realise there were two armed men who had been brought into the store to follow me around which would never happen if I was white or Indian. To think in this modern South Africa in the year 2021 black South Africans must be made to feel uncomfortable when we spend our money because of the colour of our skin the manager of the store in particular was an Indian man I never once engage with any of the staff members as I already knew what I was looking for but the manager made sure that I feel uncomfortable and subsequently leave the store without making a purchase I will never spend my money with sportsman's Warehouse in this country and as a matter of fact I believe I have the right to take this further and let the whole country know and I'll be sharing this on my platform on my socials every single day so that all South Africans understand that sportsman's Warehouse is not unless dablish me where you should spend your money.
