Missouri Water Park Cancels Black Family's Party | ‘What Are You Scared Of, Lee’s Summit?

Black people, this is a good reason to please start investing in black owned businesses and support black owned businesses.

SHE SAID IT ALL, WHEN SHE SAID,WE CAN DO WHAT WE WANT THAT SAID IT ALL...

"We are a public entity" OMG that is a gigantic lawsuit.

Was she”uncomfortable” with ALL the $$$$ the family spent?!?!

Absolutely disgusting! I found it interesting watching her squirm when asked several times what she didn't feel "comfortable" with. She said exactly enough by not saying anything!

When she said, no the police are here for me, paints the entire picture.

This is heartbreakingly disgusting‼️ Her words and body language said it all‼️ As a white woman married to a black man/family and my white son from a previous marriage married to a black women we deal with racism all the time in many different ways. My husband and I have black grandchildren and biracial grandchildren and so we have a completely blended family that’s beautiful but the sadness we have to deal with at times from others ignorance is disrespectful but it’s also the way the world is now a days. I pray this gets out all over for many others to see and they file actions and even actions against her.

This is ridiculous and I am sorry that family had to endure that type of behavior.

She was so proud to say theses (cops)are for me.🤦🏿‍♀️Karen is going to have a bad Friday she famous.😁

So, when are we gonna stop letting them do this?! Companies show us often how they feel about us and we still patronize them. STOP DOING THAT!!! Stop giving them money. I've heard people say "black people are forgiving". Stop being like that (in terms of spending our money). When the companies discriminate, don't spend your money there. Starbucks, Denny's and now this place.

She said I’m “uncomfortable” because of social media? I think sometimes I rather go back to when they would just say it in your face.

As a child, I was left out of birthday parties for classmates because of racism. Hearing the other kids discuss the party in class on Monday morning only heightened the shame and frustration I felt. Seeing this and other racist incidents returns me to those feelings. Please note I haven't mentioned what kind of racism I faced. Color? Creed? Culture? Does it matter?

I understand their frustration. However, I’m not arguing with someone to take my money. I would have politely took my full refund and asked for her reasoning in writing and filed a civil suit. You have to beat them at their own game. I’ve been through similar situations with these kinds of people who think they can make up things as they go. I remained calm, put on my business face and quietly handled the situation behind the scenes.

It’s time to stand up and stick together as a people we can unit and do anything we want buy our own for our own

That's outrageous!!!! Especially canceled on the day of the party, there's so much wrong with this!!!

I’m from the U.K. and I’m absolutely disgusted with this incident against this family This should not be happening in today’s society I hope the family take this further and get their justice How sad that this goes on Best wishes to the family

I wouldn’t even have stood there talking to them. Just give me my refund now and I’ll keep it moving and I would never do any business with them again. Once I feel discriminated against by a business I never return. I know it’s upsetting but we as black people need to realize that no matter how much we yell it won’t make certain businesses treat us fairly. We just have to permanently boycott these places when we find out that they are like that. I know we feel like we shouldn’t have to because we are American but why would you want to give your money to and go to a place where you we’ll be mistreated or made to feel unwelcome because of the color of your skin? I’d just plan another party for my child.

We need to create our own spaces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They called the police to be there when you arrived. This was not a criminal matter when she refused their entrance and cancelled their party. The cancellation was a civil matter. Sue the shit out of them and the police. The cops knew it was civil and should have conveyed that to the park rep.

I'm so sorry this happened! You had a contract and there was no legitimate reason your event didn't occur!
