Short Story -

The following scene took place on a flight between Pittsburgh and
Vancouver to someone we know.

A white woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a native man.
Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess.
'Madam, what is the matter,' the hostess asked.
'You obviously do not see it then?' she responded. 'You placed me next
to a native man. I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a
group of people, give me an alternative seat.'
'Be calm please,' the hostess replied. 'Almost all the places on this
flight are taken. I will go to see if another place is available.'

The Hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later.
'Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the
economy class. I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is
also no seat in the business class. All the same, we still have one
place in the first class.'

Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued.

'It is not usual for our company to permit someone from the economy
class to sit in the first class However, given the circumstances, the
captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to
someone so ignorant.'

She turned to the native guy, and said.

'Therefore, Mr. Black Bull, if you would like to, please take your hand
luggage because a seat awaits you in the first class.'

At the moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded...
