    A man has gone viral on social media after claiming that he only experiences racism from Black women.

    In the video, a clip from a Black TikToker poses the question: What the most unbelievably racist thing that's ever happened to you?'

    The video then switches to the white male who begins:

    "So my daughter is Black," he says in the clip. "I adopted her when she was two years old. Her biological father took off. Didn't want to have anything to do with her."

    He then launches into the encounter:

    "One day when she was seven years old, we were eating at one of the more famous barbecue places in Kansas city. And the waitress, happened to be an elderly Black woman, came up and she said, 'Oh, look at you. You're cute. Cutie. Where your daddy at?"

    His daughter then responds, "Well, he's right there. She goes, 'No, I mean, your real daddy. Where are your real daddy at?"

    He was caught off guard by the question.

    "I said, 'Excuse me, I'm a real father. And she goes, 'You can't be her real father. He then asked her why he couldn't be the child's birth father.

    "What the hell are you going to teach her about being Black? What the hell are you going to teach her about her Black culture?" the woman replied.

    He says it was then that he decided to wrap it up and leave.

    "But needless to say, we got up and got to the car. And I got to explain to a very upset little seven-year-old girl, what the woman meant by 'I wasn't her real father' and I wasn't going to be able to teach her about being Black." He adds, "I would like to say that was an isolated incident, but in the 12 years, since that happened--- no---we've experienced plenty of racism, almost exclusively by Black people."

    In the comments, people expressed that what he experienced was prejudice and not racism.

    Sounds familiar. I am multiracial. Biggest challenge the racism of black people especially black women. Empower your daughter never to fall for race shaming from anyone,and she is no one's victim. People are divided by cultures, spend time with people whom you share similar cultures with. She does not need to qualify or choose, she is uniquely her own person. Teach her to never give her power away.God chose you to be her father. Blessing for both of you.The woman in the restaurant, she's a learning lesson,you and your daughter likely don't share the same culture and values.
