I was at a pedestrian crossing yesterday. There was a lull in people crossing as I approached. A family approached at the same time. A car stopped to allow us to cross. The man (accompanied by adult female companion, couple of teenagers and two younger ones) didn't start crossing but was looking into the car at the occupants. It happened to be a black male driver and female companion. The 'family' man just said out ( I guess for the benefit of his companions 'go on you black b--'. There was a bit of a snigger from the teenagers and we all crossed. I thought this was kind of ridiculous but nasty. It was so casual and such a cheap little comment.
