At this point I’ve seen four videos with four different black children the same day and they snub them all. These employees don’t need to be retrained they need to be replaced if these employees are not going to embody the respect,love and Equality as the character on the show then send them on their way!!!
@@JasonUr you sound very educated. But it's crazy to use something that has been systematically used against us for decades. How can someone play a victim when you are forced into the role🤷🏾 Make it make sense
It IS imagined. BECAUSE there's never any possible or logical conclusion that could be for anything that goes wrong, except "RACISM" Your first instinct is always racism And you wonder why you don't see more progress in the black community It's because you buy into this paranoid theory that there's "RACISM" around every corner & you blame "RACISM" for every single failure in your life, instead of taking personal responsibility. You're in a never ending vicious cycle of perpetual victimhood. And because that, you walk into everything w/ preconceived ideas of racism & a self defeatist attitude
@@kleeamd8274 you can only imagine but don't know what Blks go through that never sees the day of light, it's very easy for you to fix your mouth and come in here to lecture people that are the recipient of your racist evil ways that they are overacting and conceiving things that are not there. Do we live in a segregated America yes or no? The justice system is also biased also. We have an incident in Kentucky and Georgia where a WM had shot a cop and injured many somehow he ended up being arrested and not killed the same reason they claim are why they shoot unarmed BLK men" he was resisting arrest " complete BS was I imagining that too?? That's why the blk community is not progressing really? When you're constantly dealing with the effect of racism it leaves little room to have a productive day asswipe!
Actually there is a series of videos with other characters acting the same way. No amount of training will teach people to not be prejudiced. Fire them.
Exactly! You can't "train" someone not to be racist. FIRE THEM and replace them with people who see others as individuals rather than what their race is.
@@jackiehines6856 Nothing but facts. You are absolutely correct. I'm sick and tired of it and have been for a very long time. That's why I don't cape for other groups and I focus on my own because I don't do it, no one else will.
It wasn't just Rosita. They're are other characters that snubbed and dismissive to brown kids. Then the cacucasity of the park to initially say what we saw is NOT what we saw. Really?
In all those other clips it just shows a few seconds, that doesn't really prove anything other than a kid was ignored at that time. Is there video that shows the same mascot consistently doing it during the same parade? We don't see the rest of the parade where they could've done the same thing to Yt kids. People are just so quick to label everything as ray cist. Which is why so many people doubt the claims when they hear it. You can only cry wolf so many times.
Yea that’s right. The person playing Rosita was seen doing that hand gesture many times throughout the parade. She said some people were wanting the characters to hold their babies for a picture and they are not allowed…. The mother who was behind the mother of the two little girls being one of them. So she did that hand gesture as if saying sorry not allowed. I’m sure white kids were overlooked too as they can’t stop at everyone but no one notices or thinks anything about that. Do you really think seasame street would risk their reputation by so blatantly just overlooking black children ? Of course not. It’s all a misunderstanding as a lot of things are. I am sure the children were upset as any kid would be and it prob hurt the mom seeing the hurt look on her kids face but that doesn’t mean the gesture was directed at them or racist in any way. Many people are saying the character looked directly at them but the character was just facing that way, in that costume you can’t tell where the actual person was looking.
@@brittanywilliams8653 it wasn’t even proven if that was from the same parade. It’s just as bad to blame the person playing this character of being racist when that may not be true. Imagine having all this hate coming at you and being accused of things that aren’t true over a misunderstanding? If someone wants to scream racist they need real proof and not assumptions. This character WAS seen doing this hand gesture through the parade so it’s not an excuse. People should not be so quick to judge but take a step back and think on it and see if maybe this was a misunderstanding after all. There is real racism out there but it’s not in everything or every incident. I don’t cast blame or point fingers without knowing all the details.
That person in the costume had one job, to make all the children happy! What a privilege, and this person did the opposite. The optics of these moments are mean and cruel.
Wow... Lemme tell you. I just spent the weekend AT This Sesame Place with my wife and kids, half the employees were quite rude, HATED being there clearly. Not inviting. It was a shame we didn't see ANY mascots walking around at all, or see any mascots even standing or walking like this anymore in the parade BECAUSE of this incident now. It's an absolute shame. This is a good thing that this went viral, Sesame place needs to rehire A LOT of employees... There were quite a few nice employees of course but the overall experience was very rough. I feel for the family for dealing with this situation. I'd be devastated and PISSED.
Caught with what? A character didn’t acknowledge a couple children? Are they required to high five and shake hands with every person there? 🤦🏻♀️ The people under the costume are human. They aren’t perfect. Things happen. The guy or girl in the costume got distracted at that moment. The fact that the reporter said the girls are in counseling because of this is more disturbing to me.
@@JB-pl1iu “Grow a spine”, right but the green M&M not wearing heels, not saying “Merry Christmas”, destroying Keurigs, freaking out over black people on TV… yeah you should take your own advice.
This has been happening for years. During a trip to Canada in 2009, a white stilt performer kept refusing me a balloon but proceeded to give balloons to white children (with a smile)😄. I stood there for 5 minutes with my hand out and there was no queue. The performer eventually gave me one (with an attitude ofc) after being confronted by my father. No smile for me and a different vibe lol. It was a disgusting experience and it’s unfortunate that this behavior still persists amongst performers, especially towards children.

I did mascot work for a few days at Dorney park when I was 21 years old. They were understaffed and they just needed bodies for a few days. Long story short, I wore the Crash Bandicoot costume because it was a huge gimmicky costume that only a fit person could wear. A female coordinator was with me at all times to give me instructions in real time. They do follow a strict pattern of rules. The coordinator's job is Security/Instructor. She basically treated me like a puppet telling me what to do and when to do it. I was fine with it because she was the expert, not me. With so many people walking around, you are just better off letting the pros handle it. Some of their rules are if adults want to interact, only do it face to face and only touch their shoulders, nothing else. You can barely see while wearing the costume, so you could accidently side slap a woman's boob if you get too touchy. Kids, only tap their heads, that's all. If people want a photo, the coordinator has to do the setup and they do it very quick snapping to get everyone moving. You don't pick up kids in your arms because the costume material is very slippery. The video here is a float parade. They have everything timed and orchestrated. The costume people can't stop for photos because it disrupts the parade movement. They have everything timed to every millisecond. They have to move from point A to B, then they all take a water/food/bathroom break, then do it again and again in a loop all day. If it makes you feel any better, that line of work is brutal, long, and the pay is nothing, as in single digits. There's no way one person can get by on what they pay. I only did it as a quick pocket money weekend gig. I didn't even know I was going to be wearing a costume. I just simply got a call to go there to earn quick money. And I would never EVER do that kind of work ever again. I would much rather beg for money than do that kind of work.
Sesame Street ended a long time ago. Now its just living up to the Dark Knight quote which is a real shame. It deserved better a better ending than this.
Kelly was actually on Sesame Street, this is so ironic 😅 but anyways, racism or not, I feel so bad for the girls like you could see the sadness in their faces. NO kid deserves that..
@Trinity M it's not racist and that's the truth plus why would be upset if the characters didn't hug they child how you didn't know if that person wasn't a pedo and why would you pay to get into a park just for a pedo hug your child and hope you know that none of those suits get washed so think about how fucking those suit have to be when they hug your kids
It’s a shame because I’ve been to the park on a couple of occasions and had the same thing happened where they don’t greet all the children. So what I think needs to happen is the character should not be allowed to go to any children if they can’t greet them all they shouldn’t greet any.

Ya'll are bonkers, these people didnt take these low paying jobs to be racist , its probably really hot in the costume, they cant see well and not it is impossible to interact with everyone in the parade
I always say that Americans are way too sensitive... but in THIS case- yeah- when you're ignored when you're a child- it stays with you for a long time.
And then they grow up and learn that getting picked up by strangers is against the policy. Maybe it ain't like that with *Knott's Berry Farm* and Disneyland (which is hella expensive ).
I'm have race cards for sale. Widely accepted by most public and private parties. I also have race stickers for those racist inanimate objects... ( facial recognition cameras ect...)
I kept hearing references to to this viral video and this is my 1st time seeing it. I like to keep an open mind that maybe it was blown out of proportion, but the fact that the actor said NO and shook its finger is pretty damning. Those girls just wanted a little love from characters they love. That was personal.

Honestly I don't see it being racism. Not everything is racist. She did say no to other kids and these costumes are hard to see and they can't talk. How else do you tell kids they can't touch or hug when thr kids are preparing to hug them?
Its not an isolated incident there's more videos on Instagram same scenario same character so please don't try to make excuses for this disgusting behaviour it's not something that can be justified it's a clear pattern!!!
@@95luannaable Those videos are quick clips from different parades. You have no idea what happened during the rest of the parade and how many other children of all races were skipped over. Show the whole parade where the mascot avoided all blk children of you want to prove it. If you're just going to show little clips it proves nothing, because seconds before they avoid the blk child they could've also avoided a few yt children.
@@DarkPassenger I wish I had the power to bring all the clips because I want to see as well. However, I’m willing to bet that they ignored black children many times more than they ignored other children. I watched many videos and I saw the same treatment for black kids by the same character and other ones too.
Ight this is now getting ridiculous….. no folks are going after something this stupid. There’s clearly no racist intent. The folks in those costumes are hot, sweaty, tired, paid like crap, and working in hot weather. If two or more kids didn’t get a high five, then that’s fine.
Ignorance? Absolutely not....I completely disagree with you! Ignorance simply means that one doesn't know or isn't aware. There was no ignorance involved in this incident whatsoever; that bigot knew EXACTLY what they were dong when they excluded and shunned those babies! What a shame.
I see no way that the person in that costume didn't see those children. It looks like they looked right at them and that's wrong . Even if they were waving off another family he looked right at those kids .
@@alostbard well the front of the costume was right in front of them - even if their head was turned aside at one moment they would have seen - There is no way to argue this one. At some point, they would have seen! The kids before them and right after them all got attention
Oh spare me! This is ridiculous! You only see in black and white. The reason you think this is racist is because you deep down want it to be, now that's what's sad.
The more you give them The more they take a sad day indeed poor Sesame Street all those decades of BrotherlyLovingly, purposely, systematically _(some would say propagandically)_ teaming the little black boy up with the white girl on children's TV projects teaching them not to be afraid no matter what their fathers murmured behind closed doors..and this is the thanks they get for all those good deeds 😅
@@dianaross-dubbed5594 ...bro, I love when leftards think everyone who doesn't share their delusion needs help, my favorite and then want the person demonized, censored, and cancelled you're a cult you must be destroyed
Obviously, the executives had not seen the other videos of this character doing this to other black children. Over and over again… They should be ashamed of the insensitivity of the initial statement. What a miserable person to do this to children.
Horrible!!! It appears exactly what it is. I can't believe that. Many of us grew up watching Sesame Street as children,including myself.This speaks volumes. Their faces showed hurt and disappointment and Sesame Place needs to be made responsible for this unacceptable behavior. The actor needs to be fired.
Guys, have you ever warn a mascot costume like that?... About 90% of your vision is obscured, you are not looking out of the EYES of the costume and you are not receiving any physical feedback from your immediate area because those costumes are thick. I sincerely doubt sesame street is racist
That doesn’t make any sense at all the other kids he was hugging he could see them but all of a sudden when he got to the black kids his vision is blurry but he could wave no at them and then proceeds to hug other kids y’all make excuse for racism all the time
white and spanish children are also skipped as well..the girls need help if they cant go get ice cream and get over it. this is why they could be bullied at school now. not every kid gets a hug or a picture it happens to white kids also.But I wont sue over it, I guess I should. disneyland is always rude at the parade and some rides so I should sue them??
We know that the characters won't be able to hug every single person in the park, but when kids are all up in your face like the two little girls were, don't snub them like that. How heartbreaking for the kids. Rosita is my favorite character, now this clown has tarnished her name.
All the other videos that feature black children. There are almost certainly cases involving white children. Racism gets way way more clicks and unfortunately thats what the news cares about
Well, they DID apologize, Dude. They explained the situation. It is against the policy to pick up the kids. Yet most certain people somehow still can't get it through their heads.
How disgusting! How can they do that to little children! I really hope they make up for it and that these little girls get lots of love from a lot of people that do care about everyone else, no matter our color.
Wow this is clearly not racism. smh. It's policy that no character should pick up any guest at the park. The character was not telling the kids no it was telling someone else no also it looks like one of the kids was looking to be picked up.. People are always looking to play the victim these day's .
OMG but did you see the TV interview? the white anchor never even once looked to the mothers side of the screen. She must be racist too.. Lets cancel every station that aired that interview!!
The ‘great mother’ pouring fuel on racial tensions. This situation is so trivial. You and everyone else has condemned a person in a costume, and yet you (and everyone else) have no idea what persuasion the person in the costume is. And this is exactly why racism won’t ever go away….YOU!!
That is a LIE, there were several videos that came out that show ROSITA hugging white children and NO ONE asked her to take a picture!!! After Sesame discovered another video showed that was a LIE, that issued another statement acknowledging wrong doing!!
@@BygSexyToy1 That is a LIE! Shortly after other videos proofed that wasn't true Sesame Street issued 2 additional statements acknowledging wrong doing!!
People often give requests that can’t be accommodated and it’s super hard to see and the parade is really fast paced. It’s sad for the girls that they didn’t get hugs, but it wasn’t intentional or racist. It’s just the nature of having a parade like that. The same exact thing happens to plenty of white kids too, but no one cares when that happens.
Not OK but that doesn't mean they deserve a payday. If they wouldn't make a big deal out of it, these girls would forget about it. It's different of this would cause PTSD. Life is tough all around. U don't always get ur way.
Lmao what a joke the news media has become. The girls will remember this forever because of the news media social media and parents filing a lawsuit. This happened to my kid 10 years ago and we shook it off and moved on with life.
@@RadicalSpirit78 Lady, the news media owns you...they are your daddy. Did they mention the race of the person in costume? Are we to assume the race of the person is not a person of color? Wouldn't assuming race be systematic racism? I mean look at that ugly costume. I wouldn't want that ugly thing hugging me. The family sued for 10 million over a hug. So when my kid did not get hugged, should I have assumed the person in costume was a racist? Go see a psychiatrist. You sound like a racist and black supremacist. Race being used as a weapon here. Black supremacy at its finest.
I'm sure you not getting enough dipping sauce at some restaurant is also "that" as well. We all know how some people go off over every perceived slight.
@@WillmobilePlus Forgetting dipping sauce is one thing, this is like asking for dipping sauce and having the restaurant staff gesture you to f**k yourself
No apologies for this racist move. I have never seen a character treat children in this racist manner. Every child should be acknowledged with a smile, high five, something. You don't treat children in this manner, especially when a character is known to be fun, loving to children. As stupid as it might seem or feel. There are still people stupid enough to be racist at a time when laws discourage racist. The only way to make it heard out loud to those stupid people is to sue them. Nobody wants to be sued, like nobody wants to be treated racially.
It looks pretty intentional...no way Rosita didn't see the girls that is just impossible! ...It can look simple but the damage in the emotional level for this girls is serious. No one likes to be rejected, specifically no because of your color 😢
It is bad , but those kids have no idea if it was colored based , their parents didn't have to make them feel worse about the situation and tell them its about their skin color .
@@aishaf.6153 the girl'ss parents should absolutely tell them the truth. It's unfortunate but Black children have to be taught these things for the preservation of self.
Why did the person dressed in the costume wave his/her finger at someone, right before saying no to the two little girls? Hmmm? The person in the costume is at fault- not the character Rosita. She’s a good character on Sesame Street, please don’t get rid of her! Sesame Street isn’t to blame.
Fake racism brought to you by confirmation bias. Not that this character wasn't an ass but there is really no good reason to believe this is because of their race.
Let's just air only the videos of black children being mistreated and not any with white children. Because thats sound journalism that won't aggravate racial divides
To all the simple minded mfs in the comments: 1. The character clearly saw the children, saw there hands out, and ignored them. 2. Rosita specifically did this 3 times in this same parade. The one in the video wasn’t even the most apparent one. 3. Other characters in the park were doing the same thing 4. No white families have uploaded videos of their white kids being ignored, and I doubt any of them have any videos of it. 5. Stop accusing racism just because it happens all the time in other parks, just because it happens a lot doesn’t mean it’s ok. 6. You gotta realize that they’re little kids, their hearts are fragile and when they get ignored meanwhile everyone else doesn’t, they’re gonna feel awful. 7. Sesame Street themselves are not responsible, you cannot change someone’s views on something just because you put them through the training to do so. This isn’t Sesame Street’s fault and more so the costume character’s fault themselves. 8. Sure it’s hard to see out those costumes but when you have 3 cases of ignoring black children in the same show, it can’t just be a coincidence.
I love how companies throw their employees under the bus when blatant racism is publicized. When everyone knows these companies culture promotes racism at all levels within the organization. I'm sure in this case, the characters are told to have limited to no interaction with black guests at the park.
You are correct. Hotels give Black guests the worse rooms. I've had that experience on many occasions. I ask for a different room and usually will get an upgrade.
Right I'm sure seasame street tells their employees to limit their interactions with blk guests. Do you see how ridiculous you sound? Your the type of person that makes it hard for people who suffer from real ray cism to be taken seriously. You "everything is ray cist" people are insufferable, and don't help out anyone in the process.
@@msnandimarie7023 my husband and I go out to eat at nice restaurants and we always seem to end up by the kitchen. We are white. Things happen. It’s not all racism.
When my son was in high school, he was the finalist for a college scholarship he applied for at a local organization, but when the organization realized that my son is white, the follow-up call never came. When we contacted the organization to find out the status on the scholarship he was told he had won, we were told that the scholarship was given to a black child instead. Discrimination goes both ways.
Why am I the rude one, just because I called them babies, they are in the eyes of their mum. It’s called a term of endearment. You’d better look for a lady called Kathrine Ellis and comment about her point of view if you don’t like people using the word babies, by the way I haven’t seen your view about racism or do you tell people they are rude to called young children Babies.
So the family is suing Sesame Street for $25 MILLION dollars. I'm sure millions of kids from all nationalities get passed over every year because the character is walking a certain pace waving and interacting with everyone. The first thing you wanna do is scream racism and wanna sue the company. Wow... If everyone sued for being snubbed this world would be a messed up place. You think your special because your black? We're all humans and things aren't perfect in your perfect world. I hope when the character takes off the mask they are a black boy or girl... Would you still feel the same if it is? This is an opportunity for the parents to make a bunch of money and that's all this is. Hope this is thrown out of court. Being snubbed by the color of one's skin is hearsay... not admissible in court.
This is absolutely DISGUSTING!! FIRE ALL OF THE EMPLOYEES DISPLAYING SUCH A DEPLORABLE ATTITUDE!! If we want to live in a better world,we should start by practicing being good to EVERYONE regardless of race or creed etc..AND EVERYTHING that is part of our planet!! What saddens me is that that incident will leave a mark in those little girls hearts. How do we expect people to move forward if we continue to perpetuate such kind of behavior???
PUHHHHHLEEEEEZE ... this happens to kids all the time. These characters are innundated. He/She was waving at the girls. They didn't ignore them. This ridiculous entitlement needs to stop already. GTFOH
Your opinion is more than likely from the lens of a privileged white woman. Thus, you can not relate to the experiences of covert racism that occurs more often than realized. It simply is not your reality. These type of incidents are simply a "minor mishap or innocent oversight" to you. Your viewpoint lacks empathy because you cannot relate to a minority when you don't share our everyday experiences. Minorities are very much in tune with our surroundings and hyperviligent of how we are treated differently from our white counterparts. Do not minimize the experiences of minorities because you have yet to walk in our shoes. We don't want your sympathy when we share our experiences. We just want fairness, respect, and equality.
@@OROgoldenpair1 if you notice, in the full video, the person in character was shaking their head no in response to the conversation with the other adult. Pay attention
These girls need to learn that life isn't always fair. I remember being at parades as a child and clowns/elves/other costume characters were walking around high fiving people. Not everyone got high fived. Even me. It was a little disappointing, but my mum said: There's always next year. Seeing the look on these girls faces breaks your heart? What about the children's faces in Ukraine? Some of those children may never see their parents again. Some of them will defiantly not see their parents because they were killed. There are bigger issues in the world right now and two girls not getting attention is not one of them. It's the way life is. Sometimes you will be picked. Other times you won't.
Leftards just can't stop seeing racism everywhere they look without even questioning their mere assumptions. This is getting dumber and dumber every time. You keep falling for the same hook over and over for years. You're simply gullible people who need to be removed from society and shouldn't vote.
At the mentioned of it, I thought not everything is racist, but seeing the video, the hand gesture and seeing other videos is so heartbreaking...the character just high five some other little kids, so don't look any more stupid by saying that they couldn't see the little kids...
@Trinity M Guess what, in a fast paced parade in a bot suit with limited visibility this is just something that happens on a regular basis to everyone. The No was already being waved at someone else. This is a normal, not racial thing. They just cherry picked to make it look racist. This is why people don’t believe you, the imaginary victim hood and crying wolf you are doing right now. You established yourself as uncredible while talking about not being believed. That’s why people don’t take you at face value.
@Trinity M no point in trying to explain. I honestly really try to stay away from news involving black people because the comments are so disturbing and disgusting. It hurts my feelings. People are going to think less of us and our opinions no matter what. It’s very unfortunate how our black community gets treated all because the color of our skin. I’ll never understand it.

I am so happy that this family exposed this incident. It is exactly what it shows. They acknowledge family before them and after them. What? What? Do these companies know what it takes for some families to visit these places that the kids see on tv? Pressure!
It’s a short clip so it’s not easy to see. Ok so the girls didn’t get an handshake. Take them down farther so they can see the character. It very well could absolutely have been an oversight. The person in the costume feels terrible. I wonder why parents are making such big deals when their kids don’t get what they want.
Where does it show the mascot acknowledging the family after them? Dumbass. Also, you overlooked the fact the mascot was waving off white people less than a second before the 2 kids. It was probably all one gesture to say "sorry I gotta move on". Too many people looking for racism. Pathetic.
@Recliner -Rider thats not racism you dope, a woman off screen was gesturing rosita to stop for a quick picture and rosita said no because obviously they were in the middle of a parade. You want to be a victim which is why your a Democrat. Its always racism wah wah wah, ya sorry sack of shit
Hey bud this was blatantly edited to hide the context that the family ahead of them tried to get a picture with the person holding their baby with the costume and its against regulations for blatantly obvious reasons (maybe its not blatant for people to understand that because they blatantly believe obvious doctored footage and its not the first time either)
if you watch the whole video, you can see that the actor in the costume first goes to high five the adult and then shakes their finger at them, then the girls. I read that the actors are not allowed to touch the people. Whom ever was in the costume made a mistake, but that is'nt going to help those kids feelings. however, making telling them it was because they're black is only going to make it worse for them.
Yep and that’s on their mom. She’s the one bringing race into this. There very well could have been a whole other situation going on and because of that the girls were passed by. Totally innocent.
and for all we know the performer is black too. What we do know is that they are wearing a freaking fur costume and walking on asphalt in the sun during the hottest summer on record.
You just showing that clip. he did that to all the black kids, and another character knocked a black little girl down she's was about 3 or4 was pure racism
I saw that clip. He walked to the little girl with his arms outstreched to give hugs, and ran into her knocking her down. Demonstrates to me just how hard it is to see in those costumes.
I'm scared that these kids will grow into people who won't take 'no' for the answer. Also, I heard someone in UA-cam telling 'you're making the situation that nobody wants to be with you'. I fear more and more people will avoid Blacks because they don't want to be labeled as 'racist.' Even it's a heartbreaking for a kids, suing the park is going overboard.
What has the world come to where every little thing is called racist….. i highly doubt the character was like oh no black kids… and the fact they got a Attroney. The parents are literally the definition of Karens that pull the race card for anything
Poor girls, they are devastated with Rositas character, she could have at least given them a high five and kept walking ! The park should simply put up a notice stating that characters cannot carry children for pictures , or ban character pictures during the parade parade like Disney, they can simply do a character meet up!
The first excuse was that the character did not see them and the second excuse was that the character was waving no to another family that wanted to take photos.

At this point I’ve seen four videos with four different black children the same day and they snub them all. These employees don’t need to be retrained they need to be replaced if these employees are not going to embody the respect,love and Equality as the character on the show then send them on their way!!!
How do you know they are from the same day? Also these characters work in shifts so there is no proof it is even the same person.

Well said
It IS imagined. BECAUSE there's never any possible or logical conclusion that could be for anything that goes wrong, except "RACISM"
Your first instinct is always racism
And you wonder why you don't see more progress in the black community
It's because you buy into this paranoid theory that there's "RACISM" around every corner & you blame "RACISM" for every single failure in your life, instead of taking personal responsibility.
You're in a never ending vicious cycle of perpetual victimhood. And because that, you walk into everything w/ preconceived ideas of racism & a self defeatist attitude
@@kleeamd8274 you can only imagine but don't know what Blks go through that never sees the day of light, it's very easy for you to fix your mouth and come in here to lecture people that are the recipient of your racist evil ways that they are overacting and conceiving things that are not there.
Do we live in a segregated America yes or no? The justice system is also biased also. We have an incident in Kentucky and Georgia where a WM had shot a cop and injured many somehow he ended up being arrested and not killed the same reason they claim are why they shoot unarmed BLK men" he was resisting arrest " complete BS was I imagining that too?? That's why the blk community is not progressing really? When you're constantly dealing with the effect of racism it leaves little room to have a productive day asswipe!
Racism is racism no matter how you try to excuse your denial. White supremacy and privileged is still a problem.

What if the person under the costume is BLK though?
It wasn't just Rosita. They're are other characters that snubbed and dismissive to brown kids. Then the cacucasity of the park to initially say what we saw is NOT what we saw. Really?
It's hard to see inside those mascots. I'm pretty sure the person couldn't always see the kids.
In all those other clips it just shows a few seconds, that doesn't really prove anything other than a kid was ignored at that time. Is there video that shows the same mascot consistently doing it during the same parade? We don't see the rest of the parade where they could've done the same thing to Yt kids. People are just so quick to label everything as ray cist. Which is why so many people doubt the claims when they hear it. You can only cry wolf so many times.
Yea that’s right. The person playing Rosita was seen doing that hand gesture many times throughout the parade. She said some people were wanting the characters to hold their babies for a picture and they are not allowed…. The mother who was behind the mother of the two little girls being one of them. So she did that hand gesture as if saying sorry not allowed. I’m sure white kids were overlooked too as they can’t stop at everyone but no one notices or thinks anything about that. Do you really think seasame street would risk their reputation by so blatantly just overlooking black children ? Of course not. It’s all a misunderstanding as a lot of things are. I am sure the children were upset as any kid would be and it prob hurt the mom seeing the hurt look on her kids face but that doesn’t mean the gesture was directed at them or racist in any way. Many people are saying the character looked directly at them but the character was just facing that way, in that costume you can’t tell where the actual person was looking.
There's another video came out of the same character ignoring other black children. But people will keep making excuses.
@@brittanywilliams8653 it wasn’t even proven if that was from the same parade. It’s just as bad to blame the person playing this character of being racist when that may not be true. Imagine having all this hate coming at you and being accused of things that aren’t true over a misunderstanding? If someone wants to scream racist they need real proof and not assumptions. This character WAS seen doing this hand gesture through the parade so it’s not an excuse. People should not be so quick to judge but take a step back and think on it and see if maybe this was a misunderstanding after all. There is real racism out there but it’s not in everything or every incident. I don’t cast blame or point fingers without knowing all the details.
That person in the costume had one job, to make all the children happy! What a privilege, and this person did the opposite. The optics of these moments are mean and cruel.
There are many people working with and for children, who shouldn’t be.

I did mascot work for a few days at Dorney park when I was 21 years old. They were understaffed and they just needed bodies for a few days. Long story short, I wore the Crash Bandicoot costume because it was a huge gimmicky costume that only a fit person could wear. A female coordinator was with me at all times to give me instructions in real time. They do follow a strict pattern of rules. The coordinator's job is Security/Instructor. She basically treated me like a puppet telling me what to do and when to do it. I was fine with it because she was the expert, not me. With so many people walking around, you are just better off letting the pros handle it. Some of their rules are if adults want to interact, only do it face to face and only touch their shoulders, nothing else. You can barely see while wearing the costume, so you could accidently side slap a woman's boob if you get too touchy. Kids, only tap their heads, that's all. If people want a photo, the coordinator has to do the setup and they do it very quick snapping to get everyone moving. You don't pick up kids in your arms because the costume material is very slippery. The video here is a float parade. They have everything timed and orchestrated. The costume people can't stop for photos because it disrupts the parade movement. They have everything timed to every millisecond. They have to move from point A to B, then they all take a water/food/bathroom break, then do it again and again in a loop all day. If it makes you feel any better, that line of work is brutal, long, and the pay is nothing, as in single digits. There's no way one person can get by on what they pay. I only did it as a quick pocket money weekend gig. I didn't even know I was going to be wearing a costume. I just simply got a call to go there to earn quick money. And I would never EVER do that kind of work ever again. I would much rather beg for money than do that kind of work.
That is a very discrimination for Sesame Street

@Trinity M it's not racist and that's the truth plus why would be upset if the characters didn't hug they child how you didn't know if that person wasn't a pedo and why would you pay to get into a park just for a pedo hug your child and hope you know that none of those suits get washed so think about how fucking those suit have to be when they hug your kids
I agree
It’s a shame because I’ve been to the park on a couple of occasions and had the same thing happened where they don’t greet all the children. So what I think needs to happen is the character should not be allowed to go to any children if they can’t greet them all they shouldn’t greet any.
Wow your pretty ignorant
I know it’s so rude maybe a high five instead of hugging them people shouldn’t just walk away like that

Ya'll are bonkers, these people didnt take these low paying jobs to be racist , its probably really hot in the costume, they cant see well and not it is impossible to interact with everyone in the parade
I always say that Americans are way too sensitive... but in THIS case- yeah- when you're ignored when you're a child- it stays with you for a long time.

OMG but did you see the TV interview? the white anchor never even once looked to the mothers side of the screen. She must be racist too.. Lets cancel every station that aired that interview!!
the great mother? you do realize she wants great money for her " troubles". maybe you missed that part
The ‘great mother’ pouring fuel on racial tensions. This situation is so trivial. You and everyone else has condemned a person in a costume, and yet you (and everyone else) have no idea what persuasion the person in the costume is. And this is exactly why racism won’t ever go away….YOU!!
Can no one see that she also shakes her hand no to the white adult next to the black girls as well. This is obviously a lie.
I'm not making excuses for the character Rosita but she was telling someone "no" a second before the little girls incident. What was that about?
the family had a baby and wanted a picture which is against the rules
That is a LIE, there were several videos that came out that show ROSITA hugging white children and NO ONE asked her to take a picture!!! After Sesame discovered another video showed that was a LIE, that issued another statement acknowledging wrong doing!!
Watch all of the other videos.
@@BygSexyToy1 That is a LIE!
Shortly after other videos proofed that wasn't true Sesame Street issued 2 additional statements acknowledging wrong doing!!
People often give requests that can’t be accommodated and it’s super hard to see and the parade is really fast paced. It’s sad for the girls that they didn’t get hugs, but it wasn’t intentional or racist. It’s just the nature of having a parade like that.
The same exact thing happens to plenty of white kids too, but no one cares when that happens.
Not OK but that doesn't mean they deserve a payday. If they wouldn't make a big deal out of it, these girls would forget about it. It's different of this would cause PTSD. Life is tough all around. U don't always get ur way.
It's never what it seems, when they get caught.
context in a story is really important
Thank god for GMA covering these groundbreaking stories. I don’t where we’d be without them. This is incredible journalism!!!!!!!!
Are you being sarcastic or are you being an A hole?
Shut up
Lmao what a joke the news media has become. The girls will remember this forever because of the news media social media and parents filing a lawsuit. This happened to my kid 10 years ago and we shook it off and moved on with life.
@@Now10100 wow you need help for your internalized racism and self hate, please don’t encourage anyone to do the same, it’s sick
@@RadicalSpirit78 Lady, the news media owns you...they are your daddy. Did they mention the race of the person in costume? Are we to assume the race of the person is not a person of color? Wouldn't assuming race be systematic racism? I mean look at that ugly costume. I wouldn't want that ugly thing hugging me. The family sued for 10 million over a hug. So when my kid did not get hugged, should I have assumed the person in costume was a racist? Go see a psychiatrist. You sound like a racist and black supremacist. Race being used as a weapon here. Black supremacy at its finest.
The video is absolutely clearly what it appears to be
I'm sure you not getting enough dipping sauce at some restaurant is also "that" as well. We all know how some people go off over every perceived slight.
@@WillmobilePlus I'm not sure what you are implying? Could you further explain your point of view?
@@alimuh007 Yeah, ok.
Play stupid. Hopefully you can find someone else to play along with you.
@@WillmobilePlus theres more to racism than white cops mudering people of colour you know. you do live on this planet.....right?
@@WillmobilePlus Forgetting dipping sauce is one thing, this is like asking for dipping sauce and having the restaurant staff gesture you to f**k yourself
You lost me at attorney
I love how the character is just like oh no Bonquisha, no high 5 for you 🤣
No apologies for this racist move. I have never seen a character treat children in this racist manner. Every child should be acknowledged with a smile, high five, something. You don't treat children in this manner, especially when a character is known to be fun, loving to children. As stupid as it might seem or feel. There are still people stupid enough to be racist at a time when laws discourage racist. The only way to make it heard out loud to those stupid people is to sue them. Nobody wants to be sued, like nobody wants to be treated racially.
How do you know the race of the character? Was it a racist Asian? Whatever race you guess of the character would be systematic racism right
It's a shame they had to learn how they are looked upon by this country so young.
It looks pretty intentional...no way Rosita didn't see the girls that is just impossible! ...It can look simple but the damage in the emotional level for this girls is serious. No one likes to be rejected, specifically no because of your color 😢
It is bad , but those kids have no idea if it was colored based , their parents didn't have to make them feel worse about the situation and tell them its about their skin color .
@@aishaf.6153 the girl'ss parents should absolutely tell them the truth. It's unfortunate but Black children have to be taught these things for the preservation of self.
@@aishaf.6153 🤣🤣 good night with that comment. Feel free NOT to teach your kids that
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good god the delusion.
@@anastaziarahnae5749 they have to be taught at an early age to blame all of life's injustices on the color of their skin...give me a break
Why did the person dressed in the costume wave his/her finger at someone, right before saying no to the two little girls? Hmmm? The person in the costume is at fault- not the character Rosita. She’s a good character on Sesame Street, please don’t get rid of her! Sesame Street isn’t to blame.
Yes the employee is at fault. Sesame street has raised my children and there 40 . That stupid employee 🤬
I believe they ask for a picture and it's more videos, go watch them.
Fake racism brought to you by confirmation bias. Not that this character wasn't an ass but there is really no good reason to believe this is because of their race.
Let's just air only the videos of black children being mistreated and not any with white children. Because thats sound journalism that won't aggravate racial divides
To all the simple minded mfs in the comments:
1. The character clearly saw the children, saw there hands out, and ignored them.
2. Rosita specifically did this 3 times in this same parade. The one in the video wasn’t even the most apparent one.
3. Other characters in the park were doing the same thing
4. No white families have uploaded videos of their white kids being ignored, and I doubt any of them have any videos of it.
5. Stop accusing racism just because it happens all the time in other parks, just because it happens a lot doesn’t mean it’s ok.
6. You gotta realize that they’re little kids, their hearts are fragile and when they get ignored meanwhile everyone else doesn’t, they’re gonna feel awful.
7. Sesame Street themselves are not responsible, you cannot change someone’s views on something just because you put them through the training to do so. This isn’t Sesame Street’s fault and more so the costume character’s fault themselves.
8. Sure it’s hard to see out those costumes but when you have 3 cases of ignoring black children in the same show, it can’t just be a coincidence.
So parents worried about they kids getting hugged? But no outrage when that grown man Billy Porter was on Sesame Street in a Dress. Ok Got it! Smh!
I love how companies throw their employees under the bus when blatant racism is publicized. When everyone knows these companies culture promotes racism at all levels within the organization. I'm sure in this case, the characters are told to have limited to no interaction with black guests at the park.
They just said the employee didn't see the kids and is "devastated", how exactly is that "Throwing them under the bus"?
You are correct. Hotels give Black guests the worse rooms. I've had that experience on many occasions. I ask for a different room and usually will get an upgrade.
Right I'm sure seasame street tells their employees to limit their interactions with blk guests. Do you see how ridiculous you sound? Your the type of person that makes it hard for people who suffer from real ray cism to be taken seriously. You "everything is ray cist" people are insufferable, and don't help out anyone in the process.
What? 🤦🏻♀️ I sure hope you’re joking because that’s crazy.
@@msnandimarie7023 my husband and I go out to eat at nice restaurants and we always seem to end up by the kitchen. We are white. Things happen. It’s not all racism.
When my son was in high school, he was the finalist for a college scholarship he applied for at a local organization, but when the organization realized that my son is white, the follow-up call never came. When we contacted the organization to find out the status on the scholarship he was told he had won, we were told that the scholarship was given to a black child instead. Discrimination goes both ways.
nah.. he was just better than your son
@@hopecolabody your an npc
Sad....same shit happened to me as a kid smh!! He clearly saw them if he told them no. He needs to be fired flat out!!!!
No. He is an LGBTQ so he's protected.
You sound homophobic / transphobic. 😂
How do we know it's not a black person in the costume 😂🤣
Poor Babies, this is disgusting behaviour, nasty people he/she knew they were there as you can see the eye contact..
@ashley1994 well hush my mouth for commenting, there’s is know need to be rude,
Why am I the rude one, just because I called them babies, they are in the eyes of their mum. It’s called a term of endearment. You’d better look for a lady called Kathrine Ellis and comment about her point of view if you don’t like people using the word babies, by the way I haven’t seen your view about racism or do you tell people they are rude to called young children Babies.
So the family is suing Sesame Street for $25 MILLION dollars. I'm sure millions of kids from all nationalities get passed over every year because the character is walking a certain pace waving and interacting with everyone.
The first thing you wanna do is scream racism and wanna sue the company. Wow... If everyone sued for being snubbed this world would be a messed up place. You think your special because your black? We're all humans and things aren't perfect in your perfect world. I hope when the character takes off the mask they are a black boy or girl... Would you still feel the same if it is? This is an opportunity for the parents to make a bunch of money and that's all this is. Hope this is thrown out of court. Being snubbed by the color of one's skin is hearsay... not admissible in court.
This is absolutely DISGUSTING!! FIRE ALL OF THE EMPLOYEES DISPLAYING SUCH A DEPLORABLE ATTITUDE!! If we want to live in a better world,we should start by practicing being good to EVERYONE regardless of race or creed etc..AND EVERYTHING that is part of our planet!! What saddens me is that that incident will leave a mark in those little girls hearts. How do we expect people to move forward if we continue to perpetuate such kind of behavior???
PUHHHHHLEEEEEZE ... this happens to kids all the time. These characters are innundated. He/She was waving at the girls. They didn't ignore them. This ridiculous entitlement needs to stop already. GTFOH
Like the entitlement that you have Right now.?
Your opinion is more than likely from the lens of a privileged white woman. Thus, you can not relate to the experiences of covert racism that occurs more often than realized. It simply is not your reality. These type of incidents are simply a "minor mishap or innocent oversight" to you. Your viewpoint lacks empathy because you cannot relate to a minority when you don't share our everyday experiences. Minorities are very much in tune with our surroundings and hyperviligent of how we are treated differently from our white counterparts. Do not minimize the experiences of minorities because you have yet to walk in our shoes. We don't want your sympathy when we share our experiences. We just want fairness, respect, and equality.
@@angienh122 Bingo!!!!
Waving by shaking her head no?? Loool
@@OROgoldenpair1 if you notice, in the full video, the person in character was shaking their head no in response to the conversation with the other adult. Pay attention
Unacceptable... Just seeing the looks at those two girls really breaks my heart😢😢... Imagine if this is your children's. ❤️❤️
These girls need to learn that life isn't always fair. I remember being at parades as a child and clowns/elves/other costume characters were walking around high fiving people. Not everyone got high fived. Even me. It was a little disappointing, but my mum said: There's always next year.
Seeing the look on these girls faces breaks your heart? What about the children's faces in Ukraine? Some of those children may never see their parents again. Some of them will defiantly not see their parents because they were killed.
There are bigger issues in the world right now and two girls not getting attention is not one of them. It's the way life is. Sometimes you will be picked. Other times you won't.
Leftards just can't stop seeing racism everywhere they look without even questioning their mere assumptions. This is getting dumber and dumber every time. You keep falling for the same hook over and over for years. You're simply gullible people who need to be removed from society and shouldn't vote.
My children are white

@@aprilfisher4947 No one but the guy in costume is guilty of racism.
@@aprilfisher4947 Why not? It looked racist as hell to me.
At the mentioned of it, I thought not everything is racist, but seeing the video, the hand gesture and seeing other videos is so heartbreaking...the character just high five some other little kids, so don't look any more stupid by saying that they couldn't see the little kids...
It's funny you need video proof to believe in racism. That says a lot about what kind of human being you are. Gross.
High fives a white kid and their ADULT parent before telling the black girls no.
@Trinity M Guess what, in a fast paced parade in a bot suit with limited visibility this is just something that happens on a regular basis to everyone. The No was already being waved at someone else. This is a normal, not racial thing. They just cherry picked to make it look racist.
This is why people don’t believe you, the imaginary victim hood and crying wolf you are doing right now. You established yourself as uncredible while talking about not being believed. That’s why people don’t take you at face value.
@Trinity M no point in trying to explain. I honestly really try to stay away from news involving black people because the comments are so disturbing and disgusting. It hurts my feelings. People are going to think less of us and our opinions no matter what. It’s very unfortunate how our black community gets treated all because the color of our skin. I’ll never understand it.
@Trinity M cause funny enough people can lie

What's going to more damage to these little girls is when Rosita gets a sex change op in a couple years and they have to start calling her Ronald now.
My thought to ! we are not alone. This was on my TV news in new Zealand. Pure Propaganda
@@maxpain9388 Sorry, I changed my post after you posted. Just so everyone reading this understands you are agreeing to something else I posted that is no longer visible.
I am so happy that this family exposed this incident. It is exactly what it shows. They acknowledge family before them and after them. What? What? Do these companies know what it takes for some families to visit these places that the kids see on tv? Pressure!
Ph shut up sheila
It’s a short clip so it’s not easy to see. Ok so the girls didn’t get an handshake. Take them down farther so they can see the character. It very well could absolutely have been an oversight. The person in the costume feels terrible. I wonder why parents are making such big deals when their kids don’t get what they want.
Where does it show the mascot acknowledging the family after them? Dumbass.
Also, you overlooked the fact the mascot was waving off white people less than a second before the 2 kids. It was probably all one gesture to say "sorry I gotta move on".
Too many people looking for racism. Pathetic.
@Recliner -Rider thats not racism you dope, a woman off screen was gesturing rosita to stop for a quick picture and rosita said no because obviously they were in the middle of a parade. You want to be a victim which is why your a Democrat. Its always racism wah wah wah, ya sorry sack of shit
Hey bud this was blatantly edited to hide the context that the family ahead of them tried to get a picture with the person holding their baby with the costume and its against regulations for blatantly obvious reasons (maybe its not blatant for people to understand that because they blatantly believe obvious doctored footage and its not the first time either)
get over it. my daughter has been snub as well but were not suing ..buy them a ice cream.
why are the kids messed up from that?
Well, it is Bucks county where parents at school board meetings loudly express their anti-inclusion ideology.
He was just worried they were gonna steal something if they got too close
if you watch the whole video, you can see that the actor in the costume first goes to high five the adult and then shakes their finger at them, then the girls. I read that the actors are not allowed to touch the people. Whom ever was in the costume made a mistake, but that is'nt going to help those kids feelings. however, making telling them it was because they're black is only going to make it worse for them.
Yep and that’s on their mom. She’s the one bringing race into this. There very well could have been a whole other situation going on and because of that the girls were passed by. Totally innocent.
and for all we know the performer is black too. What we do know is that they are wearing a freaking fur costume and walking on asphalt in the sun during the hottest summer on record.
There’s footage of more of those muppets doing the same things to the other black kids though. You have to see it in full. This is edited for time.
People are smoking crack on the streets and this makes national news! Smh.
why arent you commenting on those crack videos instead?
You just showing that clip. he did that to all the black kids, and another character knocked a black little girl down she's was about 3 or4 was pure racism
I saw that clip. He walked to the little girl with his arms outstreched to give hugs, and ran into her knocking her down. Demonstrates to me just how hard it is to see in those costumes.
I'm scared that these kids will grow into people who won't take 'no' for the answer. Also, I heard someone in UA-cam telling 'you're making the situation that nobody wants to be with you'. I fear more and more people will avoid Blacks because they don't want to be labeled as 'racist.' Even it's a heartbreaking for a kids, suing the park is going overboard.
LOL yet there are still songs that degrade black women, nary a peep
What has the world come to where every little thing is called racist….. i highly doubt the character was like oh no black kids… and the fact they got a Attroney. The parents are literally the definition of Karens that pull the race card for anything
Poor girls, they are devastated with Rositas character, she could have at least given them a high five and kept walking ! The park should simply put up a notice stating that characters cannot carry children for pictures , or ban character pictures during the parade parade like Disney, they can simply do a character meet up!
i fell so bad for the kids🥺
WHY????
snowflake
@@Brando-wc8fz Because there are people like you, that's why.
The first excuse was that the character did not see them and the second excuse was that the character was waving no to another family that wanted to take photos.
