Mom Accuses Sesame Place of Racist Snubbing of Black Girls
Вставка

- Sesame Place is facing backlash after a video shows a character appearing to snub two Black children who reached out for a hug. Park officials claim it was an innocent misunderstanding. They say the motion that Rosita can be seen making is her turning down another mother, who wanted her infant picked up, which is not permitted. Sesame Place says “the costumes sometimes make it hard to see at lower levels.” The theme park also announced they are giving extra training to their performers.
Everything has to be racism these days. It just couldn’t possibly be a misunderstanding. And how can you possibly tell a persons race in those costumes. 🤦🏽♀️
America in a nutshell.
So pushing a toddler to the floor is okay with you when it’s a person of color we know who’s the racist here
Thats what im saying right now the media has it all wrong
EXACTLY
America sucks
Me: “Can you tell me how to get to Sesame Street?”
Rosita: “No”
Lol
More like can you NOT tell me how to get to sesame street?
Pull your pants down and ask big bird 😆.
Rosita prolly gonna to be in East NY or Brownsville. 💀
That's a good one😂🤣👍🏻👍🏻
It’s so crazy how we will take a snippet of a video and automatically assume we know what happened despite not knowing the context or being there ourselves.
@kailie whatttt
@kailie you mean the goofy one from like a couple of years ago
Literally nobody mentioned their race, but there's another video where you can see them clearly looking at the black kids asking for a hug and then going to a non black kid right after
@@sunky5722 nope, this happened recently
Well Inside Edition chose to leave other snippets out where the same happens. She ignores another black kid and hugs the other kids.
Imagine doing your job and suddenly finds out you're being acused of racism.
I don’t know why most of the people in this comment section is making it seem like it was a one time thing.

Seems like the character was already saying No to someone else that we can’t see.
It doesn't matter, the puppet is racist! If you don't agree, it's because you're racist to! RACISTS EVERYWHERE!
I was thinking that too till I saw another video of this same sesame character hugging the white kids and rejecting the black kids.
@@Kanyaoo proof?
They were. There was a bunch of people asking the character to hold their children for a photo and the character was relaying that they wont take photos with the children. It was not directed at the girls
Thats what i said
I used to work at Chuck E. Cheese and it is entirely possible this was a misunderstanding. However at the end of the day I just feel bad for those little girls :(
i agree
yeah they just wanted to meet one their fav characters, not their fault or the performer if it was a misunderstanding.
She shook her head no. You can’t see?
I feel bad their mom is teaching them about race baiting from such a young age.
Do you directly WAVE at people you don't see? Stop it Koo Koo Karen.
This feels like a villain backstory, " my hero didn't say hi to me so now I hate him"
They got in the middle of a live parade, for a hug, if he would of hugged them their would of been countless more kids wanting a hug and the parade would of became a stationary event.
@@thatguy5801 then why'd he supposedly hug the other kids next to them.
@@nou780 "supposedly" she could be lying and overexaggerating. This is twitter clout and hysteria we're talking about here. People will say anything for a like or a comment or a reaction.
@@thatguy5801 according to other comments there was a video showing them hugging other kids sooo
@@nou780 Link it, some people say anything for a upvote or a like...
It wasn't Racist At All! Here's What Happened:
1. The Person in the Costume was telling the other Woman No
2. It's really Hard to see in those Costumes
3. It's a Parade, the person is suppose to keep on Moving on or Else they would get hit by a Float
4. If Rosita has a Meet and Greet, then they could just go Meet her Later
Then why high five the person before them & hug the person after them?
Bro he high-five the little white kid tho
BRO LOOK AT THE VIDEO! SHE IS CLEARLY SAYING NO TO THE OTHER PEOPLE, NOT THE 2 GIRLS!
NOPE SHE WAS TELLING THE OTHER WOMAN IN THE VIDEO NO, FYI THIS WAS NOT A MEET AND GREET PEOPLE!
@@lovelydavis2555 LOL WHAT LITTLE WHITE KID?!
Imagine how embarrassing it would be for her if the person under the mask was black 😬.
It isn’t tho because news reporter said the person behind the costume is devastated over this incident. If the person was black they would’ve said the persons black.
If it was they would’ve shown her. So, obviously not.
@@jumpman6917 no? That's not how it works? Why should they state their race? Do you imagine how bad it would be? "The black was devastated over the incident" don't you see how bad it sounds?
@@jumpman6917 if they stated their race they prob wouldnt make as much money
@@jumpman6917 the news doesnt care about relevant information they just care about the cash bro
As a mom myself you can’t take this stuff personally. Characters do this all the time when they have to go on lunch, break, clock out etc. Plus those suits I’m sure get really hot so when it’s time for them to go it’s time to go. They can’t stay and say hi to everyone. 🤷🏻♀️
they has time to say hi to the white ones tho
@@rackszz5849 that's what these people do. Make excuses for their hateful people. U see how they treat their kids. Look at their priest,teachers, counselors. It's always some weird excuse. Some will blame heat or meds for their hate
@@rackszz5849 you have a good point
@@rackszz5849 Maybe stop crying and look at everything logically instead of being emotional
@@RUTHLESSambition5 exactly
Speaking from experience, it is really hard to see in those costumes. Though I have no idea what went on with this guy. I do feel bad for those poor kids.
That is true but the person in the mascot clearly saw the kid if he waved no towards them
Literally nobody mentioned their race, but there's another video where you can see them clearly looking at the black kids asking for a hug and then going to a non black kid right after
Sesame street is a place for kids
But with those little eye holes the character was able to see the kids that got a high five yet somehow the character wasn't able to see the colored kids that was clearly in the characters view.
I use to be chuck E cheese and my goal was to always pay attention to a lower height because my main goal was to make the kids have a good time and acknowledge them. Its honestly not hard at all to stop for half a sec and scan all view areas, greet, and continue. The person clearly saw them. Watch again.
I've had to wear a costume like this and let me tell you, it's a nightmare. You can't see a thing in it. Especially not small objects or children that can't seen due to the blind spots of the mask.
then why do he say no if he couldnt see them
@@estherdaqueen5636 the video says that some woman was asking if she could hold her baby, you can see the character was saying no while not looking at the girls.
@@EgoisticPerson So how can you explain the other videos that have surfaced in which they ignore black children?
@@itsyagreenowlduogostudyori8553 as a non American we laugh at you guys for taking everything as a race matter. I've seen those costume characters ignore white and Asian children also. But we never complain that cause we understand that they can't give attention to every child. But when it comes to black people , You guys always want that special treatment and care from everyone no matter what but when you don't, you guys always make that as huge race issue and create an outrage on social media to get some attention. You guys assume that the entire Sesame Place is racist just because one costume character avoid some African American children unintentionally. lmao. aMeRiCa.
@@itsyagreenowlduogostudyori8553could be them ignoring them, but also could be what this fella just said. Who knows. The kids most likely wont even remember it
As a black person I'm so tired of other black people yelling racism for every thing. It makes us a laughingstock and drowns out instances of actual racism
It’s usually so they can get attention/and or fake compensation.
Except there were multiple cases of this happening, that it just cant be a coincidence. As a black person I'm so tired of other black people like you making excuses for obvious racism
You're not Black...
@@MHPAM Look, another clown.
You’re Definitely not black, you too much lack understanding
That person was probably just suffocating inside that costume trying to pay bills 😒
@Blia Yang How do u know that is the reason from a 3 second video? They already explained why he passed them by in the desscription.
But selfish people don’t understand that.

@@simpsimps553 i see your point. I apologize if i was harsh
Rosita shook her finger and waved off others before passing over the girls. One cannot form an opinion of racism based on this video. This isn't a meet'n'greet event, it's a parade, with a schedule to stay on, and rules for the characters to follow. It's dangerous to let your child run out into parade!
She touched the white people hand. She should be fired. It was racism. You can clearly see She waved them like no.
That all depends on who was inside the rosita costume was their skin color orange like trump 🤔

You can’t just accuse someone of being racist. It’s hard to see in a costume which is like that
Give her a break she thought she was looking through the eyes of the costume
I saw a character pushing a black kid down with their legs
Society
oh but how was it so easy for them to see the white kids?
You can. What do you mean?? The person in the costume literally looked at them and brushed the kids away.. you even have other black parents saying they’ve experienced the same thing haha. I think at this point it’s disingenuous to say it wasn’t racist.
In an article I read by CNN it stated that the person playing as Rosita confirmed they were saying no to the person asking to hold their child for a picture (which is against guidelines.) This performer apparently didn’t intentionally ignore the girls and is devastated at the misunderstanding.” PERHAPS the person in the Rosita costume was struggling to see the small children below with the mask and just continued on with the gesture because the person with the small child was continually asking. But, I could be wrong. I wasn’t there nor do we know everything about this moment.
Edit: I am not looking to argue with anyone. I’m not saying the person in the Rosita costume purposely ignored the girls or that she did. I’m just stating something upon observation and from reading articles. I was NOT there nor do I know what was going on prior or what happened after the mom stopped recording. She claims Rosita hugged a white little girl after, but that’s not in the recording. So, I will decide to stay neutral in this situation.
Edit 2: I watched another video and I saw someone talk about how the girls looked like they were near the yellow line or passed the line that is there to let people know not to cross. The person said perhaps Rosita signaled no because they didn’t want to encourage crossing the line by making others think you’ll get more attention if you disobey the policy.
Another theory I’ve seen is that the lady was asking Rosita to pick up her child but Rosita said no (like I said before against policy guidelines.) The smaller of the two girls looked like she was trying to hug Rosita or was being asked to be picked up which is also against policy so Rosita said no to the two parties who had children wanting to be picked up. Again, these COULD be wrong.
Yes you're wrong!
He sees white kids BELOW and asks for high fives, then getting close to black kids can't see below?? Interesting!
This is lies no such article
You're a liar and how hard was it to give the little girls a high five? When she gave the white people in the video high fives
He looked down. Even if he cant see the children, thats bad in itself cuz u could walk right into a kid without knowing. How dumb is that?
Where can I find this article?
Feel bad for the kids, but it looks like she genuinely didn't see them and was responding to someone else.
your rigth cause its so hot wearing that and cant see will but if you train for it it will take alot of years before you get good of it years of pain ofc
She directly looks down at them and says no. If it was just this one video I can understand but there’s more videos of the same character doing it
that is exactly what happen she was telling a women no who wanted her to hold her small child for a pic. and Iam sure she didnt blow them off she was trying to keep it moving
@@TyTy-cf9mm exactly.
You Didn't see then? Did you see the hand and the finger gesture that he/she showed to the kids. The other black mother thought she did not see her son but the second video shows she's doing that deliberately just saying.
They honestly just need to make a no touching rule in general. Because those kids seem way too close to the floats and it’s making me nervous. The characters should just wave to the children from a safe distance instead lol.
Other people: They need to be trained better
You: Can we just keep the kids safe?
What do you mean no touching he didn't even wave at the kids he shook his finger no.
so you tell me what's the difference did he touch or did he just wave his finger no?
@@MyLifeStayNFaithMode I think you misunderstood my comment a little bit?

Why Rosita not pass by a little white girl?
@@babykevinxoxo Because they were focused on the mom, probably never saw the two girls, but happened to notice the other one. You can't say exactly what happened, but you have to be open to the possibility that it might have been a mistake.

@@babykevinxoxo there is no white girl in the video, where did u see a white girl? I dont see her
Watch all of the videos
This is an example of why you shouldn’t always believe what you think is happening until you make the effort in putting the facts all together.
the fact is, this happened multiple times with black children by this character and others. I've seen the videos.
Please just stop. Y’all need help!!!… you’re people can do better!!!!!
I’ve seen it too. I don’t understand why it’s so unbelievable that a racist would be in that suit. They obviously still exist 🙄
Really! So don’t believe my lying eyes? He gave that dismissive wave twice, the first time he was not looking at the little girls in the video, he was giving the first dismissive sign with his finger and looking in the other direction. The second time he did, he made a waving gesture with his full hand , but this time he waved it at those little girls😡 I personally wouldn’t have cared, but that would’ve also been the last time my babies saw one of those characters, unless they were on a billboard or a commercial. Just don’t support that show anymore!
@@EverythingAsmr_ who is yall? And I think you need help
Y'all do realize there's a human being in that costume right? That person is not looking through the eyes of the character. It's hot and hard to see so it could have been a simple misunderstanding

When I was a kid, my feet literally was stepped by a mascot, and they didn't even noticed it. I knew there's too much happening for them, that's why they're always keep going.
Sorry this made me laugh 😂 hope your okay tho
@@gghhhhhhhhb8161 its my fault though I tried to grab their legs. But I didn't cried, I know it hurts but I kinda felt honored being stepped that time (or probably I didn't wanna make a scene).

You were probably a lil badass. The children were following the rules same as everyone else.
seriously they can’t even hardly see in those costumes they’re working hard to even let children even be able to experience this… super stupid that this is getting the card treatment.
But "Rosita" saw well enough to acknowledge the little White kids.
And it wasn't rhe first time, no excuse.
They can see out of those costumes, people who were in costumes like that said themselves that they can see small children. Next!
Lol ok
What??? Lol saying anything
Does everything have to be racism? Like for real, let the mascot do its job. Not all kids can get hugs, it holds up the parade line.
Theyre asking for an high five. Not a hug
not all of em wanted hugs, they wanted a high five. there’s multiple videos where he ignored the black kids.

@@boomratchaa4218 have you ever been to a parade like this? local holiday parade? disney? they stop for 2 seconds, high five a kid or 2, walk another 30 feet & do it all over again - while simply waving at the rest that got skipped in between the 30ft.. unfortunately excited kids get skipped literally all the time. it’s not personal. maybe they should only wave & not high five any of them.. so it’s fair across the board.
Kids mom wants attention.. this isn't about her kids at all. She saw an opportunity to flip a misunderstanding to her advantage & get on TV. The kids forgot in 5 minutes, Mom is making sure they remember this through her misrepresentation. I feel bad for Rosita.

At first they accuse trump
The muppet says “NO” to someone else before saying no tot he additional two children … sometimes they gotta keep moving this is ridiculous
She could've gave them a high five tho.
Instead of waving No abruptly and brushing them off, a simple high five would've been much better
Did you see how sarcastic she started to look when she passes by the one little black boy? Floating her arms like she's joking about mosying on by. I'm becoming more and more convinced that her attitude is intentional.
It's only overreacting when you're never the target. When you're never the target, racism is only imagined.

Rosita seems to say no to someone else.
This doesnt seem racist at all. Besides, I can assume it's not easy to wear that costume, obviously the gesture of no was intended to someone else and carried on while walking next to these two cute girls, but we can't read the body language of the actor because of the costume. Seems like a misunderstanding and an overreaction of the mom. If the actor says it was not racist, why don't we just accept what the actor says?

@@sunshineasylum1548 I thought they were some that were the same mascot, but not actor
Yeah she gestured no to other black kids but high-fived the white kids and adult next to them, there is no misunderstanding in ignoring someone😂 and if the actor said it was out of racism sesame and the actor would have a whole lot of unwanted attention so of course one will say its not racism 😂💯
The eye slots weren't even looking at the girls when he/she was saying no. The actor was looking up and over their shoulder towards an adult seen off screen. The actor probably didn't even realize the girls were there.

This is NOT how you get equality. This is how you start a race war.
There is no such thing as an eye slot in these costumes. The actor was looking at the children directly through the mouth opening. It’s clear they were seen though the costume, just not the intentions of why they were waved no against.
@@derpydogz0259 yes, the the mouth of the costume is the slot for the actor's eyes. Hence the name eye slot(s)

Can’t tell a persons race in those costumes, so calling them racist just cause they missed seeing your child is stupid. Yeah I seen the character make a no sign, but not directed towards the kids, it was clearly towards an adult. You can’t see very well in those costumes so missing a kid trying to get your attention, it’s an easy thing to have happen. I’ve seen videos of other black kids getting missed out, but how many white, Asian, Mexican, etc other kids also got missed out on cause the performer couldn’t see them? My kid isn’t black, she’s been passed over for a Native American family. I’m not calling racism, the performers can’t always see the kids. Mine was small, there’s were bigger and easier to notice. Stop being so offended by life.

This company is SERIOUSLY on the down-rise. The fact that they displayed a completely VALID reason as to why the kids were seemingly snubbed, they STILL insist that "oh now this could really have something to do with race" like UGHHH. they were giving the most valid excuses, yet try to make it out as something it wasn't. OH and who's to say that the person in the suit was black? Would it have been racist then? or a misunderstanding? All I can do is sympathize with the person in that suit. Likely making minimum wage, living paycheck to paycheck, and could possibly be fired because of an obvious misunderstanding.
Several videos have now surfaced of the characters intentionally doing this to only black children…
The character is clearly not doing the gesture at the kids. If she wasn't directly looking down, there was no way she could've seen those two little black girls in front of her. The white girl likely was farther in front and so she was visible. I'm a furry with a mascot costume collection and fursuit of my personal character and I can tell you that when wearing the head of pretty much all mascot costumes you cannot see directly down in front of you unless you're explicitly looking down. Given how close those girls were, the performer likely couldn't see the motions for hugs.
Dude your opinion doesnt matter...youre a furry.
I think it was an honest mistake. & I’m not just saying that because I’m from Pittsburgh lol & I like the profile pic
Lost me at the furry part 😬
Furry huh? 🙄
Yeah you could have left out the sexual preference deets
The person literally waved at the girls. And they can’t hug and high five every single child.
And conveniently the other part wasn’t caught on camera.
Ummm when?
@@narwhaIe yes that’s usually how it goes. they stop for a split seconds, give a high five to a kid or 2 & then walk 20 feet & do it all over again. go look up any parade from their past or even disney.. kids get skipped all the time. it’s not personal. the parade has to keep moving.

It could have simply been a misunderstanding as the rest of the video is clearly not shown, so it's really hard to judge anything on 9 seconds. It is also really hard to see anything in those character costumes.
I agree, but the only problem is, there's multiple videos of the mascot acting the same way towards those black kids.

You're right! I'm surprised someone didn't send the hooligans to destroy Sesame Place. 😢
Y’all understand that there’s MULTIPLE videos of these characters acting like this to these children. MULTIPLE videos of the character ignoring the kids or even one character rushing up on one little girl and knocking her down. Idk, maybe it’s hard to see in the masks, but the whole situation seems sketchy. Why wasn’t there a single video of the character doing this to white children? I’m sure almost everyone had a phone out recording, why is it they only caught it happening to these children?
That's exactly what I've been saying. I swear people in these comments act so naive lol one incident? Ok maybe a misunderstanding but multiple instances with the same character?? Yeah I don't care how "devastated" the person under the character is, you're racist as $%^&

This is what happens when you push a victim hood mentality on people
Multiple videos of black children being snubbed. They were victims!
This is what's wrong people want to play the race card and not give the benefit of a doubt. Definitely a misunderstanding

This isn't racist. The proof is that she said no to another person not shown in the video. Was that person colored? Who knows. If you look at the right part of this video the character waved no at someone who is on the right side but not shown on the camera.
And you didn't see the very first seconds of the video before it walked up to the girls. Check what she did to the little girl with the afro wearing the dress.

When you first see this video it does fill you with anger but when you analyse it, it genuinely seems like a misunderstanding.
since y’all seem to not get it , the “no” to the mom happened before the character even got to the little girls after that. you can clearly see the character looks at them and walks away. yes not everybody can get hugs , but a high-five or a wave would’ve been better than to just walk away. this also isn’t the first time a parent has complained about it ; so where the other times just “misunderstandings” as well?
There's a bunch of other vids from different angles. Watch those then reassess your comment
Your trying to make an issue here when she was saying no to someone behind the camera
She shook her head no at the black girls AFTER the no that they explained. Its a pattern, but its ALSO a pattern for overprivileged ppl to write off the mistreatment of black girls. Pathetic to actually WANT kids to be hurt and excluded.
@@sheddinglightspreadingligh8864 you missed it she had two parents she said no to

You can't force Rosita to hug you. If you did, that would be considered sexual harrassment / assault. Get over yourselves people. If I don't want to hug anybody while you pay me minimum wage to be in a hot costume sweating my coconuts off, I ain't hugging your damn kids but instead making way ASAP to the nearest water fountain. There's nothing in the job description that says you MUST hug everyone you see.
Yes, but not a single wave or high five? Or anything but literally waving them off and ignoring them? I see your point though, if they don’t have to they don’t need to TECHNICALLY hug them. Still, very rude
@@gorillapantsuit1734 fr
first of all it happen to all the black kids and the puppe kept waving at the white kids
Even if not a hug they could of did a high five
I get that, but the video explicitly states that another kid was hugged immediately after. Definitely see where you’re coming from though.
Looking at it again maybe they’re telling the truth. The character was just reaffirming her rejection of the parent who asked the character to hold her kid
There were different videos
Um no don't come saying the character this and that, it proves what they do was wrong
The saddest part of all this is the mindset the mother is teaching those lil girls
