Chris Rock's Mother Accuses The Cracker Barrel of Discrimination

Comedians Chris and Tony Rock's mama
is pissed off at the Cracker Barrell resturant
in Murrells Inlet S.C.
Rose Rock says she and her daughter were made
to wait over 30 minutes for service while white
patrons all around her were served. She's so upset
she's gotten Al Sharpton to help file a class action
lawsuit against the resturant chain.
The Cracker Barrel is no stranger to these
sorts of allegations. In 2004 they settled a suit
that charged them with segregating customers
by race and providing preferential treatment
to white customers.
