This story doesn't sound untruthful but there are some details missing. I will say that being blatantly, publicly ignorant in this day and time is hard to believe . Be sure to read the comments.
This Is What Racism Sounds Like in the Banking Industry
Jimmy Kennedy earned $13 million during his nine-year career as a player in the National Football League. He was the kind of person most banks would be happy to have as a client.
But when Kennedy tried to become a “private client” at JPMorgan Chase, an elite designation that would earn him travel discounts, exclusive event invitations and better deals on loans, he kept getting the runaround.
At first, he did not understand why. Then, last fall, he showed up at his local JPMorgan branch in Arizona, and an employee offered an explanation.
