I once assisted a black man that had fallen of his bike, Road bike, narrow tires, went into soft sand fell and hit his head and was bleeding from nose and ears.

While I was assisting him another black couple came down the road and pulled over to help.

I had my daughter, about 5-6 at the time with me and she got to witness racism first hand that day from that couple.

They were accusing me of hitting him instead of taking care of the patient, internal bleeding. He did not remember falling but you could see his tracks in the sand and there was no damage to the bike.

They finally backed off and I gave him a ride back to the church they all came from and they called paramedics.

This is a reason people will not get involved.

I also had a lot of questions to answer that day from my daughter.
