There was a protest yesterday afternoon (2/01/2010) here in Paris, TN at the McDonalds on Mineral Wells Avenue. I couldn't find any news stories about it in Google. A lady customer had started the protest after feeling an employee had said a racist remark to her at the counter. The protest lasted for about an hour and people held signs in the parking lot. There were a lot of people at my workplace who had stopped and talked to them. I'll try to ask Elizabeth S. what the signs said, as I can no longer remember the exact wording. I wonder if there will be any updates in the news.
