AdvertisementThat we are more comfortable marginalizing the sexaual violence against black girls is reprehensible. No wonder 60% of blk girls are sexually abused.Enablers and predators.
The restaurant replied by tweeting;
Kenyette, we always want guests to feel comfortable at their neighborhood Applebee’s. We connected with the local franchise who confirmed that they’ve been in contact with you.
