We Were Racially Profiled At AMC Theatres!

AMC Movie Theatres face a lawsuit from a group of Black women who were told to leave even though they purchased tickets.

The day after Thanksgiving. Black Friday folks.

The movie theater chain fired three workers out the cannon after they racially profiled a group of 15 women watching the movie "Harriet."

Members of the group 504 Queens were shocked to find that three staff members separately approached them during a two-hour film and repeatedly made them verify their ticket purchases.

They said it felt "like the 1800s" as they were "humiliated" by employees paused the film demanding the group show proof they've purchased their tickets.

Sandra Gordon, 65, told the junk food media that shortly after they got snacks, they noticed that the seats they've purchased were occupied. So they approached the employees who ran that movie theater and asked if they had better seatings.

That's when staff asked for the tickets as proof.

Gordon claims that a female worker told her "I want to see your ticket. You're in the wrong seat."

When Gordon showed her valid purchase confirmation on her cell phone, the woman left and another woman emerged. The second woman went to her and said that she "had conflict with an employee" and asked for her to leave.

Fellow movie watchers were getting annoyed with the group and shouted for them to leave as if they've done something wrong. Then another worker paused the film and demanded that group to leave the venue.

After they complained to the junk food media, AMC refunded the movie tickets and properly fired those involved out the cannon

AMC said that they will work with the group to make sure the matter is resolved.
