MANILA, Philippines – What happens to a white woman who finds herself in a barbershop in the heart of New York City, Harlem?

In the series “What Would You Do?” ABC News sets up scenarios designed to reveal people’s true reactions to tricky situations. In this episode, a black guy brings his white, blonde girlfriend to Denny Moe’s, a barbershop most often filled with black customers. One of the hair stylists calls her out, discriminating her for the color of her skin and explicitly making her feel unwelcome. What do the other customers do? Do they think the girlfriend has no right to be there? Or do they disagree with the hair stylist?

The video gives viewers a look at what intolerance and the fight against it looks like in an everyday setting
