Yes , Management Rude and Ignorant !

I am a mixed racial professional from Europe who saw and witnessed the ugly side of discrimination in the USA through this apartment management. Here is my story , I moved to Springfield 3 years ago. I was looking for a quite apartment with a close proximity to my work, and I thought West Woods of Monroe garden was one. When I try to get to that area 3 years ago, I was told there was not any. Every year before I renew my current lease I checked on the availability of the apartment with no luck.4 days ago , when I called Monroe Garden, there was a guy on the phone instead of the usual unfriendly women manger for the first time , and he confidently said there was one. I finally packed my stuff to move in to West Woods. However, surprisingly, whet I arrived at the office to finish the paper work, the manger told me there was no apartment for me. It smelled very fishy to me. Well, I went back and I had made my white American friend to go and ask for an apartment just in just 2 hrs after my denial. Well, well there was one for him. He called me from the office and I entered and confronted the manger there. She then told me, with out a shame, that I do not have the qualification to live in West Woods. But she offered me to move in the stinky Monroe Garden. How ignorant! I am a supervisor of my friend with excellent credit and back ground , I am cleaner than my friend , I am more responsible than my friend ,. But I was not qualified to move to West Wood. Just because of my brown skin color, sure I was not qualified to leave there. And then more, one of the maintence personal said I will put it verbatim Is Monroe garden good enough for you!' I am glad they did not allow me, but I and my other friend who is the current resident at that apartment sure will do our best to see justice served.
