A car dealership fired an employee who wrote a 'racist' Facebook post calling a first time buyer 'Bon Quisha'

----

An employee was fired from a North Carolina car dealership after referring to a Black woman as "Bon Quisha" instead of her name in a now-deleted Facebook post.

Trinity Bethune, a 21-year-old personal care assistant, bought her first car on her own from Lumberton Honda earlier this week, WTVD-TV reported. However, her happiness about the purchase was short-lived when she saw a post on the dealership's Facebook page on Thursday.

The post accompanied with a photo of Bethune read: "Congratulations to Bon Quisha on her 2016 Toyota Camry," according to screenshots of the post.

In response, Bethune commented on the post, saying she was "offended."

"If I'm not addressed by MY name, then please don't address me at all," Bethune said.

2. I agree... WTF???? Though I am at a loss why it is specifically racist. More insulting than overt

Kind of like that Water Buffalo incident from many years ago.

But seriously what The F was this guy thinking?

3. Oh it's definitely racist as fuck.

You’ve never seen racists on YouTube or Facebook make up pseudo African sounding names?

I just saw one today on the local news Facebook page.

4. Because the specific term "Bonquisha" has long been used to make fun of Black women's names.

6. I guess one gift of doing no social media except DU is I was confused about the meaning of the name.

Only after reading posts above did I understand the dudes offense. Could not figure it out.

The Irony is the ladies actual name is as white bread as I can think of short of Brittany. A name I happen to like!

9. I am glad I wasn't the only one.

I guess such stupidity hasn't made its way to the west coast of Florida.
