The racist rant of of Amin Chaudry, the owner of Ben Hill Custom Cleaners on 2373 Fairburn Rd. in Atlanta, has caused outrage. Located in the predominantly Black Ben Hill neighborhood, the dry cleaning business is now under fire. Andy Foster was picking up his clothing and videotaped Chaundry’s racist tirade. The incident was witnessed by Foster’s 10-year-old son, who is heard on the tape saying, “I’ve heard stuff like this before.”
The video has gone viral and nationally syndicated radio talk show host Rashad Richey called for a boycott of the business. Richey announced the names of other Black dry cleaners in the area in a local economic push to support Black business. Chaundry has refused to answer his phone and declined media interviews.
