Beijing Airline's In-Flight Guide Blames Chicago Violence on Bla
By Oscar Holland
Beijing's Capital Airlines is warning passengers not to visit south Chicago unaccompanied, directly attributing violence in the area to its black population.
The in-flight tourism advice, found by That’s Beijing on a domestic flight, suggests that public security is “tense and worse” in the city’s south, “mainly because the blacks are densely living [there].”
The discovery comes just two days after Air China withdrew a controversial passenger magazine that recommended “precautions” in parts of London “mainly populated by Indians, Pakistanis and black people.”
Capital Airlines’ in-flight entertainment system offers similar advice for the Illinois city, with its destination guide telling tourists: “do not travel to south part of Chicago alone [sic].”
The comments appear beneath a section marked “security situation,” which also lists recent shooting incidents alongside crime statistics.
