    Americans are insane. I’m a Pole living in Germany and i love doing gorilla chest knocks and monkey noises when I’m winning something, think shooting a 3 points basket one hand.

    I’d never think it could offend someone.

      Are you doing at a black person? No? Then your point is? Because that’s the point here, she did it at a black person, and tried to deny it.

      My point is, you don’t do that at a black person and it not be racist, and if you do it towards a black person with no ill intentions, then you’re still guilty of ignorance, because it will be, at best, misinterpreted.
