A Black woman is questioning whether race was a factor in a Transportation Security Agent’s decision to force her to remove her shirt at a security checkpoint at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport last month.
“Is it because I’m a Black woman?” Aundrea DeMille questioned when speaking to ABC 4 this week.
The incident happened on Feb. 28 when DeMille approached a Delta Air Lines security checkpoint inside the airport. She was returning from hiking in Sedona, Arizona, and was wearing a half-zip top. DeMille says the TSA officer made her remove the shirt, which was the only thing covering her sports bra. DeMille walked through the scanner in only her bra.
