On the way to work, Jones encounters what he sees as hate-filled, racism-defined encounters with white commuters, pedestrians, and security guards, with the hate only manifesting on the part of the whites. When he finally arrives at work, five minutes late, he and his co-workers worry about what repercussions they're going to face. Jones comments that it looks like white workers had sure brought their white to work with them that morning.
