- Joe Miller: Have you ever felt discriminated against at Wyatt Wheeler?
- Anthea Burton: Well, yes.
- Joe Miller: In what way?
- Anthea Burton: Well, Mr. Wheeler's secretary, Lydia, said that Mr. Wheeler had a problem with my earrings.
- Joe Miller: Really?
- Anthea Burton: Apparently Mr. Wheeler felt that they were too..."Ethnic" is the word she used. And she told me that he said that he would like it if I wore something a little less garish, a little smaller, and more "American."
- Joe Miller: What'd you say?
- Anthea Burton: I said my earrings are American. They're African-American.
