It happened at the Burton Walmart on Court Street in Flint, Michigan. Angela Peters visited the nail salon, but was turned away because she has cerebral palsy. Walmart cashier Ebony Harris saw the incident and decided to do something about it. So she skipped her break and helped Peters select her favorite polish. Then the two relaxed in the seating area of Subway (in Walmart) for a manicure.
Harris said, "she moved her hands a little bit and kept saying she was sorry, and I told her, 'don't say that, you're fine.'" Harris has no qualms with the nail salon, but she hopes her actions inspire otehrs to treat people with disabilities the same way they would like to treated themselves.
