(Photo: Courtesy of Attiyya Barrett) More Last week, a group of young African-American girls was kicked out of an aquarium gift shop by an employee, but, according to the group’s program director, Attiyya Barrett, “the racist lady did not win.” Several girls, most in their early teens, were trying to buy souvenirs of their trip to the Jersey Shore when they were tossed out by a shop worker. The girls were on a field trip to Jenkinson’s Aquarium with their summer program Princess to Queenz. They entered the shop on their way out of the aquarium but were told they were not welcome.
