DoorDash driver is fired after camera captures horrific slur against black customer

The moment a now-former DoorDash employee used the N-word as he delivered an order to a black woman's porch was captured on video. 

The video, which was uploaded late last week by TikTok user Christina Derrica, has been viewed upwards of 3.2  million times.

An unidentified man approaches the door of a house in Nashville, and says loudly enough that the audio was clearly captured by the Ring camera: 'Here's your food n*****.'

The delivery driver appears to look inside the bag before backing away and taking a picture of the delivery to confirm it had been deposited.

The man, again, brazenly drops the racial slur, saying, 'Chow down n*****,' as he walks away.

'Did he not see my Ring camera?' wrote Derrica in the caption of the video she shared.

She also called out the company in her post, adding, 'Fire him IMMEDIATELY, HELLO @DoorDash.'

In a subsequent letter the company Derrica also posted to her TikTok, DoorDash confirmed the driver had been fired and apologized for the incident.

'Please know that the type of behavior you described has no place on the DoorDash platform, or anywhere else, and is a violation of our safety policies.

'I want to assure you that we have investigated this incident and taken appropriate action by removing this dasher from the platform.'

The driver has not been identified or located. It remains unclear what triggered his reaction, or if he was simply expressing racist sentiments he harbors.

In response to an inquiry from the Atlanta Black Star, which reported on the incident, the company confirmed the employee had been fired, and added: 'There’s no place for hate on the platform.'

'We’re horrified and appalled by this incident,' a spokesperson said via email. 'Make no mistake - we have zero tolerance for racism. This incident violates both our policies and what we believe in. 

'We have deactivated this Dasher account and reached out to the customer.'

Viewers across social media were shocked and disheartened by the content of the video.

'I did not expect that. The gasp that just came out of me,' wrote one TikTok viewer.

'And this is why I will not ever get door dash. I'm sorry but I just don't trust random people bringing me food in their car. Nope,' wrote another. 

Some said they hope the customer had thrown the entire order away because, 'He looks like the type to spit in someone's food.'

Others said they would have attempted to confront the man to see if he had the audacity to use the slur during a face-to-face interaction.
