Excerpt:
Walker told CNN's Don Lemon the Trump supporter made him feel like was a slave.
"He really made me feel like I was almost like a slave who had to show paperwork to show my freedom," he said.
"I do believe that I was singled out, as a black man, in that restaurant. And were it not for the past temperature of the nation -- of this election -- you know I don't think he would be as emboldened to approach me in the manner that he did and just outright label me, you know, as a black man trying to steal food."
Walker said he'd never encountered such treatment before.
"I've had racism, but just to be as bold as he was -- he felt like he had the right to do this to me, and the manager participated in that," he said.
Is this the kind of thing we will see in our nation during America's first 'Alt Right' presidency?
