Yes not returning or acknowledging the nod..speaks volumes (one of those Fox News type of brothas)

Sometimes I like to walk past a brotha in the hall, give a nod, a fist check and say "Four hundred years, four hundred years brotha”..lol

I’m at a loss for what to say to them because I’ve tried repeatedly to fix this to no avail.
