I've always wondered?

I've always wondered why the Black people get Limo's to ride in when they are the family of the deceased loved one, but white people don't? I don't know if they do this everywhere but I have saw many funerals & it has always been this way. I'm not racist I am just wondering why the Black people get a limo but white people don't. Also who pays for it?

    It not because the family is trying to get noticed. It's because most Black people use Black owned funeral homes and they are more likely to offer limo's as part of the burial package then White owned funeral homes.

    What a question , It's not why if this is what the funeral home offers then what's the problem I have been to several funerals of my white friends and other races and the family was in a limo.

    LOL! I've seen many whites and other races in limos!! I think it is just about being together and holding one another if need be. I think you feel it is about being in the spotlight and being noticed....no, not at a funeral, it is about being together as a family and helping eath other cope. It is love....so would you also say then, that black families are closer and support each other more?
