The "'''Brownsville Incident'''" refers to ~~a video of~~ [[Joshua Block]] loudly and angrily ~~yelling~~ the [[Racism|n-word]] outside West Fourth Street–Washington Square station in Manhattan on March 22, 2024. The video had little context, other than it was taken down from TikTok, then posted on [[r/WorldOfTShirts]], becoming the most upvoted post on the subreddit of all time. Based on the video, it doesn't appear that Josh was actually yelling at anyone in particular, making the incident even more concerning.

On that day, Josh was on his phone arguing with a possible [[trolls|troll]], during which Josh mentioned beating the caller up and then waiting for the police to arrive. He then stimmed about going to [[Italy]]. Afterwards, Josh proceeded to argue with a man, who told Josh to shut up<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1bkpg1n/full_context_of_josh_saying_the_nword/</ref>, and according to Josh, "tried to assalt[sic] me."<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1bkfxzl/josh_on_why_he_said_the_n_word/</ref> At one point, according to Josh, the man [[compulsive Lying|allegedly]] proceeded to "pour [[alcoholism|beer]] in my fave[sic]".<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1bkfxzl/josh_on_why_he_said_the_n_word/</ref> Regardless of what happened next, Josh then went into a [[meltdowns|crashout]].

== The Incident ==

Josh then proceeded to yell the n-word and made threats while waving his body around, which were captured in at least two videos. Videos were taken down from TikTok, but got posted on [[r/WorldOfTShirts]] prior to the takedowns, becoming the most upvoted post on the subreddit of all time.

The first can be seen on https://old.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1bkmwhw/i_know_this_has_been_posted_already_but_why_i_ask/ , where a man snickers while Josh says the n-word.

The second more infamous video can be seen on https://old.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1bl0jb0/josh_n_word_in_nyc/ , where Josh calls someone the n-word and threatens to beat them up. A homeless man, possibly the same person Josh argued with earlier, tells him to shut up.

== Aftermath ==

Shortly after the incident, Josh then approached two people on the street and [[Finances|begged them for money]], which they refused to give, causing Josh to cuss them out. Josh then proceeded to scream about how he hated [[United States|America]].<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/WorldOfTShirts/comments/1bkpg1n/full_context_of_josh_saying_the_nword/</ref>
