A US man was shocked to receive an anonymous letter full of racist remarks about his Christmas decorations.
Chris Kennedy, from Arkansas, just wanted to spread some joy for the kids in his neighbourhood, so he put up some Christmas decorations outside his house.
It didn't take long for aletter to arrive in his letterbox, from an anonymous neighbour.
Kennedy was shocked by the contents of the letter, which demanded he take down his black Santa.
The Arkansas man said the neighbour didn't complain about the size nor the timing of his decorations and it was simply the fact he included a black Santa that triggered his neighbour.
"I am a Caucasian white man to you and have been for the past 600 years. Your being jealous of my race is no excuse for your dishonesty.
"Besides that, you are making yourself the laughing stock of the neighbourhood."
Alongside the text, the anonymous neighbour included an image of a white Santa, giving two thumbs down.
After posting about the letter on social media, the man has been flooded with messages of support from other neighbours and people from further afield.
Some of the awesome things that the community has dropped off. The chocolate chip cookiesare especially delicious. #loveyourneighbor
