Original caption
‼️These kind of people are who we share our streets and communities with‼️ Maia and Rene Seghini are franchisees of the Taco Rico brand. They own the Kendall restaurant and never once thought of all of this while hurling racial slurs at a bystander. Taco Rico has responded but neither Rene nor Maia have come out with their own apology yet. #miami #florida #tacorico #franchise #fypシ
