Why does ANY kid need a hoodie (with hood on) INSIDE a mall?

That's just unnecessary and rude.

I was just at the mall with my AA 16 year old son and I made him remove his hoodie. I hate having to live this way. Causing a complex for him, while attempting to keep him safe...

Vote in your own neighborhood.

Have ballots at your voting location.

No chance that he might have chuckled because you called the police about an injured deer?



No, she was glad that I called. It was disrupting traffic. The police were there in 4 minutes. All she wanted to know was if the deer was still alive.


I’ve called the police to dispatch wounded deer as well......it’s the humane thing to do. Not sure why you needed to declare your race but well done in any event.

I am a white woman with very curly hair that I straighten. I get the same comments. There is definitely a bias against natural hair in the workplace.


Hygiene?

Do your job as an armed security guard, apprehend a suspect, without being shot dead by police.

House-sit for white friends, unless those friends personally introduce you to all the neighbors before they leave.

Be better at your job than your white peers and managers.

Hate people for their race.
