Been having many conversations about these things and hearing so many accounts that validate your concerns here. 66 yr old black woman said she was treated like she was gonna stick Walmart up for having on a mask. The story of the black bus driver who made the video after being coughed on then died a couple of days later hit me pretty hard. Bus drivers kicking black people off for not having on masks now. People are seeing that America will use ANY reason to target us. There's no call to refrain from practicing racism against us. It's always open season. What we can do is be safe, eat right as to build our immune systems up as strong as possible, get sunlight, etc. For many black people, our investment in our ability to fight the virus off is our best bet. I'm lucky enough to not have to be out and still getting paid, but many prayers to those who aren't.
