I'm in a Blue part of Maryland and feel pretty safe here. A few years back, a guy followed me into Trader Joe's and called me a Chinese bitch, then went to the back into the storage area. I told the management, and they said there is nobody here as I described him. Now I wonder if I should have pushed back harder. I wondered if I cut him off with my car or took a parking space. Very mixed area population wise.
Hi Susan I’ve been retired from teaching for five years—my Asian students were memorable and some of my favorites. It’s late in the day for us here on the east coast. I’m very glad our President and Vice President are making a trip to the Atlanta area today. With your past situation that you shared, I’m glad you didn’t put yourself at greater risk with this racist. Stay safe!
Hi Susan yes I can only imagine what it’s like not to be able to blend in—what state are you in? Be very careful.

Or, Susan, if you didn't do anything and just were.
