“You can only be destroyed by believing that you really are what the white world calls a nigger” (James Baldwin).
so yea, awkward moment number one today. some obviously racist guy sittin' in the back of a truck decided to taunt me as he rode by yelling out nigger nigger nigger... it didin't really bother me cuz it's happened before and i mean, it takes A LOT to get me mad, plus... he wasn't very creative with it, so i didn't really give it the time of day. i knew coming to App that i would probably face that anyway, so i was prepared. if he weren't in a moving truck though, i might've reacted differently cuz... i wasn't doing anything but just standing there. all in all it was another interesting experience in my life, and i'm sure it'll prolly happen again cuz.. well that's just the way it is.
