I’m surprised they weren’t also filming her, that seems to be so common now too.
I love u amber Riley
The fact something like that is not obviously seen as harassment, which it is, is disgusting. Stop policing people!
was never gagging at the “america is going backwards 🥺” comments from white people when #HE got elected, we never went forwards. even in america’s most “progressive”, they still hate us.
Ugh I hate that people have nothing better to do than to harass POC, probably drunk off their sense of moral high ground 🙄
So many racist people think it’s their job to harass and police anyone of color. I just saw a video of a Black guy who had two weird white men in the park call the cops on him because he wouldn’t answer their questions. He was just hanging out in the park and they demanded he explain himself to them. Just civilians interrogating strangers because they feel like they’re in charge of everything. I hate it here so damed much, and by here, I mean Earth. Racism is everywhere.
$500 it was Lea Michelle
just awful
She’s totally right. Don’t feed the trolls, women and people like this live for the drama. They live to cry outrage and be seen as a martyr. They are like those people that go into a restaurant or small business and try to cancel them over nothing burgers to make themselves feel good about their shitty small ass lives. We all know the type, they are constantly complaining about something stupid as if it’s a personal attack and when you first meet them they tell you the worst thing that’s ever happened to them to garner sympathy. But at some point they slip and say some racist shit and it all clicks. I feel like they are becoming more prevalent or maybe just louder.
she decided to comment *at* her, not even engaging in polite conversation or saying, ‘hello’, about some kind of ‘bad behavior’ she wanted to pin on her. she was accusing her of doing something with no evidence because she’s racist and wanted to bait amber into an argument to try and play victim. weaponized privilege. i guarantee the white woman would’ve tried crying. she would’ve accused amber of doing something to gravely upset them to the point of tears. and also just pinning an act like that on amber of ALL people in the park?? why amber?? can’t the woman see she even has bags on her leash?? she clearly has picked up after her dog?? it’s just so wicked
White women have done this for ages. If you have a white female friend and she’s a real one (not racist and protects pocs behind your back too) keep her because they’re rare. They’re liberal for the gram but will walk the other way if someone looking to “urban” is coming their way.
Honestly, I’m so grateful to her for saying something bc I’m going thru a 1.5 year long struggle with a lunatic white man who has done this to me and my friends. I haven’t reacted once, bc I saw how he got away with lying on them, but it burns me UP to have to keep silent. In fact, I was thinking maybe next time he pretends to spit on me, I’ll cuss him out, but now I won’t.
She’s 100% correct.
Makes me think of the women who would bait black men into arguments and then cry to everyone about how threatening he was being. Like the guy who was fucking birdwatching.
They know exactly what they are fucking doing.
Damn they didn’t even have this much energy for the puppy on the wee wee pad…
This happened to me years ago with someone in my neighborhood. I was walking by myself when an older woman came running out claiming my dog was shitting on their yard and I wasn’t picking it up. Unfortunately, I did give a reaction since my dog had died months earlier…
This happened to my Chinese mother too. She got approached and harassed by a white lady in our neighbourhood, and her husband and neighbour joined in. It seems like a common tactic to be able to harass WOC, because once the white lady who had been letting her dogs poop everywhere was pointed out, suddenly it wasn’t a big deal.
She harassed me a bit too, but only after she realized we were related (I’m quite white passing). Wild how they’ll just use any excuse to get the jump on people.
This is just good advice for anyone randomly harassing you in public no matter your or their skin color tbh.
I’ve never understood them claiming they “feel threatened” meanwhile they’re all up in your personal space asking you questions as if you are obligated to answer them.
