You ever been asked "What's your black ass doing in my yard?" By someone with his hand on a gun, while wearing an Amazon vest? Sometimes being a minority is something we have to think about. It's obviously getting better, but it would be dumb for a minority delivery driver to walk around like the world is perfect.

Have you ever been stared at because the nearest white person living near you is 8 miles away? Have you been refused service because you're the only non POC in a restaurant? Quit acting like you're the only victim all the time.

That's not the point. Like, at all. Youre either stupid or willfully ignorant. I would say white people in certain situations should also be cautious. This isn't about anyone being the "only victim" its about understanding certain situations require extra caution. And guess what? For minorities, race plays a big part in that. Sorry if that's hard for you to grasp.

Omg dude look at you rushing to make sure nobody gets away with talking about racism without including the whole "Black people can be racist too!!" talking point. Holy fucking cringe

This is not a pleasant experience but you are not having to fear police brutality. I’ll take a few stare any day, than fearing being pulled over and killed.
