Racially Profiling?
Probably the hit of the inauguration of Prez Joe Biden , might just have been the Poet Amanda Gorman ...who gave a wonderful poetry reading at it...many were so impressed by her, they had her in the future of politics... she is 22 and a Harvard graduate ...the downside?...she was harassed by a security guard as she was about to enter her apartment in Los Angeles ...he labeled her 'suspicious' ...really?... I bring this up, as I was asked in my own building yesterday ...in the elevator, by a long time white resident... 'do you live here?' ...at first, I thought it was funny....since we have lived here for 10 years or so...something like that...I responded, 'I am married to Marsha' ...having thought longer about it, was this a form of racial profiling? ... I am dark, as ya'll know ...or was this just a very insensitive remark by a very ...well...inquisitive (?) person?... Perhaps, it is the masks ...hard to see who is behind them?...I mean, all us dark skin ...
