Just sharing this story...

I went to a flee market yesterday with one of my moms. She is white passing and I have dark skin. I was hoping to get some cool stuff for my bedroom. Unfortunately, countless stairs and mean ass looks were given to me. This flew market was in between

Detroit Lakes, MN and Elbow Lake MN (if I remember correctly) I was overwhelmed by the hundreds, if not thousands of white people who were there and would not stop staring. I was blinded by countless of stands that said “Trump 2020, Keep America Great.”

There were so many signs that condoned the violence of the Trump campaign. I felt scared AF there, extremely uncomfortable, and couldn’t breathe until we were driving away. It is clear my presence made so many people at that Flea Marker uneasy.

So just in case you forgot! This is a day in the life of Black Woman ON the 4th of July! So think about that!

Shout to one of my moms for being there with me and getting me out of there as soon as possible.

I apologize for not writing TW at the beginning of this thread. I should have and I apologize.
