No one at the counter or register gives me a second look. https://padlet.com/aconstantinescu1/f2o33ptrdanpmlp2/wish/1540528420 2021-05-19 17:01:45 UTC https://padlet.com/aconstantinescu1/f2o33ptrdanpmlp2/wish/1540528420 White privilege in action was the white dude getting help to unlock his bike. Also the white dude has the privilege of being relaxed around other white people JesseTheImaginer https://padlet.com/aconstantinescu1/f2o33ptrdanpmlp2/wish/1540530382 2021-05-19 17:02:09 UTC https://padlet.com/aconstantinescu1/f2o33ptrdanpmlp2/wish/1540530382 The white man got the benefit of the doubt and multiple people helped him. The Black guy didn't get that. aconstantinescu1 https://padlet.com/aconstantinescu1/f2o33ptrdanpmlp2/wish/1540531598 2021-05-19 17:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/aconstantinescu1/f2o33ptrdanpmlp2/wish/1540531598 JesseTheImaginer https://padlet.com/aconstantinescu1/f2o33ptrdanpmlp2/wish/1540538105 If I witnessed that I would hope I could have empathy towards either of them trying to unlock their bikes in broad day light.
