After picking up a pre-order at Wal-Mart (the service, BTW,
is amazing!), I waited for the bus on a dingy block sporting a
brass-and-glass furniture mart, wig shop, and ubiquitous
liquor store. Nice weather, so lots of guys hanging out on the
corner smoking, talking. Moms hustling kids along the
crosswalk at a light that's too short—"Vamos! Vamos!" An
elderly neighbor spotted me from across the street, waving
his arms and shouting "Hi!" Another neighbor, who is
mentally disabled, picked up and smoked a cigarette butt off
the sidewalk, saw me, said "Heeeyyy" then excitedly told me
all about his trip to Cleveland. And there I was, with my light
complexion and Anthro dress, fitting right in with the fabric
of America.
It's just as easy to strike up a conversation with a person who
looks/dresses/acts nothing like you as it is to hide behind a
screen and rant racist asshole venom. Choose the former.
