Every black person I know has a few stories like that many have more than a few.
Its a lot, she said.
The event happened just a few years ago in Chicago where Ruffin was spending some time with her friends.
This man is livid!
It makes no sense!
His anger level towards me is insane!
Im a young, adorable delight literally skipping down the street, and Ive infuriated him.
Hes suddenly professional instead of antagonistic.
Can you imagine having someone pulling a gun on you and being expected to take it in stride?
On Wednesday, Ruffin returned with another story from when she lived in Chicago.
Just kidding, I have more!
The respect this cop just automatically had for my friend Ill never forget seeing it, Ruffin said.
Dont let it cost more lives.
Dont let people get away with racist crap not anymore.
Its a new day.
