       Own Property
       >
       > Another day, another Karen. A video has been circulating
       social media of a white woman calling the police to report a
       Black man for standing outside his house, according to The
       Seattle Times. Yes, just standing. The woman accused the man of
       being a burglar but insisted race had “nothing to do” with her
       choice to profile him.

       happens to be the only black man on the block) walk inside our
       house, and turned around to demand that he proved he lived here.
       Then she called the cops.”
       >
       > Barnes said he told the woman he had moved in three weeks ago,
       but she proceeded to accuse him of trespassing. “If you guys
       have a lease, I’d just like to see the lease,” the woman said in
       the video.
       > ...
       > How much do you want to bet she would’ve left it alone if
       Barnes was white?
       > ...
       > Given the amount of fatal interactions Black people have with
       police, it should be illegal to call the police on us for no
       good reason.

       It's OK for discomfort to be "white"?

       since admitted to (why has she not been arrested and charged?!).
       It is a sentient trope that is likely never going away as long
       as white supremacy rules the land.

       neighborhood when his white woman neighbor, who was on a bike,
       accused him of speeding and “almost hitting” her with his car.
       When Owens parked his car and got out to discuss the issue, the
       woman immediately switched into white-lady-victim mode and
       called the police.
       >
       > Owens went live on his Instagram account to record the
       incident. In the video, the woman can be heard talking to police
       through her “tears,” saying she was scared because Owens was “a
       Black man coming towards a white woman,” and honestly that was
       all I needed to hear to know what her motivation was.

       revealed that Asian American hosts on the online home-sharing

       discrimination.”

       encountered a 12 percent decrease in guests compared to hosts
