So this happened today. I was waiting to check out at Wal-Mart right after work. I was tapped on the shoulder by two people behind me. They asked if I worked at Towson. (I was wearing a Towson University polo.) I replied, Yes. They uttered, Housekeeping? I mentioned I work in Student Affairs, where I supervise student staff in the residents halls on campus. Who were these two behind me? Fellow people of color. Are we still in the age where people, even people of color themselves, see POCs as unable to hold administrative positions but only to clean and sanitize? Arent we more than that?
