Yesterday at work, I had so many people ask me if I were okay - TopicsExpress



          

Yesterday at work, I had so many people ask me if I were okay after the Eric Garner decision. It was funny. Some of the people were concerned others didnt understand why I had a look of frustration on my face, and other knew exactly why I looked frustrated and only wanted a reaction out of me. I even overheard co-workers asking each other why the TV was on CNN and then glance at me (yes I saw that). And throughout the day, I listened to so many conversation taking place amongst my co-workers and no one cared about what was on the news but me. Its times like this when you realize know matter how much you like the people around you, as one of only a few African-American males there at the time, I was truly alone.
