I’ve had people laugh. Others just stare. One or two people murmured some kind of critical response that I couldn’t hear. I find it strange and just wanted to know if this is an ordinary experience. It’s rare for someone to agree. I live in a rich white area.

    A few weeks ago I was wearing a keffiyeh and an old white dude in a pickup pulled up next to me, rolled down the window, and chanted "USA! USA!" before speeding off.

    Pretty wild whiplash, going from being worried I was gonna get hate crimed to doubling over laughing at the absurdity of it all.
