I'm not sure if this is appropriate since I joined yesterday, but it's been bothering me lately.
As I said in my introduction, I had an incident weeks ago, that caused me to take Islam seriously. A woman accosted me near Central Park. She bumped into me on purpose and started screaming racial epithets: terrorist, d**head, sand n***er. People witnessed it and we called the authorities. They told us that it was quote unquote, freedom of speech.
Again, I know I'm new here, so this is probably not the appropriate time to talk about this to strangers. It's been on my mind lately. Weeks have gone by and I still see this woman in the neighborhood. She even did it to the Muslim hot dog vendor at the corner a few days ago. Same thing. Authorities were called, they did nothing.
I know I shouldn't let it disrupt me from concentrating at work. This is the first time I've heard sand n word in years. Yet, I find my mind wandering when I'm supposed to be focusing on other tasks.
I've begun reading the Koran weeks ago, in defiance of people (some of them Middle Eastern) who say that it's —-. It's not —-. I don't understand much of it, but the parts I do understand bring me some hope for the future.
