Have you ever had a racist experience while traveling?

Facts no cap. I don’t wear hijab so fortunately I get privilege but my sister and mom who do wear it have uncomfortable experiences, not just at the airport but every day and everywhere
Sending love to my hijabi queen 🫶
I once was traveling with my mom’s frozen Indian food (which she spent ALL DAY cooking for me out of the purest love, I live in a different state and hadn’t seen her in nearly 6 months) and my carry-on got flagged for second screening at security. The TSA agent saw the palak and asked, with utmost concern, if I was trying to smuggle feces. Then he asked me to open the ziploc so he could smell it and prove it wasn’t feces - which would have meant throwing out the food anyway because the ziploc wouldn’t have closed again. Another agent overheard, called him out, and asked if I would be comfortable lodging a formal complaint. I was so shellshocked that I said no and just ran to the gate. But I haven’t seen the fuckface at that airport since so maybe the other guy got him fired? Wishful thinking? Ugh.
WOWWWW. That’s wild.. on their part! My family takes food too lol 😂
Not me but once my mother was screamed at by a white lady in her row for having a conversation on the phone in Spanish. If the woman was just annoyed about the phone call I could have understood it, but she screamed "talk English" at my mother so... Anyways she was removed from the flight!
