Two Black Women Talking About Me In Front of Me.

At the last adjunct unionizing meeting, I was in a small group with a (black) (female) adjunct and a (black) (female) organizer, to talk about ‘next steps’ in what we could do to move forward at our schools.

When I had mentioned my one situation with class cutting because of “that [first name] guy,” the (black) (female) adjunct repeated me and was like, “‘That [first name] guy,’” and then was like, “He’s hilarious,” to which the (black) (female) organizer was like, “Yep.”


They just said that as asides in normal voices right in front of me, in a moment when I was paused from speaking.
