The woman wasn’t upset that a blanket and birthday balloons were set up on the sidewalk. That didn’t bother her. She was upset that a BLACK woman and her BLACK daughter were in a space that she felt they didn’t belong in. That is the REAL STORY.
“For centuries, White America has dictated how Black people can navigate our own bodies in spaces. It is not just the physical space itself being regulated by White people but the actual way Black people can use their bodies in these spaces.”

We have to start calling a thing a thing. She is White, she is rich and she feels entitled to control that space and how dare this Black woman be on the sidewalk while she is trying to walk her dog! Anyone else would say how cute, and walk around. No big deal.
