We lived in Alberta and had a "curious" cashier at Walmart. He said "Can I ask you a personal question". I was with my husband and 6 month old twin boys. He proceeded to ask me, "How did THIS happen" (circling his hands at the stroller, then between myself and my husband) a 🧵1/
I was so shocked by the question, initially I said nothing. My husband @husbandofamiev1 heard and came up beside me. The cashier boldly asked again, "How did THIS happen, I mean, well what did your parents think". Still in shock some words finally stumbled out of my mouth/2
"We love each other, and that's all that matters", I said, my voice trembling because I could not believe the question I was actually being asked. The cashier was just about to interrupt with another question, when my husband reiterated what I previously stated more sternly /3

I was called a racist by a white person for saying Fox News and Rebel News are dog whistles “news outlets” for white supremacy. How’s your Saturday going? 😂

@DorisGrinspun Please keep my name out of your mouth.Just like you said to @birgitomo that if she has a problem with someone else, that you do not bring them into it, please respect me and do not drag me into your and Birgit's concerns./1
I was very shocked that at an anti-Black racism event with the @RNAO that I was attending and listening into quietly, that my name was the first name that called out in response to a message that was put in the chat and over a situation I had NOTHING TO DO WITH. /2
These were conversations between yourself, @NatKusendova and Birgit. I am trying to protect my own mental health and clearly you still have an issue with me in regards to white supremacy in nursing. I will not back down from it. There is white supremacy in nursing. /3
