How do you know 99% of commenters have never had an experience of being singled out? Is it conceivable that they simply don't agree with her assumptions and approach to dealing with these experiences? I'm a POC working on Bay Street, and certainly find the author's attitude troubling. For instance, she thinks taking off early to play ultimate frisbee should be attributed equal importance as the need to pick kids up from school... Really? Profit driven firms aren't there to cave to your every interest and whim, which frankly have nothing to do with her being black in this case.
