Just 2 days after a racist shot 3 Palestinian students for wearing keffiyehs, I was blocked by @ScotiabankArena from entering the Mariah Carey concert wearing one. I guess I should be glad they didn't also take my Palestinian map necklace passed down to me by my mom.
Today at work a customer said "we need to warm up!" and I responded "you need to warm up big time!" and then I hid in the stairwell and shuddered at myself.
It's been a long road, but after 2 years and 2 months of a global pandemic, I finally went through international airport security, turned around, came home, and chopped off all my hair.
