On a return flight I was at JFK airport in New York and was apparently lost in a corridor. A black luggage handler, while walking with an old white male patron in the opposite direction JFK put his hand on my shoulder. In response I told him not to touch me. Yes, a covered Sunni Muslim who is a Black woman. No woman deserves to be touched by a stranger but this Black male went out of his way to disrespect me especially in the presence of a white man.
He begans to yell AT ME (because apparently black men think women are property or objects and have no rights to their bodily integrity) because I refuse to be disrespected, nonetheless by a stranger. You could tell he was an inner city minimum wage worker whom no one would keep company with. Way to go black man.
