We were there to get a vehicle full of guns and somehow Brian ended up getting a job offer and I was called an undocumented immigrant. That’s how systemic racism works. It was so dumb it was almost funny. It was the story of my life: my education and my résumé never looked as good or as trustworthy as a white man in a suit. This time around, I was losing a job opportunity to a sweaty junkie with bloodshot eyes who’d been eating Adderall like candy.
