@MeganTStevenson It was strange and not even the weirdest part of the interaction. He seemed upset that I didn’t want to argue with him, but what’s the point of arguing with an officer willing to openly lie? I just stayed calm until I became too afraid to hide my fear. Lasted about an hour.
Someone once emailed the forward to get me fired, even though I didn't even work there and only wrote like 2 op-eds for the publication. Why did he do it? Because I criticized Bernie Sanders.

I imagine some academics think I'm unqualified to "objectively" examine the police because I'm too subjective or too close to the object. But I wonder whether they have they considered the subjectivity of their positions, getting to only think about police in moments of crisis.
Yet it seems impolite to mention these things. I hope faculties and Appointments Chairs consider this. I've been able to respond to the inconvenience of easily dismissed tickets & multiple court appearances because of my flexibility as a professor. But what about everyone else?
We rarely publicly discuss how differently Black & marginalized people experience these "idyllic" college towns (and many cities). They often have racist police; schools trying to push Black kids into special ed or discipline; and few spaces to feel fully at home.
The last encounter was frightening. It involved backup, a racist officer, bold lies, and claims I was in a ATV (I was in a minivan). I had to FaceTime my mother. I let the officer know and verbally said I was afraid because I otherwise I might be the next Sandra Bland.
What's it like to be a Black professor: Since moving to Ithaca, police have stopped me SIX times. I received two tickets for driving w/o a license (I have a valid license). One for driving an ATV on the highway (I have no ATV and probably wouldn't drive one on highway 81).
This really ties into how these actions reinforce imposter syndrome in Black professionals when really, people think that 1 they’re doing you a favor by hiring you and 2 you’re not smart enough to be there 3 you’re a token/AA hire.

The antiBlackness and utter racism of trying to get Black people fired, or damage their careers & ability to provide, for sharing an opinion that makes you feel a way is deeply, horrifyingly familiar. The practice of curtailing Black speech and political rights/activity, was a…
