    First, I’m not sure what ‘betraying your own race’ refers to, but then I consider my race to be ‘human’.

    I lock my car door any time someone is walking close to my car, after having somebody reach through my window and grab me while I was stopped at a red light. The person who sees me lock it may make any kind of assumption they want about why I’m doing it. I don’t care what they think. I think it would be foolish to take safety precautions only when a particular race of person is around – there is plenty of crime being committed by all kinds of people. Why only keep yourself safe from 12 percent of the population?

    I don’t want to be blamed or singled out because of the behavior of people of my skin color, or of people who drive a car like mine or wear my style of clothes or any superficial characteristic. You’ve had some bad experiences, but believe me, some people have had worse experiences with white people. We are all responsible for our actions and nobody else’s. If you want to classify people by race or whatever, that’s your responsibility, not the responsibility of some criminal who happened to be of a particular race you don’t like.
