Luna just wanted to help someone out before their job interview. That’s it. She was doing her job—and trying to give someone a shot at their future. But when the stylist refused to cut his hair right in front of him, all Luna could do was watch as that opportunity slipped away.

Discrimination doesn’t always come with slurs or shouting. Sometimes it shows up in whispers and side-eyes. In the refusal to serve someone. In the “not my problem” shrugs. In the silence that follows.

This comic is based on a real experience—and no, no one was held accountable. The salon kept its “welcoming” branding, and the stylists faced no consequences. And the worst part? That man walked out with his head down, like he was the problem.

These moments stay with us. For the people like him, and for the rest of us who try to hold the line, only to realize the line was never drawn in our favor.

We’re still fighting. And we’re still here.

If you’ve been through something like this—whether you were the one targeted or the one left powerless watching—drop a comment. Let’s make space to say we see you.

White people who think racism is mostly a thing of the past, or that if people of color have trouble getting jobs it must be because they're lazy or unqualified, you need to take a look at this: https://tech.lgbt/@kitsunecafe/113199844429725786

Racists are everywhere, including in "liberal" or "enlightened" fields like tech, and they'll just deadass scuttle people's chances of getting hired for bogus reasons.
