“I did not feel safe around my neighborhood”

In Stories, street harassment | on 07.17.12 | by | Comments ( 1 )

Today, I was walking on the sidewalk when a man on the opposite sidewalk started yelling at me in a nasty tone of voice. I ignored him and continued walking. However, he became more aggressive saying stuff like, “Yo girl! Over here!!” His violent tone scared me to death. And for once, I did not feel safe around my neighborhood.

This week it seems females writing in have been harassed on their door step, street and balcony. I hate it that we can’t feel safe even at home. So sorry.
