Have you or a loved one ever experienced racial violence?

Question

Answer

My stepdad is black and is in his 60s and he said when he was a kid he remembered seeing burning crosses in front of his families house. :( 
In 2001, my cousin was also cornered by KKK members while she was visiting my grandmother in the hospital. She was with her daughter (mixed) and pregnant with her son. They were in the waiting room because only one person could go back to visit at the time. When my mom came back from visiting my grandmother, my cousin was crying. She said there were about 4 of them and they said horrible things to her. Saying she was going to hell and she betrayed her kind. The nurse told my mom she witnessed it, but at the time nothing could be done.

Answer

My family is primarily white, but my cousins are all biracial and I hope to god they never have to experience that kind of fear or pain.
