"I will not stay silent."

I received the worst type of letter. A racist hate letter.

It happened a few days after the Atlanta spa shootings. The letter was mailed disguised as a government department. At first I didn't think about posting it on social media but I did. I wanted our community to know that even something as insignificant as a hate letter would not be tolerated. The letter has been reported to police, postal inspector and other law enforcement agencies. The disturbing rhetoric written reminding me of all the times, my family and I, experience racism. Not only physically by bullying in school, but verbally too. I suffered in silence growing up, but I can not let my family or elderly kin be subjected to this hate.

I will not stay silent.
