My sister and I were walking to get in line for an Asian grocery market in Berkeley when an unmasked man from a nearby auto repair shop walked up directly to us and said, "F*ck you CCP (Chinese Communist Party), it's your fault for bringing the virus here, go back to your country!" We yelled back at him for spewing racial slurs at us and he continued to taunt us. Then he proceeded to harass all the people in line to the grocery market (majority Asian people) and went on a racist tirade, going right up into people's faces and yelling "F*ck you Chinese," along with other hateful speech.
