I'm on the train to NYC and 2 seats ahead of me are two guys, speaking in Arabic. One of them has Arabic tattooed on his, admittedly, very muscular arms.
So far, he's gotten up twice to get his backpack from the overhead section (I've gotten up once). Is it racist or good common sense to view these activities with an extra degree of suspicion that I wouldn't if the African-American woman across the aisle from me were to do the exact same thing?
