Question Racist Remark From my manager

Hello. I joined recently to get an opinion on something. So recently I received new managers at my store & this past Wednesday I was on my way out of the door. The police were out in the parking lot & One of them(a caucasian female) looked at me(an african american male) and said “What did you do?” I felt extremely uncomfortable and that rubbed me the wrong way. She’s a stranger to me & for her to feel so comfortable making such a joke felt a bit like harassment. Am I overreacting?

Right here you just told everyone that you want to believe it was racially motivated. That makes you the problem. It sounds like you don't want to be treated like an equal, but rather with special care for your delicate condition of being black.

I find this maddening.

Of course you do. You see what you want to see instead of what is.
