About ten, fifteen feet from the bus I was surrounded by a group of whites. It scared the hell out of me because -- and I remember the exact words -- "What the hell you doing down here, Yankee!" The bus driver, bless him, reached out, grabbed me, pulled me in, and drove off. -Ed Kale (Breach of Peace, Etheridge, 2018)
