00:00:04.870 --> 00:00:10.930 align:middle line:84%
Citizen, the first
section came about

00:00:10.930 --> 00:00:14.350 align:middle line:84%
because I called at my
friends and I said to them,

00:00:14.350 --> 00:00:17.800 align:middle line:84%
"Can you describe to me
a moment when you were

00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:21.970 align:middle line:90%
doing something very ordinary?"

00:00:21.970 --> 00:00:30.280 align:middle line:84%
And suddenly, racism
rerouted that moment.

00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:34.720 align:middle line:84%
And initially, people would
say to me, "Oh, I can't.

00:00:34.720 --> 00:00:38.500 align:middle line:84%
I know it happened, but I
really can't think of anything."

00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:41.380 align:middle line:90%
And I would say, "Sure.

00:00:41.380 --> 00:00:42.760 align:middle line:90%
Not a problem.

00:00:42.760 --> 00:00:46.040 align:middle line:84%
Call me back if you
think of something."

00:00:46.040 --> 00:00:46.915 align:middle line:90%
And then, they would.

00:00:46.915 --> 00:00:50.410 align:middle line:84%
They would call me back and
then they wouldn't stop talking.

00:00:50.410 --> 00:00:52.690 align:middle line:84%
And that was interesting
to me because clearly, they

00:00:52.690 --> 00:00:55.510 align:middle line:84%
had shut it down
in order to do what

00:00:55.510 --> 00:00:57.490 align:middle line:90%
they had to do in their lives.

00:00:57.490 --> 00:01:02.380 align:middle line:84%
But the minute you open the
door, it comes flooding back.

00:01:02.380 --> 00:01:05.019 align:middle line:84%
I mean, every woman
in this room knows

00:01:05.019 --> 00:01:11.390 align:middle line:84%
what I'm talking about
in terms of misogyny.

00:01:11.390 --> 00:01:14.440 align:middle line:90%
So it's the same dynamic.
