I understand anecdotal evidence is not empirical evidence.  It's like when a black man talks about how white people cross the street at his approach, or how store security follows them around because they wear a hoodie.  People hear this and agree that society is racist, even though this is not overt evidence of racism.

 

So I don't ever want to hear individual tales of racism, sexism, or any other prejudice.  According to the standard on this board, it means the person speaking is the racist.
