I was harassed by TSA agents at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City. Upon arriving at the airport, I was asked to comply with a search, despite having already gone through security. The TSA agents were rude and unprofessional, and it felt like they were targeting me because I was brown. I was subject to unfair scrutiny. This experience was extremely unpleasant and I would not want anyone to have to go through this. This sort of behavior is disgusting and I would like to make a formal complaint about the racism I experienced. It is my hope that something will be done to ensure that this kind of discrimination no longer happens in airports.
