November 15, 2016. Women's literature student Halley Bass called the police to report that a random white guy walked up to her in the street and scratched her face with a safety pin because she expressed her support for black people in the UK after the country voted to leave the European Union.

I was encouraged to report it to the police. I made the mistake of doing that."
