Prejudice is stronger than patriotism

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you see me?

My hoodie? | My camouflage? | The "US Army" sewn on my chest? | The paratrooper wings? | My hands in the air? | My wedding ring? | The exhausted look on my face?

For some, the first and only thing they can see is a Black man, because for some, prejudice is stronger than any patriotism in this picture.
