An 18-year-old Black woman says she was attacked with lighter fluid and flame early Wednesday morning by white men yelling racial slurs. She sustained second- and third-degree burns.
Althea Bernstein works as an EMT while studying to be a paramedic and firefighter. She says she was on her way to her brother’s house at around 1 am Wednesday when she reached a stoplight on Gorham Street near State Street in downtown Madison. She doesn’t remember for sure which intersection it was.
“I was listening to some music at a stoplight and then all of a sudden I heard someone yell the N-word really loud,” she said in an interview Wednesday. “I turned my head to look and somebody’s throwing lighter fluid on me. And then they threw a lighter at me, and my neck caught on fire and I tried to put it out, but I brushed it up onto my face. I got it out and then I just blasted through the red light … I just felt like I needed to get away. So I drove through the red light and just kept driving until I got to my brother and Middleton.”
A police incident report says the assailants used a spray bottle to spray lighter fluid on her face.
She said she’s reasonably certain it was four white men who “looked like classic Wisconsin frat boys … Two of them were wearing all black, and then the other two were wearing jeans and a floral shirt,” she said. She said the way they walked made her think they were intoxicated.
She said she was aware that protests had been happening, but wasn’t participating. Protests following the arrest of Yeshua Musa were just winding down at around 1 am Wednesday.
I mean... what in the god damn fuk? How do you wake up the next morning with "your boys" and feel like a man knowing you essentially jumped another american woman as a group of 4 men with lighter fluid. Won't lie, this one got me tight misc.

Terrible (assuming she was just an innocent bystander and the rest is true).
Obviously, we have no idea what race the attackers were, but this is exactly the type of **** that we're going to see happen more often.
Regular Black people are going to pay the costs of more racism created by heathens in the streets and the media fanning the flames.Last edited by ArchangelST; 06-25-2020 at 12:04 PM.

There's a major contradiction in her story. She said she was sitting at a light and turned her head when somebody said ******, without warning she realized some had throw lighter fluid on her, then a lighter and at that point she’s trying to put out the fire, she manages to put out the fire and she proceeds to speed through the light.
Then—" She said the way they walked made her think they were intoxicated.” At what point did she see really them walk? In her rearview mirror as she speeds away?

Look,you'd be kidding yourself if you didn't think there were a certain minority not only capable, but willing to do some chit like this, but I think we also need to be level headed. every hoax destroys the credibility of people who are real victims. Hoping it's a hoax sounds just as insane as it being a legit story.

I'm dubious of this being white guys. She wouldnt be "Striking a forgiving tone" if this was an actual hate crime i wouldnt think. I fully expect it to come out that she lied about who did it. Someone find her twitter and other social media and tell me she ISNT a lefist who regularly posts about white supremacy being a huge problem and all
Regardless of who did it though, they need to see some hella hard punishment“That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die.” - The Nameless City by HP Lovecraft
