Perhaps the woman and child and their SUV were emitting micro-aggressions.

Well, a lot of the details just scream white privilege, don't you know.

Just look:
The incident began around noon when the woman picked her daughter up from music class.

Music class? Only whites who benefit from unspoken institutional racism and privilege can afford to bring their children to music class (where they likely study classical music composed centuries ago by white European males and feel no ill effects from it).

She had just strapped her child in the car and was looking for snacks in her diaper bag when she looked up and saw a group of teenagers rushing up on her and trying to surround her car.

My word, the privilege. A car seat, snacks, a bag set aside solely from diapers (and diaper snacks apparently)

According to the woman, she frantically locked and closed the car door and ran to the driver’s side and safely locked herself in the car. The door on the other side of the car was still unlocked, but she was able to hop over into the other seat and lock it as well.

No doubt she was frantic because her covert racism kicked in upon seeing black teenagers.
One thing I don't understand is that she is a privileged white woman in Georgetown yet still doesn't have power locks.
