## Resource

A recent move to L.A. turned wild when a racist outburst at a Studio City restaurant forced a brave stand-up moment — Monica called him out, the whole room fell silent, and the guy bolted. The waiter even gave them free dessert. While the narrator admits he’d have let it slide, Monica’s courage made him rethink his passivity. And just as he was starting to feel like L.A. might actually be home — thanks to a new acting gig — he realized this city’s dreams come with a price: you’ve got to stand up for what’s right.
