## Resource

A terrifying incident unfolded on a Queens bus when a man brandished a box cutter and demanded if two young women were Muslim, threatening violence. Though no one was harmed and the suspect fled before any physical contact, authorities are treating it as a hate crime. The NYPD’s Hate Crime Task Force is now investigating, and they’re urging the public to come forward with any tips—via Crime Stoppers hotline, online, or through X. If you saw something, say something. This is a critical moment to stop hate before it escalates. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
