I am hesitant to post this as I’m not sure if this would support my mental health, however their faces should be displayed because they both harassed and violated me. I was walking down the stairs to the Columbus Circle station and a woman and man were in front of me. I politely said ‘Excuse me’ to the woman to which she was turned around to face me and responded passive aggressively and then the man said something along the lines of ‘Get the f out of here.’ I said shut up and walk through the turnstile thinking that interaction ended. As I was walking closer to the 1 train platform, I see the man walk up to me and he stands less than an inch from me (his feet almost touching mine). I step back and grab my phone to record out of fear of my safety. Their ‘son’ throws insults at me and the family continues to stay with me and mock me as I’m waiting for my train. I kept yelling ‘Get away from me. You followed me.’ They finally left (to a different platform than the one I initially went to mind you). I don’t expect anything tangible to come of this, however I do believe in the power of holding people accountable. #harassment #nycsubway #women #safety #protection…
