A thankfully nice outcome from a terrible racist action. Very glad that phone call didn't lead to something bad and this girl now gets celebrated for the time she spent doing the right thing for nature & the environment. nytimes.com/2023/02/02/nyregio

"The Yale School of Public Health … held a ceremony citing Bobbi Wilson’s efforts to rid Caldwell, New Jersey, of the spotted lanternfly …

"An assistant professor at the public health school, Ijeoma Opara, told those at the ceremony that she organized the event to bring attention to Bobbi’s “bravery and how inspiring she is”."

A neighbour called police on 22 October 2022 when 9-year-old Bobbi, who is Black, was spraying invasive spotted lanternflies harming trees near her home, sparking national discussion about the dangers of racial profiling.
