“I didn’t really care if they branded me a troublemaker because I hadn’t gotten that far in my life and overcome all these things to get treated inappropriately," Fowler told the Timesabout Uber.
"I wasn’t going to take it. I’d worked so hard. I deserved so much better. And I was, like, ‘No. That’s not OK. You don’t get to do that.’”
