She would later write on her blog:

“On December 27, I read at The Other Change of Hobbit.  An audience of 8, plus 3 store staff were in attendance.  Only one white person sitting there.  I thought ‘This must be the most black people this store has ever seen.'”

Rather presumptious. She don’t know the Berkeley demographic very well, do she?
