At a Donald Trump rally on Monday, a woman in the crowd cracked open a copy of what appears to be Claudia Rankine’s Citizen, a book of poetry about race and racism in America.

She waited until about 12 minutes into his speech…

…texted for a bit…

…had a short conversation…

…and cracked open the book…

…to really read it up close.
