Bigotry, racisms, homophobia and Islamaphobia seems to have been legitimised now after Trump’s shocking win. 
 

People have been sharing incidents just a day later where they have been directly affected or know someone who has. 
 

This has been shared over social media in a collection of tweets and Facebook called Day 1 in Trump’s America by Insanul Ahmed, a senior editor with the Genius.
