<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bryan21384, post: 11465534, member: 33397&quot;]I understand where you&#039;re coming from. As a person of color, I never play the race card. Honestly, I can&#039;t say that I&#039;ve experience a whole lot of racist issues. Even though I don&#039;t experience them, I will still listen. I find it important to be aware of what&#039;s happening in society. I think it&#039;s good to listen to an objective ear, because sometimes it is racism and other times it isn&#039;t. In the OP&#039;s case, it&#039;s really inconclusive. She was there and we weren&#039;t. I don&#039;t totally dismiss it because prejudices, stereotypes, and racists are very much live in our industry. I&#039;ve seen instances on TTR that were a bit out of line, in my opinion. In 12 years, maybe twice I&#039;ve experienced a little prejudice. It sucks but out here, I gotta have a short memory about that stuff because it&#039;s on to the next load. That&#039;s how I cope. Not everyone copes like me, so that&#039;s why I listen to what others go through and try not to downplay it. That&#039;s why I am encouraging folks to listen objectively, some may heed what I&#039;m saying others may not. It ain&#039;t in everyone&#039;s capabilities to try to relate or understand others that don&#039;t look or think like them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
