(19,066 posts)IF 54% of whites still support the White Supremacist in Chief, that means the majority of whites are in fact racist.
I work for a fortune 25 sized company, you wouldn't believe what you hear from people in conference rooms when no minorities are around, it's disgusting and I've spent too many hours in HR's office trying to hold people accountable.
From the relatively innocuous of, "we should get so and so on our team for after work basketball", to the blatantly racist, "He's one of the good ones." I've heard a lot, the thing with me is I do not care who the hell is around, I'm not going to brush it off, I'm going to say something and then I'll take it to HR if I have to.
And the higher you climb the corporate ladder, the worse it gets. And it's gotten worse, not better.
