[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not all but a lot of Africans look down on African Americans.  So I doubt it was a setup.  If she would have said that gay students are horrible or do not care about their education.   If she were white and made the same comment would you say something?  If you said yes to any of these questions then you should say something.  I would not want someone like this, judging people as a group vs an individual, teaching my child.  Would you want your black child being taught by her?  It is not a setup, she figured that since you were white you would share her views.[/quote]

Likewise, if you were on the b-ball courts and she were saying that the white children are just horrible at sports...if you would have challenged something under those circumstances then you should say something now..

For me, I would have not acknowledged it after that 1 incident and instead just moved on.  In a work environment  where I earn the living that puts food on my table and a roof over my children's heads, I pick my battles, and sometimes it's worth assuming a bad comment is a 1-time transgression.  If she brings it up a second time, then yes she is now exhibiting a pattern of behavior so I would challenge it directly before it gets out of hand.
