[quote=Anonymous]I am a relatively new employee in a small unit in a government agency. Thing afternoon, I was discussing work issues with two other women. One of my new colleagues, who is African American, was disclosing that she had been passed over for promotions. She has been there quite awhile apparently and she is African American. I am Caucasian. She said to me "You will do well here and you will be left alone because you are white". I felt so bad and didn't know where to look. I just said "I'm so sorry" and put my head down and went back to work. What should I have said? I didn't know what to say. [/quote]
