[quote=Anonymous]While you and your daughter are absolutely right, I would not say anything and get through the class and then complain after she gets her grade. I had an issue in a class and complained and when it didn't work, went over the professors head (safety issue, not comments I did not agree with) and while the other professor got me out of the situation (internship), it followed me until I graduated. That professor and a few others treated me very poorly. It sucks, but in the real world things happen. Tell her not all white people feel that way, but she isn't going to change a racist, especially in that environment. I'd encourage her to transfer to a more diverse school that is more welcoming. (P.S. my child is adopted and I'd tell her the same thing if there were adoption comments - some situations I would speak up but not in a situation like this). It is good to advocate for yourself but in this situation you cannot change crazy.[/quote]
