[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a white teacher. I'd be flattered if someone described my work as "professional". It's a compliment. Nothing more. I have no clue why you think that is a race issue. I'm more worried about the fact that you were noting the color of everyone.[/quote] Part of it was the tone in which the comment was made, which I can't replicate here. But the responses to date suggest it's over-analysis on my part. I'm happy to hear that. I want the teacher to feel welcome in the community. [/quote] OP, quite frankly, you are the one who is being racist by assuming that the teacher would be offended by this statement. That's your own misplaced guilt talking.[/quote] That is not racism. Racism would be fighting tooth and nail to defend tacky comments by white folks because you are white too.[/quote]
