No matter what you say or do people are going to see what they chose to see. Unfortunately you can't change that but you can call them on their inappropriate behavior. If you allow people to say what they want without letting them know who youy are and how you expect to be treated they will treat you however. I am the only African American female at my job and sometimes white folks just don't know that they are being offensive. So we must let them know. Always be professional, always be forthright, and always show the pride of your heritage when you speak. But don't be afraid to say what needs to be said!
Just my advice
