...had a customer once insist that I was the manager, and refuse to talk to anyone but me (the only white guy there, & the newest employee)

Cool Story. I worked at McDonalds and had 3 co-workers call me racist slurs in Punjabi daily. But that doesn't count right?

it counts

~2 The reason I knew what they were saying is my friend from childhood is a Sikh. If we weren't colorblind we'd have lost out

can't you be friends without being colorblind?

Why is the color of my friend's skin more important than what he does that makes my life better for having him in it???

that's not what I'm saying. To me "colorblind" implies a phony obliviousness to the social reality of race that's not helpful.

In the place I grew up you don't hear the racial slurs anymore, because these people are our friends, co-workers, and family
