I Got Called a Racist at Work

<p>Some days ago, I was talking to a coworker I will call Ken. Ken is Chinese American, though that doesn&rsquo;t matter, not to me anyway. Up until now, I had assumed we were friends. Despite hailing from conservative Oklahoma, Ken leans hard to the left politically. I didn&rsquo;t know just how much, until I inadvertently stumbled across his trip wire.</p> <p>Talking politics is like tiptoeing through a mine field. Somehow our conversation turned political, a subject I&rsquo;ve always been told one should avoid, assiduously. I don&rsquo;t remember exactly how, but Trump reared his ugly, balding head in the conversation.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@melcarriere/i-got-called-a-racist-at-work-938ca481bf9b"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
