The day Challenger exploded, a black racist at my then employer walked in the office and said 7 more white people dead
Scum
I would have gotten extremely perturbed
Over a comment like That.
I was in the Air Force space program at the time, and we had the job of gathering all the space sensor data possible for analysis. We had a black guy say, “White people problems. Who cares?”, and then refused to work on the gathering of data. He thought he was being cute and funny being a “brother”. He was discharged posthaste by a Pilipino Colonel.
Did you tell him he was a f#cking idiot — since one of them (Ronald McNair) was BLACK?
