Against Discrimination; For Difference

Heavens above! My gosh, I never thought anyone would ever call me a racist! Everywhere I’ve worked I’ve busted a gut trying to eradicate all forms of discrimination from the workplace. No, it’s not racist, Tristram—it’s the very opposite of racism. This is all about cultural difference and how we must all learn to respect that. So we shouldn’t think of what the black bear does as being any less valuable than the polar bear’s work. And the colour’s unimportant—goodness! I hadn’t even thought of it that way!—they’re just bears to me.
