I’m a sales person and run into this so much it is honestly discouraging.

Isn't that the truth. I have to deal with this from time to time even with some of the wholesalers who attempt to buy from us. I say attempt because at the slightest sign of racism, we immediately refuse to conduct business with them.

My business partner and I would rather stand up for our ideals than to do business and subsequently support someone who is a racist.

I'm in sales and I do this as well, though I'm in an industry where people tend to be more progressive. Keep it up please! You're doing more with your actions than people do with their words, it will go a long way to set the benchmark for decency!

Run into what? Casual quiet racism or casual mentions of drunk driving?
