Super Racist Coworker
I just found out that my coworker is very very racist. He told me he believes in segregation and thinks that anyone whose not white shouldn’t be in America. He beat the shit out of a black boy when he was 12 and told me he wishes he could’ve hung him. Even Has “hillbilly honky” tattooed on him and to top it all off his family has ties to the KKK.
I work at a restaurant and he’s on work release so it’s hard to have a conversation longer than it takes to smoke a cigarette but I tried to explain to him that the first humans to exist were from Africa with dark skin and other races are a result of migration and evolution, he just doesn’t believe me. Says humans were originally white?
I’ve only dealt with people who are more systematically racist rather than “blacks are less than whites, so let’s hang them” racist. I’ve done my fair share of having solid conversations with people and dismantling stereotypes and what not but this is just a fucking lot to unravel and I don’t even know where to start. He also doesn’t seem to believe anything I say and told me he was raised that way and can’t change. What do I do? I don’t want to shun him and let him continue to be a threat to society. I really want to make a difference.
Anyone have experience with this or know of any resources?
TLDR; help me fix my scummy racist coworker
