Hmm. The civil case against Paula Deen was thrown out of court by the judge. Essentially because the judge determined that since the person bringing the suit was not the target of the alleged racial discrimination.

I suppose I follow the logic there, but I'm not entirely comfortable with it. As I see it, that means if I am at a workplace where the management is allowing the N word to be thrown around with impunity, and I'm the only one with enough courage to stand up to it, then I don't get the same legal protection if I decide to confront it, because I'm white and it's not aimed at me. Doesn't sit right.
