What the...

Ok, so I just hear something very interesting. Anyone one who knows me knows that I have very little love for my brother-in-law. There are a lot of reasons why, but I won’t go into all that right now. I’m sure there be much more to come on him AND my beloved sister. I was on the phone with Sis just now. She was asking me about my job, being that I am at work right now. (I don’t usually do weekends, but deadlines are a bitch!) She asked if I was alone, and I told her that 3 guys were here. Then she asked me if I worked with all guys. I started to tell her that while my field is mostly guys, my office is actually very diverse. There are 19 people in my department we have 9 minorities and 6 of us are women. When I was in school, a class of 200 people would sometimes only have a handful of minorities or women. But I digress. Before I got the “but my office is diverse” part out, she says, “Yeah B is a token at his job too”. Now, her hubby, B, is a blond haired blue eyed white guy from a very privileged background. I just said “What?” And she proceeded to tell me that her hubby, the real estate agent, worked for a female minority owned business. First off, I was shocked. This is a man that I have heard make various comments about other racial groups that could be construed as racist. I am thinking, why in the hell would he work there? And why would they want him?? And why is Sis using the term Token???
