Scenario

When business partners experience discrimination differently

My business partner handles all our client-facing work and I handle the backend operations, and lately several clients have been making comments to them that feel racially coded to me, but my partner doesn't see it the same way and thinks I'm reading too much into normal business friction. I'm starting to dread client interactions and feel like I can't trust their judgment about when we should push back or walk away from problematic clients.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two partners are navigating how different social positions create different experiences of the same interactions, making it difficult to make shared decisions about boundaries and responses.
