“The little I ask you is not to promote it on that”
What is “it? What is “that”? What was she “promoting”? Curious choice of words. Promoting something using “race”? Not approving of using race for a promotion wouldn’t necessarily be racist.
This sentence is “context” to his so-called racist remarks.
Without understanding what he meant by this statement, I can’t determine how racist, if at all, his comments were. Why can everyone one else do so?
I sense he was TRYING to be FUNNY but I could be mistaken
