In a legal office in the UK, a man of mixed English, Scottish, and Indian descent found himself the target of his American coworker’s offensive behavior. The coworker, who prided himself on being culturally diverse, would constantly make everything about race, even going as far as learning Hindi to communicate exclusively in the language with the man. Eventually, the man decided to report his coworker to HR and record their interactions, leading to unexpected consequences.
