I knew a man who was very racist. His sister, however, was not and had worked as a missionary in New Guinea. No, she didn't go to forcibly convert people, she went to help with humanitarian issues. After their mother died (she was 83) the sister told her brother that their great-grandfather was Chinese. Sadly, the man did not become less racist, he denied his Chinese ancestry. Some might have naively asked, "But if he was racist, why did he go to a Chinese restaurant with a Vietnamese couple?" The explanation for that is his wife worked for a company and the Vietnamese couple were clients of the company and it was a free meal. Also, he drove a Japanese vehicle, but that was because the company where his wife worked had a good deal with a dealership and they even had discounts for family members. The woman saw that a manager got that deal and decided, while her husband was away, to order one for him.
