as an executive she should have known your back ground and type person you are and not even associated it with her remark. That is a term i often heard and would never associate that with being racist but being from the north the only thing i new about being a coon was a racoon. I still think that's what it means.. i guess i would have to goog it to find out? g

imo a poor example of a person trying to teach diversity in the work place. I hope she did better training other minorities not to take offense at slang or sayings that may have a double meaning. Many people are not from the south.
