Sounds to me like maybe the first mistake you made was letting the other person trick you into believing it was a racist issue. Some people will take advantage of that on the job, it can be used as a poor excuse when they are not performing at their peek. I've seen this at my job before, one black woman kept showing up late for work so management confronted her, she said something like " You don't confront white people when they are late so why are you confronting me" It turned into this huge racial deal and made the manager quit his job after 5 years of working there. Watch out though, especially if the person doesn't like you because there are cruel people out there that will use the whole racism thing against you to their fullest. Good Luck.
