    This is a form of blushing. I looked up the definition and found this: ‘A reddening of the face, especially from modesty, embarrassment or shame.’ This would describe it perfectly. I would think that the people who blush in corporate circles might feel the need to be politically correct and afraid of saying something that would bring attention to the differences in black and white or offend someone of color.

    I have never heard of such a thing! I am very Irish and my husband (whom I do not get along with all the time but love very much) is very Italian! Hating someone because of their race, religion, or their ethnic background makes no sense to me at all and is a waste of time! I think people hate because we fear what we do not know or understand. When it comes down to it we are basically all the same.
