Customer (eyeing our We Need Diverse Books display): That's terrible. Really really awful.

Me: What?

Customer: That display. It's so mainstream. I just can't believe it.

Me: Well, there are a lot of people--minorities, women, people with disabilities--that recognize that they're underrepresented in literature. This is their way of speaking out against that injustice, and we're supportive of that.

Customer: Well..people with disabilities, maybe. But sooner or later if you give them what they want they're going to take over.

Me: . . .

Customer: I won't be shopping here again.

Me: *silently hands her the receipt*
