Kate, a district court clerk, is working
in the front office of the clerks office and overhears
her coworker Janet at the counter having an exchange
with a pro se litigant who appears Native American.
The man is having some trouble understanding a form
he has been given to complete. Kate observes that Janet
is growing increasingly impatient and is giving shorter
and shorter answers. Finally the man leaves, and Kate
hears Janet mutter under her breath, "Stupid Redskin."
