Grape Soda,
I am sure I speak for most the people on this board who feel violated that one of our own has been subjected to numerous micro aggressions and made to feel frustrated and unsafe by an intolerant and racist colleague. Next time you might want to prepare a list of your triggers and any other language or behaviors which make you feel unsafe and threatened. Make sure all potentially threatening people are given this list a few days before your meeting. Also perhaps you could designate a safe zone somewhere at your house or whatever location you use. Make sure it is clearly marked with appropriate signage. Also there are some hotlines you can call if you are made to feel this way just in case you are economically oppressed and cannot afford an on-call crisis counselor.
