knock knock...you're a racist

so DS who is 9 and on a select basketball team is trying to find 'sponsors' who will pay 25 cents or more per shot he makes in his teams free throw a thon.  we let him knock on a few doors down the street and he came home looking all sad.  why?  well he knocked on a door and someone who was not the home owner answered (they were having a gathering) and the guy yelled in the house "some black kid is at the door"

it breaks my heart that DS had to hear that but DS, DH and I had a very good talk about it.  I know I cant protect him 24/7 from ignorance but I wish I could. 

I really wanted to go knock on the door so that same guy would have to yell inside "some angry white woman is at the door and she is calling me out as a racist"
