IN CONCLUSION,
Ashley is racist.
While there are arguably other members of the crew who have their biases against one another, Ashley outshines them all.
... Did you talk to your XO, at all?
Ashley's not a racist. A racist would usually maintain his prejudice, in spite of the overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Her prejudice, if you would even go so far as to call it that, is fairly limited and overcome without great effort, allowing her to form bonds of camaraderie and friendship with the rest of the (alien) crew. Same goes for the XO, even though he starts of with a far more prejudiced predisposition.
Furthermore, she is slow to trust people -in general-, not just aliens. (Even though she does have a certain bias against them, which, again, she overcomes pretty swiftly.)
