This epic tale from WaPo, leaves one with that question.
“HRC underpaid David, and then terminated him, because he is Black,” David’s lawyers wrote in the complaint, which was filed in federal court in New York.
David claims that board members told him that he was initially paid less because he is Black.... recounts being told by a senior HRC executive that his public support for racial justice risked alienating White donors and specifically “White gay men.”
...simmering frustrations at HRC and within the broader liberal activist community about accusations within their ranks of overt and implicit workplace discrimination and bias.
David was hired as the first Black head of the HRC at a time when the organization was dealing with multiple controversies about its handling of racial issues."
Now.....let me get this straight:
The hired him because he's black....then they paid him less because he's black....then they told him they hired him because he's black.....then they told him they're paying him less because he's black....then they told him that he's fired because he's black.
And he was encouraged to stop mentioning his race.
Everyone in this tale of woe is a Liberal and a Democrat.
Seems we've entered into the circular firing-squad phase (pun intended) of Leftist politics.
