The California law firm of Stephen Danz & Associates posted this interesting article about alleged race discrimination at Comcast….
… their attorneys reported a race bias and discrimination lawsuit brought last week by an African American former Comcast employee. Comcast is an American multinational mass media company and is the largest broadcasting and largest cable company in the world by revenue. The former employee worked in Comcast’s customer service center who alleged the company discriminated against black male employees and allowed assaults in the workplace by his female supervisors to go unchecked. The Plaintiff, Wilber Spencer Jr. worked for Comcast for over 10 years and argued that he and other black male workers were never promoted, rarely received advances, and were always supervised by white individuals. However, those who were actually promoted were white. After he complained about race discrimination in the workplace, he started receiving bad marks in reviews concerning his attitude. In addition, even though he repeatedly complained about racial discrimination, his pleas went unanswered. Then, after his most recent complaint on March 27, 2015, he was fired for hanging up on a customer. He believes that this was done as a pretext (or a false reason meant to cover the real illegal reason). See the firms dedicated race discrimination page here.
