| White Professor Fired From Black College Gets $4.9 Million |
| 2017-06-13 |
| h/t Instapundit A Missouri appeals court upheld a $4.85 million racial discrimination award to a white teacher who was fired from Harris-Stowe State University, an historically black college. A trial jury awarded Elizabeth Wilkins $1.35 million in compensatory damages and $3.5 million in punitive damages on her claim that she was fired in favor of less senior black teachers. She also claimed Dr. Latisha Smith, the temporary co-chair for Harris-Stowe’s Teacher Education Department, repeatedly proclaimed her belief in "black power" in emails. Harris-Stowe’s defense was crippled by the fact that it deleted emails in Smith’s account, in violation of a court order. And here I thought that only white males can be discriminatory. |
