Extra! Wal-Mart Settles w/Harrassed Black Worker
Issue: Wal-Mart settles harassment suit: Idaho store fired black worker for complaining about racial slurs, agency says/Spokesman-Review
More Info: Some of the racial graffiti included the phrases "white supremacy," "whites only" and "no niggers in Idaho," legal documents in the case show. The graffiti was in bathrooms and other areas. Woods said that at one point he had just finished cleaning a bathroom when a white associate tracked dirt into the bathroom and said something about getting the area dirty then making his "black ass" clean it up again.
Question: Are we North Idahoans fooling ourselves when we say -- as Reps. Bob Nonini, Phil Hart and Dick Harwood did recent debate about a human rights resolution -- that racism in the region ended with the closure of the Aryan Nations compound?
