Former New York prosecutor turned author who dealt with the Central Park Five loses her book deal and is fired out the cannon at her organization.
Former New York state prosecutor finds herself off the speaking tours. Due to the outrage, Linda Fairstein had to step away from the limelight. With good reason. The former state prosecutor was responsible for sending the Central Park Five to the iron college.
Five teens were wrongfully accused of raping a white jogger. They each got time in the iron college before being set free on the grounds of misconduct and corruption within the New York Police Department.
Donald J. Trump called the Central Park Five, scum and hope they had gotten the DEATH card for the actions they were wrongfully accused of.
The teens said their confessions were coerced and their convictions were overturned in 2002.
Five teens were convicted of a crime they didn't even commit.
A convicted serial killed and rapist Matias Reyes confessed to the rape. He is currently serving a 45 years sentence. He said that acted alone in his criminal act.
There's a docu-series on Netflix called "When They See Us."
The movie was produced by Ava DuVerna and it's winning praise worldwide. It also sparked massive discussion to how the justice system failed people of color.
The movie featured convicted felon Felicity Huffman who is portrayed as Fairstein.
The City of New York settled with the men. Yusef Salaam, Kevin Richardson, Raymond Santana, Antron McCary and Kharey Wise each settled with the city.

Dutton cancelled her contract. Fairstein was also forced to resign from Safe Horizon, God's Love We Deliver, The Joyful Heart Foundation and Vassar College.
She had her lifetime achievement award recalled after the backlash.
To this day, Trump has never apologized for his comments. He continues to attack them and believes in his heart the men were guilty as sin.
John James wants another chance at it. Black Republican wants to run for the U.S. Senate again.
Black Republican hopes to unseat Sen. Gary Peters (D-MI).
In a state that Donald J. Trump carried in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, one Republican lost his first bid to unseat a Democrat. He tried to unseat Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) but failed at winning that bid.
Now John James, the far-right agitator is hoping the second time is the charm.
You notice that Fox News and the far-white are calling this guy a "star."
Great another token.
This coonservative appears only on Fox News and no other outlet. He hopes that his skills a pragmatic speaker and African American business owner could court Blacks who are disgruntled with the Democratic Party.
Given that he could be the fourth African American to be seated in the U.S. Senate, Democrats are wasting no time allowing this clown to gain momentum. Given that Trump carried Michigan by three points, that would put Peters as LEAN DEMOCRAT currently. If the election was held today, Peters would clobber this guy. But given that James is Black, he will try his best to use every dirty tactic to make Blacks believe he's their savior.
Sen. Gary Peters is preparing for the far-right and it's lunatic candidate John James.
On Trump's favorite cable news show, Fox & Friends, James said that he filed the paperwork to run for the seat.
"I would like to announce that I am running for U.S. Senate after careful deliberation and thoughtful prayer," said James. "I believe this the time, again, is to serve."
James garnered attention after he ran against Stabenow. The other person who thought about running was Robert J. Ritchie, Sr., aka Kid Rock. The entertainer considered running for the seat but decided to be more of a sideline supporter of the Republican nominee.
James hopes this time he could win. Now that Trump is on the ballot in 2020, the Republican believes he's got the feeling. Trump is concerned that James running will energize Democrats and hurt the re-election chances the state.
The only Republicans in modern times to win Michigan were Donald J. Trump, George H.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan. That's just going back at least 40 years or so.
Two sexual predators are off the street. One targeted two gay men and a transgender woman. The other killed three women who were walking the stroll.
Detroit Metro Police have a person of interest in the murder of three women on the east side. This was an alleged homeless man who targeted women who were prostitutes. There was another man who may have attacked and killed two gay men and a transgender woman over the Memorial Day weekend.
These sexual predators killed for a thrill.
The chief of Metro Police, James Craig believes the killing of these women were the makings of a serial killer. The law determined that two women, a white woman and Black woman were killed by sexual predator. The third died of an overdose but had blunt force trauma injuries.
The victims were found in vacant buildings. The chief believes that there could be more victims.
The sexual predator is in his 30s and frequents the east end. Police released two photos of the killer and they've received tips. He was taken into custody on Friday. No charges were filed yet.
Two of the victims were identified. Nancy Harrison and Trevesene Ellis were the victims who were found in vacant properties. The other woman who was not identified as of yet.
Mike Duggan, the mayor of Detroit said that it could take weeks to search properties for other victims. He said that the city is planning on demolishing vacant structures and hope that these incidents stopped at three.
Two of the victims were identified by the Detroit Metro Police. They were victims of a serial killer.
The other killer had anti-LGBTQ hatred or a lust for them.
The sexual predator is an 18-year old man who was accused of murdering three people. Two were gay men and one was transgender. The motive could be a hate crime.
The victims were Alunte Davis, Timothy Blancher and Paris Cameron. They were targeted by the sexual predator.
This was the third transgender woman who was killed in a period. There were five transwomen of color killed because of some motivated violence. Most of the victims were prostitutes or victims of unfortunate circumstances.
Two gay men and a transgender woman were victims of a hate crime.
Women of color are under attack. Even women who run the streets are being attacked by sexual predators. Prostitution is the oldest profession. It is illegal in the United States to engage in the sexual activity for monetary.
The suspects are innocent until guilty in a court of law. The individuals are facing murder charges. If convicted they could face the DEATH card in Michigan. They are assured LIFE and TIER status upon conviction.
It is considered taboo by those who clutch their pearls. It often leads to human trafficking, drug abuse, spread of sexual transmitted infections, domestic violence and gun crimes. Lawmakers want to criminalize those who engage in it.
The U.S. is the only country where "freedom" is just a ridiculous platitude. I'm all for legalizing marijuana, prostitution and online gambling.
Human nature is based on decisions. We all have choices. Why do we care so much about what two consenting adults do in the bedroom?
Why do we care about a person who lights up a joint in the public?
Why do we care how much a person spends online or in a gaming facility?
Trump attacks Pelosi while on foreign soil. The old fart says Pelosi is nervous.
Donald J. Trump once again labels an opponent a name and his minions of the far-white hook, line and sinker it. He called Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), "Nervous Nancy" in an attempt to bait her.
Yesterday in Normandy, France, Trump, Pelosi and other lawmakers honor the 75th Anniversary of D-Day. The imbecile went to the far-white cable network Fox News to complain about problems at home.
He insults his fellow Americans on foreign soil and the host Laura Ingraham eggs him on.
It was told that Trump delayed the ceremony to do that ridiculous taping with that far-white agitator.
Sitting in front of a cemetery of American war dead. Trump argued that Pelosi's leadership and the Democratic Party's relentless investigations are a disaster. He decided to label her the name.
"Nancy Pelosi, I call her Nervous Nancy, Nancy Pelosi doesn't talk about it. Nancy Pelosi is a disaster, OK?" Trump said to Ingraham during that taping. "She's a disaster. Let her do what she wants, you know what? I think they're in big trouble?"
Somehow, they'll have to cross paths.
Pelosi refused to comment on Trump's remarks. She said that she rather not insult him on foreign soil.
Yeah, Pelosi sucks as the House Speaker. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) warned Pelosi. They told her and Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD) to get the ball rolling on impeaching this motherfucker.
Prepare for more government shutdowns.
Pelosi wanted to play nice. She ended up once again becoming a toxic figure. The far-white is often singling her out. They use her in memes and Trump already been fed Fox News bullshit.
She should never have been the House Speaker. We needed a leader who ain't tainted with the lobbyists and foreign influence. She attacked Omar for speaking out against the Israeli influence. She sided with Republicans on the shooting of Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA). She should have called out Republicans for being bigots.
Democrats don't want to work with Trump. We voted for Democrats to establish balance for Trump.
Unfortunately, the corporate Democrats like Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi could end up giving Trump his second term. We need to restructure the policies. I know I want to see his ass impeached but I rather have my community fixed up after a natural disaster. I rather see more jobs coming to my community than subpoenas on his tax returns.
Democrats better focus on the economy and natural disasters. They seem to do better on handling natural disasters and the economy. They might want to at least force Republicans to acknowledge they have failed in infrastructure.
They might want to go after that turtle in the Senate.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is the most hated politician in the country. He has stalled legislation. He was responsible for Barack Obama not getting his third Supreme Court nominee. He and Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) can't control their own members. Their own members have delayed bills on disaster relief. They have delayed policies to help many Americans who need job assistance. The states with natural disasters are ran by Republicans. See how that's working out for you!
The release of the jobs report is not good. It was way below expectations.
The unemployment rate remains at 3.6%.
The U.S. economy added only 75,000 jobs in May. That means less than 100,000 jobs were spread across the 50 states, the District of Columbia and the five U.S. territories. The population of 336.9 million Americans (U.S. nationals).
The report is making the notion that our economy is slowing down. That means that jobs aren't hiring or they're fazing out positions in industries that Americans once held.
Economists were expecting 185,000 jobs. This fell very short of the anticipated number.
Wage growth also decelerated slightly, with average hourly earnings rising 3.1% from a year earlier, down from a 3.2% rate a month earlier.
Things are getting worse. Donald J. Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on Mexican products if they don't curb immigrants from coming to the border. He also has engaged in a trade war with the European Union and China. Each of these trade wars caused a global ripple effect.
On Monday, if the U.S. enables the tariffs on Mexico, American consumers will pay more for fruit, alcohol, peanuts, almonds and wine.
Why does it feel like it's not an improving economy?
First things first, the cost of living has not changed.
The average wage for most Americans aren't matching the cost of gasoline, food and rent. They are not matching overall satisfaction.
Many economists are saying that a recession is coming.
Those die-hard Trump supporters will say that his leadership is successful. All the while, they find that their average wages are stalling. Many of these Trump supporters probably lost their jobs. Some are probably losing their homes due to flooding, wildfires and foreclosure.
Food prices, energy prices, rent, city services and college education have risen over the past year.
Real Reason To Why Unemployment Rate Stays The Way It Is!
There are 104 million active body people not working in the United States. The examples of why they're not working.
1. DEAD 2. BORN 3. IN PRISON 4. IN PRIMARY SCHOOL 5. IN MIDDLE SCHOOL 6. IN HIGH SCHOOL 7. IN COLLEGE NOT LOOKING 8. VOLUNTEER 9. DISABLED 10. STAY AT HOME PARENT 11. RETIRED 12. QUIT ON THEIR OWN 13. NOT HIRING QUALIFIED 14. NATURAL DISASTERS 15. ACTIVE MILITARY 16. NOT HIRING TOO QUALIFIED 17. LAID OFF 18. FIRED FROM THE JOB 19. DESTRUCTION TO FACILITY 20. OUTSOURCING 21. IMMIGRANTS TOO AFRAID OF BEING DETAINED BY I.C.E. 22. SHAMED BY SOCIAL MEDIA
Let me remind you, that Trump and Republicans believe austerity is the key to a strong economy and job market. The Republicans are not in control of the House of Representatives. The Democrats now control the House and will push for an agenda that Trump will likely oppose. Republicans in the Senate will continue to pass ridiculous laws that hurt the working class and middle class. They are already streamlining federal judges that could rollback years of progress.
The inept Senate leadership of Mitch McConnell is being ignored. He is leading our country into the abyss. Trump and Republicans believe that trickle down economics (i.e. free market capitalism) is helping Americans. Really, it's making people work harder and we're not seeing the benefits of it.
We are not happy with the incentives companies provide.
With them trying to dismantle the Affordable Care Act, many of Trump's die hard supporters are going to get a culture shock when they find out their health coverage from their employer terminated it because they are no longer forced to provide it. Or they'll keep hours lower to keep people from obtaining health insurance.
The Jobs and Tax Cut Act has added trillions of dollars of debt to the economy. The results of the tax cuts haven't produced the stability. It's still considered a very unpopular law.
Trump is destroying the economy. I won't say anything positive about him. Regardless of what happens, this is short-term success.
Mr Superboy's excellent video on the Central Park Five
I was just 18 years old when this happened. The 1980s/early nineties were a period of racial polarization. Bush Sr. pushed the Willie Horton ad to the public, then he called the Civil Rights bill as "a quota bill". Next, the Bensonhurst murder where Yusef Hawkins was shot because racists thought he was seeing a white girl, Charles Stuart lied to the public regarding the murder of his wife. That coward got so many innocent Black men abused and railroaded by the Boston police, notorious for its racism. When his story didn't add up and his own brother was about to turn him in for the murder of his wife, he cowardly took his life. WS republican David Duke was flexing his political might in Louisiana. There was a war against Black men in America. We need to take this seriously.
The media made a big deal out of the boys who were falsely accused of rape, while the actual guy by the name of Mathias Reyes was out there serially raping and murdering women during this time. Also, there was a Black woman who was raped, beaten, thrown into the elevator shaft to be left for dead in Harlem. No persons of interest and almost no media coverage whatsoever. We are conditioned to value certain races of women, while disregarding the lives of Black and brown women as victims.
See the continuation of the stories of the now-exonerated men known as the Central Park 5: Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise. When They See Us is based on a true story that gripped the country in 1989. The four part limited series by Ava DuVernay chronicles the notorious case of five teenagers of color, labeled the Central Park Five, who were convicted of a rape they did not commit. Watch their rise to triumph on May 31st, only on Netflix.
Kyle Lowry of the Toronto Raptors was shoved by privileged white billionaire. The billionaire wasn't charged with a crime.
If this was a Black man shoving a white person, odds on favorite, the Black man would have been arrested on sight.
Toronto Raptors and the Golden State Warriors are in the NBA Finals. The Warriors are hoping to secure a fifth championship. The Raptors are hoping to score their first title in the franchise history.
So far, the Raptors haven't went down like punks, yet. They are up in the series 2 games to 1.
The Warriors are without their top player Kevin Durant and it's been seen throughout the game.
Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Dreymond Green need that extra arm of support in order to finish the series. But given that the Splash Bros are struggling through the series, T-DOT is lit.
The largest city in Canada is hoping to make a mark on NBA. The Eastern Conference Champions have been getting very good these last four years. Matter of fact, they gave the Cleveland Cavaliers the runs during the King James time.
Enter point guard and top shooter Kyle Lowry. The Toronto Raptors have Lowry, Jeremy Lin, Leonard Kawhi and Malcolm Miller. They are on pace to winning the series if Game 4 is in their favor.
Tonight's game is on ABC and the Raptors and Warriors will duke it out.
One person who will not have an opportunity to watch is Mark Stevens. This is a billioniare who is minority owner and investor for the Warriors. He is the co-owner of Sequoia Capital in Menlo Park.
He was ejected from Oracle Arena after he verbally assaulted and initiated a physical altercation with Lowry. He was banned from the finals and had a year long ban from the NBA. He also had to shelve out $500,000 for the incident.
No arrests were made during the altercation.
Lowry had did his presser and had to address this. He also had to tell the public that his sons have to face a reality where folks like this exist. The incident made people of color think.
Had it been the other way around, Lowry would have been suspended and sacked from the Raptors.
He would have been arrested and criminally charged. He would have been fined by the California courts and NBA for the whole encounter. He would be forever known like Ron Artest (aka Metta World Peace) who went into the stands to confront a white guy who threw a drink at him.
This type of behavior is typical of white people and Black athletes. They instigate fights with the players and then cry when they get a karma moment.
Lowry is above the fray. Thankfully. He could have served that asshole a hot plate.
The fan who shoved Lowry in Game 3 was a venture capitalist. A privileged white man who felt the need to put his hands on a Black man. Mind you, he's the guy who buys companies piles on debt and forces the company to go out business when they can't pay the debt.
Man takes a bath inside a fast food restaurant sink. He caused great concern among folks who work in the fast food industry. What folks do for click bait!
From folks deliberately entering wild animal cages to people doing stupid things while around food, Journal de la Reyna introduces another edition of "You Can't Fix Stupid."
These stories are often posted by me to detail what folks do when they using dumb judgment in handling food, animals and society in general.
Most of the stupid stories involve folks working at fast food restaurants doing something that could contaminate food or cause harm to the company they've worked for.
So if you're employed in fast food or at a zoo, please exercise judgment before doing something.
You could lose your job, your reputation or your life.
Okay, Wendy's Restaurants are doing damage control after one of its employees at a Florida store was caught on camera taking a bath inside on of the sinks they use to clean utensils and prepare food.
Co-workers egged him on and record the encounter. The worker stripped down to his shorts and entered an industrial sized sink and decided to take a bath. With some saying that he should "wash his armpits."
He and his co-workers posted this shit on social media and it went viral. As soon as Wendy's got word of the stunt, they immediately fired all of those involved out the cannon.
The Florida Department of Health and Milton city inspector had to shut the business down. They ordered an advance sanitizing of the restaurant, retraining managers, cashiers and food preps.
They had to immediately have a restructuring of the facility and order all Wendy's Restaurants to do an evaluation of employees behavior during down time.
They will send the ones involved the bill if the city and state decides to fine the store.
This is why it's greatly important to use judgement. The folks who told the man to do this aren't going to find difficulty finding jobs. This person will find himself on the outside when it comes to employment.
All because he wanted to be funny. If he wanted to be a comedian, he should have saved his money and head to The Groundlings, Second City or Upright Citizens Brigade.
Oh by the way, here's many other incidents that involve idiots taking baths in restaurants sinks.
The most famous one is that idiot from Xenia, Ohio who took a bath in a Burger King sink.
Then the three women from Anderson, California who took a bath in a KFC sink.
Racist teacher found herself out of the classroom after she tweeted to Trump she would personally call ICE to report students in her classroom here illegally.
Texas teacher was fired out the cannon on Tuesday after she thought she was tweeting Donald J. Trump privately. The idiot failed to realize that what she posted on social media is traceable and folks who saw that immediately contacted her employer.
Georgia Clark doesn't know how to use Twitter. If she had done so, she would have tried to at least direct message him instead of commenting on his tweet.
The teacher said that Trump should round up the illegal immigrants because they're taking over her school.
She worked as an English teacher at Carter-Riverside High School in Fort Worth.
In a series of tweets, the idiot pleaded to Trump to do something about the number of "illegal immigrants from Mexico" at her school.
She wrote in May, "Mr. President, Fort Worth Independent School District is loaded with illegal students from Mexico. I don't know what to do. Anything you can do to remove the illegals from Fort Worth would be greatly appreciated. Carter-Riverside High School has been taken over by them. Mr. President, I asked for your assistance in reporting illegal immigrants in the FWISD public school system and what I received was an alarming tweet from someone identifying himself as one of your assistants followed by a second tweet from the same person. I need protection from recrimination should I report it to the authorities but I do not know where to turn. I have contacted the Texas Education Agency and then my teacher's association. Texas will not protect whistle blowers. The Mexicans refuse to honor our flag. With the f-word used in the dot com, I promptly deleted both tweets and sent a message to Twitter about it. I really do need a contact here in Fort Worth who should be actively investigating and removing the illegals that are in [the] public school system. Drug dealers are on our campus and nothing was done to them when the drug dogs found the evidence. My phone number is ---------- and my cell phone is ---------. Georgia Clark is my real name. Thank you."
Forth Worth schools have a 63% Hispanic enrollment.
The now deleted Twitter page was littered with racist memes and hateful content. The folks who screenshot her profile and tweets gathered them and sent them to her employers.
The FWISD decided to place her on leave and then after a vote they decided to cannon fire her.
The teacher claims that she thought her tweets were private. She vows to appeal the decision.
"Once the tweets came to light, so, too, did other allegations, and it was my professional judgement that it was in the best interest of the district," said FWISD superintendent Kent P. Scribner.
Clark was with the district for over 20 years.
Scribner added, "Public schools must provide education for children, regardless of their immigration status. They are not allowed to ask about a student's immigration status or report them or their families."
Fort Worth Independent School District voted to terminate a racist in the classroom.
Clark was in trouble back some time ago. She insulted a student when she asked for the student to "show me your papers that are saying you are legal."
In 2013, she allegedly kicked a student and in 2013 she was accused of referring to a group of students as "little Mexico" and calling another student, "white bread."
Is this woman your teacher?
And if so, why hasn't she been reprimanded or terminated the first time?
Did the principal or staffers condone this behavior?
Fox News began in 1997. So I am guessing for 20 years she heard the bullshit from the agitators of that network. The stuff she's spoke sounds so much like Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham and Sean "Softball" Hannity brainwashing. I guess now she will have a lot of time watching the tube. Because of her viewing of Fox News and reading off far-white websites, she let her opinion become her undoing.
She can be a bigot all she wants. But in the classroom and on social media, she should hold a standard. But then again, white nationalists are being employed as police officers, military officers, loan officers, teachers and property owners.
Tracy Morgan's new ride was damaged by a motorist. Morgan escaped death yet again. Years ago, he was severely injured by a reckless truck driver.
Almost five years, entertainer Tracy Morgan nearly was killed in a bad accident on the New Jersey Turnpike. A Walmart truck driver who was asleep at the wheel drove right into a construction zone crashing into a vehicle with Morgan and a few other entertainers.
One of the entertainers, Jimmy Mack (James McNair) was killed. Morgan was severely injured.
Morgan had to have numerous surgeries and replacements. He ended up taking a two year hiatus from the comedy. But in 2016, he made a return to the entertainment industry and has been riding high since.
Morgan has always counted his blessings since the accident. And one would see that history would never repeat itself.
Take this week.
Tracy Morgan was riding in his $2 million Bugatti when a New Jersey woman crashed into his vehicle.
The woman who drove the vehicle now identified as Joycelyn Madulid pulled in front of the Bugatti and dented it heavily. It caused Morgan to jump out the car and give the woman a verbal lashing.
The Bugatti Veyron was just purchased by the entertainer. Only 15 minutes later, he had the fender bender. He immediately exited the vehicle and pounded on the woman's vehicle and said, "Bitch get out fuck out the car!"
The woman was traumatized by the incident. She immediately apologized for the vehicle damage.
The New York Police Department is investigating the incident.
Video blogger feud with far-white agitator has sparked discussion over YouTube airing extremism.
YouTube sucks. I don't hardly do videos on the platform because they demonetized my videos for some dumb reason. I guess I'm not popular enough. Oh, well.
Two agitators are feuding with one another over content. But who's taking the fall?
Carlos Maza watches far-white agitators on Fox News, social media and in Washington. He is a reporter for Vox Media and does reporting for his docu-series Strikethrough.
His videos are quite popular and I do often put them on this blog.
He is calling out YouTube and social media for allowing a far-white agitator continue to reign on their platforms. He and this agitator are engaged in a major feud.
Maza is openly gay is telling YouTube that BlazeTV host Steven Crowder is violating the rules and it's time to pull the plug on him.
So, I have pretty thick skin when it comes to online harassment, but something has been really bothering me.
Crowder is a Canadian-American actor, blogger and comedian who often does prank videos and ambush journalism. He was the guy who was engaged in an altercation with a Michigan man who was fighting against former governor Rick Snyder's union busting law.
This feud has been going on for a couple of years. Maza has made a compilation of Crowder's greatest hits and it's took off.
BlazeTV host is losing his revenue on YouTube because of relentless feud with Vox host.
YouTube so far hasn't disabled Crowder but it took steps to demonetize his videos and remove content.
(1/4) Thanks again for taking the time to share all of this information with us. We take allegations of harassment very seriously–we know this is important and impacts a lot of people.
Crowder likened his remarks to jokes, calling them "harmless ribbing" in a response video earlier this week. Crowder also sells a T-shirt on his website, an image of which is also his featured Twitter banner photo, that features a homophobic slur with one letter omitted. Crowder supporters have since fashioned a version of the T-shirt specifically targeting Maza.
Crowder got a serving after he shoved a man to the ground in attempt to dehumanize union workers.
After days of silence, YouTube now says it doesn't think Crowder's homophobic and racist slurs, including Crowder calling Maza a "lispy queer" and a "gay Mexican," qualify as harassment. Notably, the company did not mention the phrase “hate speech,” indicating it does not seem to classify Crowder's homophobic mockery as such.
YouTube made sure to clarify in one final follow-up tweet that "even if a video remains on our site, it doesn't mean we endorse/support that viewpoint." The company says it's "still evaluating" Crowder's channel for other violations, although it's not clear what aspect of the investigation is still pending.
Texas Subway manager mocks Black teen applying for a job.
"I don't want those people in our store..." were the words of a now cannon fired manager of a Texas Subway restaurant. The manager text her employee the offensive text when a Black teen wanted to get a job at the fast food restaurant.
Katelyn Simmons was looking forward to getting a job at Subway after one of the employees referred her. The employee was one of her best friends and Katelyn thought it would be a good way to make a little extra money.
The manager who was named Monica got word of Katelyn applying and she quickly shot it down. "Oh no thanks. I don't want those people in our store, lol!"
Katelyn got word of it and told her mother. Her mother posted it on social media and it went viral overnight.
Timika Simmons posted the text message sent to Katelyn's friend and it went straight to Subway corporate offices. They immediately fired the manager out the cannon and thanked the employees for the tips.
This happened in Houston.
This wasn't the first or the last time things like this happened at Subway.
Besides the disgraced pitchman Jared Fogle, there were incidents where white people called the law on Black patrons visiting or ordering sandwiches that were overwhelming.
This is Donald J. Trump's Amerikkka folks.
Women of color are under attack. A young woman wanted a job and was turned down because she didn't look the part. Okay, we see you.....!
It's getting hot in here!
Here's more from Subway.... More racist managers and workers.
