A Black man has filed an employment discrimination lawsuit against a hotel in Detroit, Michigan, alleging the hotel only offered him a job interview after he changed the name on his resume, according to a copy of the lawsuit obtained by CNN.
Dwight Jackson filed the lawsuit against the Shinola Hotel on July 3, alleging he was denied a job when he applied as “Dwight Jackson,” but later offered an interview when he changed his name to “John Jebrowski.”
The lawsuit alleges Jackson was denied a job in “violation of Michigan Elliott Larsen Civil Rights Act.”
“I lied for brevity why is everyone mad at me” lmao
Not meticulously including every minute detail is not lying. Call it a lie by omission if you want to, but you and everyone else here so far has completely missed the point.
If I knew my original point was going to be ignored and everyone was going to swoop down on this one detail which was not even relevant to the point I was making, I would have used a completely different example altogether.
I may not have been specific enough for you on my companies hiring practices, but you have completely ignored my point and everyone here picking apart the sign on the door has strawmaned my point so hard that I haven’t once yet engaged with someone on the original point.
“my bad. yeah, i misspoke. I’ll edit my original comment to be more clear”
