Link
He asked her to transfer the data to a new phone which is how she found the pictures. Not sure how the data transfer works, surely not go through this phone item by item and text it to this other phone...? If it is a more streamlined process than that, why was she digging through his stuff?
Dumb move on his part though, both is sending the pictures through a work phone and then giving this lady access.

Its the "Its Friday N***as!" image of an African kid dancing with a smile on his face.
That has been passed around my group emails and texts for years

If they were truly racist images sent over a phone, I'd fire his arse too.

If every person who has that same picture somewhere on their phone was sued for $100M, the world would go bankrupt

I have had that sent to me by black friends and have black friends in group emails that gave no fricks when white people have sent it FWIW
Its with an "as" not "ers" and the picture of that kid getting down with a dance move and a smile on his face is pretty funny.

Even if it didnt impact him doing his job in anyway? People shouldn't get fired from work for texts they send to friends on their personal time, unless its like child porn or "I'm going to blow up the office"

Seriously
One of the most popular memes I can think of.

Send that to my wife every Friday
And she works with a black girl who she also shares the image with. She gets a kick out of it.

Firing someone that possibly upset a large segment of customers and employees is not a bad thing. Someone being able to claim there is $100 million worth of damages from this is what's wrong with this country.

What is a truly racist image anyway, how about fire him for his politics being really extreme, or his religious views.
Ridiculous

Pretty sure strong safety is in the comments section

I have never understood why white men are so afraid of racial discrimination lawsuits. If you aren't doing anything wrong you have nothing to be afraid of. White males simply want to have their way in the companies without any accountability. You can't do this dirty type of sh!t. You can't. It's against policy. Why should white males be above the rules? I can't demean a muslim or a woman or an asian and get away with it. I would be fired. So I know not to do this. White males because of their cockiness and arrogance think they can get away with everything and that's why their companies get sued so often. They don't want to play by the rules and behave.

Company HAD to fire him over that after it went public (from lady) because of the social landscape of the country now and the threat of pissing off half their customer base.
The lady did not have to go public or sue him for $100 million. She clearly is the piece of shite here.

Well, when your business is a phone company, and you use said phone to send shite you shouldn't, I don't mind them getting canned in that instance.
I haven't seen the photo honestly, that's why I originally responded if it's truly racist.
