A white teacher was awarded almost $5 million in a racial discrimination suit after being fired by administrators at the historically black college of Harris-Stowe State University who were intent on making the college "blacker."

Machine will be in this thread shortly to explain how this decision was wrong because it's not very hard being a white person in the U.S.

In other news, Missouri taxpayers have to cover a new, unforeseen $5MM tax shortfall.

How would your life had been harder if you were black or Latino? How would it have prevented you from achieving your goals in life?

Which would make it perfectly OK for discriminatory action to be taken against you because of your race, I guess.

While I'm in favor of any institution or business firing staff for any reason they want, I'm glad that the hypocrisy of this college is out in the open.

"Your honor, I plead with you to throw out this terrible claim of racism and discrimination against the good people of this university. As you can see, the plaintiff is white and therefore they cannot experience racism or discrimination, making their claim absurd from the start."

Harris-Stowe's defense was crippled by the fact that it deleted emails in Smith's account, in violation of a court order.

"During discovery, the trial court ordered the Board [of Regents] to preserve Dr. Smith's email account," Judge Kurt Odenwald wrote for the three-judge panel.

"In violation of the order, the Board deleted Dr. Smith's email account. Because of this violation, the trial court ruled, as a sanction, that the following allegations were deemed admitted: Dr. Smith's email account contained statements expressing her desire to make the Teacher Education Department 'blacker' and that she recommended terminating Wilkins's employment."


Total gem right there.
