Jackson Meets With Toledo GM Workers About Ongoing Racial Harassment

twitter.com

The Reverend Jesse Jackson is promising to work on a solution to racial harassment incidents at the General Motors powertrain plant in Toledo.  

The civil rights leader met yesterday with employees who claim they've been subjected to racist graffiti, nooses and other acts of bullying. 

Nine workers have filed a lawsuit against the automaker, claiming it has done nothing to stop the harassment. GM says it has taken steps to address the issue. 

 

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
