WE FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS

Federal law prohibits any type of discrimination based on a person's race. Racial discrimination in the workplace occurs when a current employee, or an applicant for a job, is treated unfavorably because of their race. Employees or applicants may also experience race discrimination because of a relationship they have with a person of a different race. It is also possible for a person to racially discriminate against someone of their own race.  Racial discrimination is essentially any adverse policy, action, decision, or even expression that is based on a person’s immutable characteristics. Keep in mind, however, that racial discrimination and color discrimination are not interchangeable. Color discrimination occurs when adversity is based on a person’s pigmentation, complexion, skin tone, and so forth; racial discrimination, on the other hand, generally involves stereotyping, prejudice and bias.

Some specific examples of racial discrimination can include:
A person of a certain ethnicity is pulled over while in their vehicle based solely on the color of their skin

A police officer pulls over a driver in their vehicle based solely on their belief that the individual does not belong in a certain area of town


A police officer pulls over a driver while in their vehicle based strictly on the belief that the person is not the rightful owner of the vehicle


Although you reasonably demonstrated satisfactory qualifications and experience for a job, the employer didn’t hire you because his/her clients don’t like working with Hispanics.

where Mexican-Americans were arrested by park rangers for swimming after hours, while non-Hispanic persons were not, the court found adequate evidence of a discriminatory purpose because one of the park rangers had allegedly referred to “Mexicans” in a derogatory tone.

You found out that your white co-workers of equal level and seniority get paid more and receive more benefits.
You are constantly harassed for being Chinese, and it continues even after you voice your displeasure and discomfort.

Racial discrimination can take many more forms. Most often, you can notice racial discrimination in the hiring, firing, and promotions process; in the terms and conditions of employment; as harassment or retaliation; or if the workplace is segregated and classified based on color or race.

Employer Retaliation

You might have a case for retaliation if you:
Took time off under the Family and Medical Leave Act
Filed a Worker’s Compensation claim
“Blew the whistle” by reporting something illegal you knew about or saw happening
Refused to do something illegal that you were asked to do by a boss or co-worker
Complained to your employer about discrimination, even if you weren’t the person being discriminated against
Reported your boss for discriminatory or illegal activity

If you fit either of these two categories, you may have a valid claim against your employer.

Racial Discrimination and You
Racial discrimination occurs when you are treated unfavorably due to your race, personal characteristics associated with race, or your personal relationship or affiliation with someone of a particular race. While the law has technically forbidden practices and behaviors in the work place that are discriminatory or favorable to a particular race, the reality in many work places is quite different. Racism may be subtle or overt and, in the work place, can be expressed in the following ways:

Ethnic jokes, slurs, offensive comments due to race
Implementing a policy for promotion based on race
Refusing employment to individuals based on race, ethnic background, or national origin
Excluding individuals of a particular race, ethnic background, or national origin from management positions.

Your right to fair treatment is important. No one should take away your right to work in a safe environment free from all forms of harassment. If your employer failed to stop discrimination or harassment at your job, you might have the basis for a discrimination complaint or lawsuit.

What actions constitute racial discrimination??

What Is Racial Profiling?

Racial profiling, also called ethnic profiling, is a discriminatory practice by law enforcement officials. In racial profiling, law enforcement officials target individuals as suspects in a crime based on the individual’s race, ethnicity, religion, or national origin, according to the American Civil Liberties Union. For example, a police department might use race to determine who to stop for minor traffic offenses or jaywalking. Racial profiling is at play when immigration enforcement officials target Asian, Middle Eastern, or Muslim immigrants for detention without any evidence that these individuals have committed crimes.

Hiring An Experienced Civil Rights Attorney

It is important to conduct ample research when seeking a civil rights attorney. If you are seeking to sue someone for racial discrimination, you will ideally want to hire a lawyer who has extensive experience representing plaintiffs in these types of cases. It is also a good idea to hire an attorney who is highly knowledgeable about both federal laws and your state’s laws regarding discrimination. Do not simply settle for the lawyer who charges the lowest rate: this person may not necessarily be the best counsel to represent you. If you have experienced racial discrimination where you work, you know you need to stand up against it. But you do not need to fight it alone. You fight much more effectively when you have an experienced employee rights lawyer at your side.

Review Your Case
If you believe you’ve been unfairly treated and/or harassed at work due to your race or ethnicity, you have the right to file a legal discrimination claim. This occurs in two main steps:

Report the conduct. It is particularly important that you report the unlawful conduct to the appropriate persons (usually a supervisor, manager or human resources). Your employer must know or have reason to know about the unlawful treatment in order to be legally responsible for a co-worker or customer’s conduct.

Keep records. As soon as you experience discrimination, start writing down exactly what happened in a notebook that you keep at home. Write down the dates, places, times, witnesses and what happened. Keep copies of your performance evaluations and any emails or letters documenting the quality of your work.

Contact an experienced employee rights attorney. It is better to contact a seasoned attorney sooner rather than later. If our firm is retained early enough, we may be able to convince your employer to intervene on your behalf. We can also help you identify if you have an actionable claim and pursue justice on your behalf.


Gathering evidence of racial discrimination. This is one of the most difficult parts of a discrimination claim, as it can be unclear whether or not race was a true motivating factor in someone’s actions. For example, a potential applicant may be rejected due to race, but the employer could argue it was due to their qualifications. In this case, it is best to record any and all actions that could be interpreted as racial discrimination or comparative treatment – in which you are clearly being treated differently than other employees. A great resource to tap is your coworkers to see if they have similar experiences. A witness statement from one of them could be invaluable to your discrimination claim.

Filing a claim of racial discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The EEOC is the government entity that handles any claims of discrimination in the workplace and could go a long way in helping you recover any damages as a result of racial discrimination. You have 300 days from the date of the incident to file a claim, and you must do so by mail or in person.

If you have been discriminated against under Title VII, you may be entitled to reinstatement in your job, back pay and front pay for lost wages, punitive damages, legal fees, and other forms of compensation.
