Black Boeing employee sues company after finding noose at desk, says 'my work life is degrading'

A black employee at Boeing who says that he has found a noose hanging near his desk, signs near his workspace saying"n-----" and urine covering his desk on separate occasions says that his work life remains"degrading" even after he complained to management, he told ABC News.

In an emailed statement, a Boeing spokesperson wrote, that while Anthony"is a valued Boeing South Carolina teammate, there is no validity to his allegations." Instead of focusing on work, Anthony said,"I was thinking about, 'Who could do this? And why would they do this?' To anyone, no matter what hue or race they are. It was just degrading and it was demeaning. I don't know what their motive was, but I tell you right now, it still affects me to this day."

Then, after working in New Orleans in January and February 2019, Anthony said he returned to work in the South Carolina plant in March to find a noose above his desk.

Terrible😇what gives-🤷‍♀️They do excellent tours & seems so awesome...working there:..gotta check that out totally...not good

Jussie?

I would hope there were cameras to capture the culprit.

I know there are cameras all over that place. Should be hard to find out who the pisser is

soledadobrien I hope he takes them to the bank 🏦.

Racism?

Sorry but Jusset Smollet(who cares how he spells it) comes IMMEDIATELY to my mind. IngrahamAngle AnnCoulter nytimes SarahPalinUSA seanhannity GovMikeHuckabee KimFoxxforSA chicagotribune seattletimes BoeingAirplanes

Soft asd

Isn't it ironic/pathetic that people are now willing to believe the same company (Boeing), who knowingly withheld and ignored fatal errors on one their aircraft, that resulted in over 350 deaths in less than 6 months....All believe, that the BLACK man is lying⁉️🤔

Jusse Smollett much?

Welcome to Trump's MAGA world. Deplorable.

Oh we have a copycat Smollett

'Why'd you go to college, Donnie?' 'To avoid the riff raff.'

Did they try and steal his subway sammich? Sounds smollettish

Sounds like a hoax.

Another Smollett!!!

So now the company has to pay because co-workers are jerks. If you own a business, are in leadership at your corporation, let this be a lesson to ACT when your employees come to you about bad actors!!!

MAGA !!!

Megawatts55 Mfs...

no surprise. Trumpers think this is now acceptable, public behavior and their cult leader approves.

RESISTTHEBABYMURDERINGDEMS

soledadobrien Boeing, my workplace has camera's everywhere what about yours?

How much hate to you have to have inside you to put the time/effort into doing something like this. That’s terrifying. Such dangerous people among us 😳

simplyrebecca8 A-holes of America.

JoyAnnReid The karma from this is why that company will suffer greatly, just like certain car makers. Keep it up and see, Boeing is going through it already, be fair or be gone. 🤷🏾‍♂️

JoyAnnReid This world keeps getting worse

JoyAnnReid He forgot to mention he placed it there himself. . . .🙄

JoyAnnReid Fake news

soledadobrien He should also spray paint his car with nazi symbols and racist slurs.... that will really gain some attention.

So why is it the companys fault for a disrespectful action by someone unnamed? The frivaous lawsuits and news coverage of them only make more of this crap happen. Start to report important things and courts should start to fine lawyers who take on these stupid suits.

i bet there is security footage and Boeing will pull it out last minute and this will all go away

soledadobrien I started with EEOC..after consulting attorney..mediation worked..it was that lil black mailbox sambo..successful..hinthint

5.bucks says black employee did moose himself.

Jussies been looking for that

soledadobrien Fake hate crimes are on the rise now after Smollett got off.

Or the guy might be one of those people who take advantage of policies and laws in order to get money and more paid leave. This resulted to coworkers doing his job that resulted in them doing stupid things to make him quit. 1 possibly right here

False flag? Just asking.

TERRIBLE !!! 😥😠

Was bleach left too? hatehoaxes set the precedent to demand further investigation before these “narratives “ hit the news. Nooses is obviously a “trigger”.

How many of these have ended up as a hoax? MrAndyNgo

Sounds like a JusseSmollette moment

soledadobrien So that’s what they’ve been doing instead of making safe airplanes.

All the racists in the mentions hollering about Jussie smollett, OJ is back too. Get new material.

That's common in workplaces across America, especially after Trump illegally occupied the WH. Then you wonder why DeWayneCraddock lost his mind and killed his co-workers.

This type of cartoonish racism is not believable anymore now that the media has created an environment where scum like Jussie Smollett can so easily exploit America's racial tensions for personal gain and the hoaxes are so frequent.

soledadobrien It's toxic. Work racism, like any other type, is mentally and physically harmful.

I seen some them square salty baked ahh never mind. It’s a scam for money

soledadobrien That is just crazy. He should sue and the person should be at the least disciplined by Boeing.

soledadobrien South Carolona Nuff said

This racist tactic is unacceptable back woods low life illegal immoral and basic BS that needs to be outed then put 2 end! Enuff already we are better than this. We were already a greater nation b4 crazy came 2 town.

'Well, this just hurts the company, not the people who were racist.' - White Nationalist Trump Supporting racists. 'I'm OK with that.' - Rest of America.

Terrible thing to find at worksite but will certainly be questioned by Boeing! Did the worker place the noose at job site or did someone else? Likely be long battle with multi million settlement as this Canadian sees it!

I hope he took pictures & kept careful notes, perhaps had the urine analyzed for DNA.

Pretty sure this person was hesitant to report this problem as a result of the JussieSmollett debacle. Don't think Jussie thought things through.

Hoax?

Bet he's involved.

Appalling situation he was subjected to.

A black guy called me White trash at work and I didn’t sue anyone.

Was Jussie Smollett in the building recently

Probably put it there himself

Guess what, he faked it and they have it on video. Guy was drinking at work and even pissed himself at his desk. But ABC won't report that. FakeNews

🤔This reminds me of uhmmm what's his name? Thus dude errrrr...

These pipo are sick in their heads but fortunately for them being sick in their head is so normal that it is not frowned upon.

Using the word 'black' to desrcibe the man is itself racism.

Like most all of the 'hate crime' that happens these days, this is probably staged.

Not surprised. Most non-white people would choose not to have their families live in that area. By moving the 787 production to that area, Boeing effectively changed those jobs into employment for white people.

This noose sure makes it’s way around. Where’s Jussie?

Amazing how Boeing officials say he never reported any harassment yet had to replace his dest and chair, oved him to a building with no AC, but then fired someone for hanging the noose. All this but the claim the guy never complained. Smh. I hope the EEOC got involved.

Looking at some of the tweets on this thread, it’s disconcerting that some people do not take allegations of racial discrimination seriously. I’m sure there are many in Corporate America that feel the same when such complaints come to HR.

He will have to prove that the company condones that type of behavior, which they do not. We would have heard about it a long time ago if they did. Get back to work, make your money the old fashioned way, earn it!

It’s probably another fake racism story. Probably place by a black employee that’s pissed off.

planted by the 'black employee

Not surprised.

Boeing is reeling from the 737 max disaster, would it be a stretch to say that this employee orchestrated this for a payout?

Boeing not looking good these day's.

Jussie Smollett?

More Jussie inspired antics...

fakenews

I should be, but i am not.

Not surprised.

Must be a Democrat. Democrats are Racist Party. Fact check!

And this has all been verified BEFORE publishing these salacious claims given the history of liberal racist hoaxes? How many times does the media get to fall for these hoaxes before owning the damage to society you are doing?

Find out who did it, and give them an old fashioned West Texas ass whipping!

Jussie Smollett?

Timing? Interesting.,

Hurry up with the race baiting! The Democrats must have divisions before the 2020 election!

BoeingAirplanes I hope the employee bankrupts them Disgusting

I didnt know Jussie worked for Boeing.

Wouldn't it be funny if it turns out another black employee left the noose there?

MrFrenchBulldog What a disgrace Boeing get your house in order!

Probably fake racism placed by a black employee.

What year is this?

Maybe put it there himself

someone needs bias training ...

Did it to himself.

A J.S. style of extortion set-up ? Sorry , I smell a rat.

Everybody is looking for a handout these days. 🤦🏼‍♂️

If this happened it’s despicable. This also screams that he put it there himself.

newschannelnine Smells a little like a Justin Smollett situation.

newschannelnine Why does it matter that he’s black? Would any other race not sue?

Fake

Boeing can pound concrete. When Curtis Anthony complained about the racial harassment to management, they retaliated by putting him in a building with no air. Just sue them to the knees. I don’t want to hear their bullshyt about what’s not acceptable at their company. Fugg them!

'The Base.'

Some people can be so cruel & not even care that what they’re doing is so inhuman.

Time for an investigation, past victims have been the ones responsible in the end... let’s hope this in not the case here

Join the club buddy

Yeah right, pfftt. Jussie Smollett kind of set the stage for that. Don't believe him. Now since he pulled that prank, there's going to be all kinds of the same garbage.

Easy . Make sure you have facts...remember how stupid you looked falling for the the last time a black guy got attacked at Subway.

Will likely soon be reported to be a hoax and the man will be arrested for making a false claim and trying to extort the company.

in the world of realDonaldTrump bigotry and hate, everything is degrading

Smarties comments from folks. Y’all maybe never been to South Carolina?

He may have put it there himself?

Not surprised that they deny it. Supervisors are often part of the problem.

After Boeing leaves Seattle to avoid and break the unions moving south. The company forgotten how to make airplanes and anything else.

Good luck...

This is either a hoax or the work of a deranged psycho. Time will tell. People just don't do this kind of crap.

Jessie Smollett ll ?

Boeing shoud offer a $10,000 reward for the culprit. I can't imagine this is a common occurence. There's one sick cookie out there and Boeing certainly doesn't want him/her as an employee. But, maybe the person isn't employed by Boeing and snuck in and did it. WhiteSupremacy

This is fucked up

Let me guess. He works at the Charleston plant?

When did Jussie start working for Boeing?

This remind me of all the fake hate crimes...I think we should all wait for more details and investigations.

Sadly Jussie Smollett ruined it all for crying wolf and lying. I'm not ready to believe another just yet

I doubt that a lot of black people have worked there n there never been any problems

Somebody Smolletted him.

Another liberal money grab. disgusting,

I hope he wins big.

I hope he is wrong, that's not what should happen anymore. I also hope this is not a Jussie Smollett thing. That's also not what should happen anymore.

That South Carolina plant is a sh!tshow and will end up bankrupting Boeing.

Probably a hoax aiming to extort money.

No cameras?

So this is a true story?! tRump must go so his ignorant followers can go back in the caves

This need more than 2M likes and retweets

Uh oh another Jesse Smollet

Work is always degrading and tiresome and menial and feels pointless. That's why it's called work and not fun. The noose I can understand. But Boeing pays well. You could always feel that same way working at McDonald's lol.

He’s going to leave that company a millionaire 😱

degrading to say the least. that's outright threatening!
