A black man in Michigan is suing the brewing company he worked for, claiming he was called the N-word by co-workers, denied a promotion because of his race and ultimately fired when he told a manager he was going to human resources. - NBCBLK

According to an amended complaint in October 2018, Evans was hired at the Grand Rapids location in 2014 as a packaging machine operator. He later transferred to a Detroit location, where he was fired in June 2018.

At the Grand Rapids location, Evans' colleagues allegedly labeled an upstairs printer"white guy printer" and the one downstairs"black guy printer." In June 2018, Evans met with a supervisor and informed him of his plans to meet with human resources about the work environment and how he was treated. Days later, Evans was fired for"pretextual reasons."

NBCBLK And naturally you jump on and push another story that has no shred of evidence at all. You keep forgetting that more and more you have been wrong

NBCBLK HR don't give a damn about you. They help the company document why you deserved to be fired.

NBCBLK I am married to an Hispanic man and when he was slandered, denied promotion because of 'affirmative action' he didn't cry or whine or sue he went out and got a better job. Buck up buttercup. Y'all know it's just for the money. I live in Illinois where everyone gets 5 million.

NBCBLK Luckily there are no suspect statements made by the general manager during his deposition:👇🏼

NBCBLK There is no place for this type of behavior anywhere. But especially in the workplace, where someone is trying to provide, put food on the table and a roof over their head.

NBCBLK Thanks Jussiesmullet
