A Black employee at a Chick-fil-A franchise in Idaho says he endured more than a half-year of racist abuse from coworkers who, among other things, called him the “n-word,” referred to him as an “ape,” a “monkey” and threatened to cage him like an animal, according to a harrowing discrimination lawsuit obtained by The Independent.
“Of course he works at Chick-fil-A; he’s Black, so he loves chicken,” one of Thomas Wade’s colleagues allegedly said as he stood by in shock.
