A Black employee at a Tyson Foods plant in Virginia claims he was subjected to racial discrimination so horrific, the 62-year-old mechanic “lived in fear of leaving work each day, fearing [he] would be followed and killed” by his white colleagues, according to court documents reviewed by The Independent.
In a federal civil rights lawsuit filed Monday, Alvin Clark – the only Black worker on his team – says the bigotry eventually got so bad, he began staying in area hotels rather than his own home, “so that he was not located by Tyson employees and murdered.”
