A former employee of Duke University is suing the college because he says he was fired after reporting discriminatory and racist comments made by his supervisor, according to a lawsuit.
In his lawsuit filed May 5 in U.S. District Court in North Carolina, Matthew Freetage described how university employees repeatedly made racist remarks and retaliated against him and other staff members who reported these instances.
A spokesperson from the Duke University Health System in Raleigh told McClatchy News on May 6 that they had no comment on active litigation.
