A Penn State professor, Zack De Piero, is suing his former employer for allegedly fostering a racially hostile work environment which blasted White people as 'problematic.'
Some of the workshops included a presentation captioned"White Teachers are a Problem," according to the lawsuit.
De Piero continued,"I think there is almost a religious, cult-like environment where you had this Original Sin. In this case, I'm White. I need to repent for that sin. I need to keep going to these [trainings], keep doing the work… I think they were waging a psychological war campaign and they're trying to break people. And they almost broke me. But they didn't."
"Defendants’ bigotry manifests itself in low expectations. They do not expect Black or Hispanic students to achieve the same mastery of academic subject matters as other students and therefore insist that deficient performance must be excused," the lawsuit said."Second, Defendants’ bigotry manifests itself in overt discrimination against students and faculty who do apply consistent standards, especially White faculty.
Alina Wong was an assistant vice provost for Educational Equity at Pennsylvania State University at the time the alleged racial discrimination occurred. She no longer works at PSU.
