Lovely People, Those Christian Coalition Folks

Posted by Ampersand | July 26th, 2006

From a rather gloating article about the Christian Coalition’s troubles (which include massive unpaid bills, lawsuits, local chapters bailing, etc) in the current issue of Ms Magazine:

In 2001, 10 African American employees filed a racial-discrimination lawsuit alleging that they were forced to enter the office by the back door and eat lunch in a segregated area. The suite was settled for about $300,000, according to several published reports.

Yes, we can’t be absolutely beyond-any-shadow-of-a-sliver-of-doubt sure the accusations were true, since the CC chose to settle out of court. Nonetheless: Holy crap.
