Hanes Underwear in a Bunch Over N-Word Email
The makers of Michael Jordan's underwear are now the target of a racial discrimination lawsuit.
Hanesbrands was sued in New York last week by Yunusa Kenchi after he was fired as creative designer at the company. Kenchi is African American and Muslim.
The firing led Kenchi to reveal what he calls a culture at Hanes of "consistent insults and ridicule from a hostile supervisor," at a company in which "racial improprieties abound." Before his firing, Kenchi claims he discovered an email exchange between two high ranking supervisors referring to him stating, "We should go forward with getting this [n-word] out of here and getting [a white employee who had left] back."
What makes these allegations even more shocking is that this is a major national brand with a black man as their main marketer.
