Founders Brewing Co. faces another racial discrimination lawsuit as Detroit taproom

[BidenPresident]

Just hours before Founders Brewing Co. abruptly announced the closure of its Detroit taproom, it got hit with a new racial discrimination lawsuit — this one filed by a Black employee who says she was promoted "purely for optic reasons" and subjected to "egregious racial harassment."

"During the closure of our Detroit facility on Monday, we were unaware of the filing. We announced the closing to all of our Detroit staff on Monday morning, and did not learn about the lawsuit filed against Founders until that evening when a reporter contacted us. As with any closure, there was a lot of work that needed to be done to prepare for the loss of this extension, including redistribution of internal assets, conversations with our landlord and pulling together a comprehensive severance plan, all of which take time.

If this company is racist then they are getting what they deserved and Detroit loses another business. If this company isn't racist and this is a frivolous lawsuit, then Detroit loses another business. Either way, Detroit gets fucked.
