A former Southwest Airlines employee has filed a discrimination lawsuit claiming the airline allowed employees to create a whites-only break room at Houston’s Hobby Airport.
Jamel Parker, who was fired by Southwest last year, says he learned about the so-called “WB” when he started working for the airline in 2013. He claims it existed for years until a recent renovation of Hobby Airport.
Parker’s lawsuit also claims black employees found a noose made of bungee cords at a Southwest gate at Hobby.
His lawsuit alleges black employees are held to a higher standard than their white counterparts.
