Judge Says Putting Noose On Black Woman's Desk Isn't Racial Threat (video and pictures)
by Dr. Boyce Watkins
According to KATU.com a woman came to work to find the kind of surprise that no one wants to face on the job. She says that she arrived and found that a noose had been left in her cubicle, possibly as a sick prank or even a threat. Even more startling is that the noose was allegedly delivered by one of her supervisors.
“This is 2014 and a supervisor brings a noose to work and nothing is done about it,” Vanessa Savage told KATU.
Savage, who lives in Washington County, Oregon, says that besides the noose being in her cubicle, she also found a note with the words “termination notice.” This is when she became alarmed and alerted authorities. To her surprise, an investigation by the county concluded that there was no racial motivation for the noose. They then ordered all employees to undergo sensitivity training.
But despite the odd conclusion of the county’s “investigation,” she isn’t backing down from this one.
“A noose is designed to terrorize people and there’s a historical precedent that that’s what the noose does,” she said. “And when you put a noose on a note that says ‘terminated, fired,’ he wanted it to have a certain impact and it did.”
Savage says that she feels the investigation was botched and that the supervisor should not be allowed to get away without being punished. She also says that she is hiring an attorney to help look into the case. She has taken a leave of absence, determining that she is in a hostile work environment. Ya think?
Financial Juneteenth lessons from this story:
1) Workplace racism is rampant and like Ms. Savage, there are very few legal remedies for those who are affected. If you can’t get solutions inside your company, consider going to find outside help. MOREHERE

More “race card” law suits. Boo Hoo..he should have went all the way and burnt a cross in her cubicle.
Over the past several years EVERY SINGLE TIME A MONKEY SAYS this nonsense it is proven that they did it themselves. The only racists out there are the ones crying it over and over again for their personal gain.
More White People have been MUGGED, MURDERED, “KNOCKOUT-GAMED”, more Cities burned, ………… I believe the sympathy card has been burned up.
