    Former Smith College staffer sues school for maintaining hostile anti-white workplace

    Jodi Shaw filed the lawsuit against Smith College earlier this month, accusing the Northampton school “fostered a toxic climate of racial fear, hostility, and exclusion” and that she was forced into “an ideologically driven campaign of race-essentialism and collective guilt pushed by the school.”

    “[Smith College] steadily removed [Shaw’s] job responsibilities, denied her promotional opportunities consistent with all of her colleagues, placed her on furlough, launched a pretextual investigation into her email usage, and deliberately made any further employment at Smith College impossible for Shaw,” the lawsuit alleges.

    According to the lawsuit, Shaw was subjected to repeated harassment and discrimination on multiple occasions because of her skin color. In one instance, she was told she could not organize a “library rap” with students “because you are white.”
