As a joke based on a losing Super Bowl bet some employees atthe New England Telephone Company hung a noose in theworkplace. Upon seeing the noose Herman Wilson a blackco-worker promptly took it down and reported the incident tomanagement. The perpetrators of the incident werereprimanted and warned that further incidents would result in moreserious discipline. In addition management sent a messageto all employees explaining the history of the noose as a symbol ofracial hatred. Neverthe less Mr. Wilson filed a complaintof discrimination based on racial harassment?
