After months of searching for a weekend job, Bukola, who is Black, finally got an interview withthe owner of a busy car wash and gas station. The owner seemed reluctant to hire him, but Bukolamanaged to win him over. The owner gave him the job, saying that he would be working on aweekend shift with seven other young men, all students from the local area. The shift managerwould train him on the car wash equipment. Bukola was a devout Christian who would come earlyto work and spend some time to pray. He had a strong accent and a relatively loud voice whichcould sound intimidate but he was very calm and jovial.

On Bukola's first day, the shift manager gave him only a few minutes of instruction on theequipment. Bukola watched what the other men were doing, but when he asked questions, theywere not very helpful. On a few occasions Emma in the presence of the other colleagues wouldjokingly ask him to speak slowly and in English. On other occasions, Ranovic would as if hisprayers will help bring manner from heaven because he is hungry

Over the next few weekends, Bukola concentrated on his work but because of certain events, heincreasingly began to stay by himself. A few co-workers invited him to join their little group forlunch or breaks, but others consistently cracked ethnic and racial jokes, often within hearing of theshift manager. One day Bukola overheard the manager say that Black people were responsible forincreased violence in the community although some are too religious and lazy. This statementencouraged some co-workers, who had previously eaten lunch with Bukola, to tell a couple ofjokes about Black people. When they glanced at him as they told their jokes, he got up and walkedaway.

One busy Saturday afternoon, a whole section of the car wash equipment broke down becausesomeone had allowed the system to become overheated. Bukola had worked on that section untilhis break, when a co-worker took over. The system had broken down at some point after that.

The shift manager was furious and accused Bukola of negligence. Bukola replied that he believedthe system was fine when he left for his break. Although Bukola insisted that the equipment failurewas not his fault, the shift manager fired him. Bukola believed he was discriminated againstbecause he is Black, while his co-workers and managers are White.
