A former pro baseball player who built one of the largest Black-owned McDonald’s franchises claims the company forced him to sell stores to white owners in a squeeze play that violated his civil rights.

Did he make money on the sales of the franchises. If so then what's the problem? McDonald's is a business not a social program.
They’re all RACISSS!
No more race wars.... enough. Don’t sell then.
A lot more to this story than what this rag is writing.
A. This all happened many years ago.
B. He’ was planning to have a press conference with
Jesse (Ca-Ching!) Jackson present to offer ‘support’.
In franchise businesses, you have marks that you must make for the business to be considered healthy and viable. A bad month or quarter is allowed, but you can’t keep under performing what the corporation expects and keep your job.
He was probably not meeting expectations.
If you have a conflict with MCD, you make outrageous claims of racism - its what MCD fears more than anything.
Those heartless bustards would do that during black history month?
That’s another reason why I dislike slop joints like McWhopper. Most are owned or the franchisees are people like this guy, wealthy foreign nationals, wealthy Muslim$ etc.
This guy was on the New York Federal Reserve Board. I’ve been to one of his McDonalds, and can’t recommend it to anyone...even for a Mcdonald’s. It was dirty and served cold food.
Being together with Jesse Jackson says all that needs to be said.
Because corporations are racist. They don’t care about profit at all. Only hating the black man...
Always excusing their failures by blaming Whitey.
I have been to Mr. Washington’s McDonalds stores. They are the filthiest franchise stores I have ever seen. It is a shame since he had a chance to set an example.
WKBN 27 Youngstown OH Facebook page has a posting on him. If you do access Facebook, check out the comments...almost all support my claim
