I wish him luck. At age 58, this will probably be the last thing he officially does in education before retirement.
And you never know. Maybe he is still hungry for that promotion, and has no plans to step back from the work force.
If he does stay working in education after this suit has been filed, he may want to switch school districts, because that type of working environment is notorious for ‘payback’ to whistleblowers.

Franco has two master’s degrees from St. Peter’s University and Rutgers University, and a bachelor’s degree in biology and psychology from RutgersOK, but can he speak Spanish & Ebonics?

More power to him. I hope his case gets a fair hearing. Affirmative action, bias, and bigotry must be replaced with merit.

There has never been a final court ruling that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 applies to whites.
It’s past time to find out if it does, since it says so in plain English.

Yeah, but courts have a funny way of ruling that plain English doesn’t mean what everybody knows it means. Too many examples at hand. “Shall not be infringed” and “sex” come to mind.

“Maybe he is still hungry for that promotion...”
I’ll be he is. His salary (and later pension) as an administrator will be much more than as a teacher.
This is not to say that he’s being denied the position because of his race.

There has never been a final court ruling that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 applies to whites.
In 2002 (Sirmans v. Brownlee), a US District Court found the US Army's promotion system, implemented during the Clinton administration, which favored women and minorities, to be unconstitutional on grounds that it violated the Fifth Amendment's Due Process Clause and the Fourteenth Amendment's guarantee of equal protection. The case clarified that these rights were guaranteed at the federal and state level and the army did not appeal the decision. The Civil Rights Act was not cited in the opinion.

The guy is an idiot. What white man would ever want to work with 95% blacks and Hispanics?

Rats. Biased hiring is a very real problem, but this guy’s claim that the district staff is 95% minority simply isn’t true. I’d say over 1/3 of the admin visible from the district’s school’s pages are white, including several males.

Paterson NJ is one of the police departments featured in On Patrol Live.
It is a stunningly awful dump—in other words a Democratic paradise.
White people would find life on the Moon more tolerable.

“While I applaud the fact that the district employs many minorities to serve its mostly minority student population”
I bet this idiot supports every single one of the marxist policies that led to him being passed up for promotions and has voted democrat his entire voting life. Enjoy the suck.

Maybe it’s the penalty payments that will put him over the top and he can then retire. More power to him. I’m sure his 2 Masters degrees crush the diversity choices
