Three black men are accusing American Airlines of racial discrimination in a lawsuit filed after the airline removed eight black men from a flight.
They reportedly were told after disembarking that they were removed from the flight “because of a complaint about body odor,” but they said no one accused them of that on the plane. The men, who didn’t know one another, were later let back on the Phoenix-to-New York flight.
“We take all claims of discrimination very seriously and want our customers to have a positive experience when they choose to fly with us,” American said in a. “Our teams are currently investigating the matter, as the claims do not reflect our core values or our purpose of caring for people.” A cellphone recording obtained by the outlet revealed an American employee agreeing with a man who had described the removal as discriminatory, saying they agreed. The men are requesting compensation for “fear, humiliation, embarrassment, mental pain, suffering and inconvenience” they endured, as well as punitive damages.Watch this insane video of what happened.
