A former white student of the Howard University School of Law has filed suit against the HBCU institution, alleging racial discrimination and the fostering of a"hostile education environment."
The former student alerted school officials of the treatment he was subjected to, but the administration of the law school rejected the notion that white students, Newman included, were faced with any measure of racial discrimination, the suit alleged. When he asked a question in a professor's forum regarding"whether: black voters didn’t question turning to government for solutions, and reliably voting for the same party every election disincentivized both parties from responding to the needs of the black communities" in the lead-up to the 2020 election, students attacked him, he said.
He wanted to"learn, not just law, but to learn the thoughts and experiences of people of color," the lawsuit read.He was called"mayo king,""white panther," and students were stating that Newman's comments were causing"severe stress" and was distracting them from their studies, he claimed.
