Description
James Jackson, a male African-American, has been employed with the Rockford Housing Authority (RHA) since 1981, and currently serves as a development manager. The RHA provides low-income public housing. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) subsidizes RHA and other local housing authorities, and it regulates low-income housing projects. In December 1985, Jackson applied for the position of Senior Housing Manager with the RHA. Steven Anderson, a male Caucasian, also applied for the position. Alfred Brewington, the Director of Management Services for the RHA, interviewed both Jackson and Anderson for the Senior Housing Manager position. Don Johnson, RHA's Executive Director, made the ultimate hiring decision. In 1986, he promoted Anderson to the job. Executive Director Johnson is now deceased. Jackson claims that when Brewington interviewed him, Brewington remarked that Jackson and Anderson were equally qualified. From the time RHA selected Anderson for the position, until July 1995, Jackson never asked Brewington or Johnson why he lost out on the Senior Housing Manager position. Jackson was never informed that his race stood in the way of the promotion.
