City Settles Long-Running Race Discrimination Case

A long-running race discrimination case brought by a former city attorney and another city employee against the city of Cambridge, Massachusetts has been settled.  Former city lawyer Linda Stamper and current city employee Mary Wong brought the suit. It was related to another race discrimination and retaliation suit by another former city employee stemming from actions of city manager Robert Healy, who last year was cited by a judge "deliberate, systematic campaign to punish the plaintiff as a reprisal for her effrontery in lodging a discrimination claim.''
