In a recent filing with the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, B. Starks has initiated a lawsuit against The Harris Center Foundation and The Harris Center for Mental Health and IDD. The plaintiff alleges discrimination based on race and age, citing violations under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, and the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. Starks claims she was wrongfully terminated after experiencing differential treatment due to her being an African American woman over the age of 60. The complaint details incidents of racial and age-related discrimination, including exclusion from professional opportunities and being subjected to hostile work conditions. Starks is seeking damages for lost wages, emotional distress, punitive damages, and attorneys’ fees.
