Tesla ordered to pay more than $3 million in damages over racially hostile workplace
Josh Edelson | AFP | Getty Imagesto pay $3 million in punitive damages and $175,000 in economic damages to Owen Diaz, a former elevator operator at the company's factory in Fremont, California, after he endured a racially hostile work environment during his time at the company.
The drawing left at his workspace was a rudimentary one that resembled Inki the Caveman, a 1950s era cartoon widely regarded as racist, whose main character is a Black boy portrayed with big lips, wearing a loincloth, earrings, and a bone through his hair. "No Black man in 2015 should ever be subjected," Alexander said, "to this plantation mentality workplace."
Tesla counsel Alex Spiro argued that Diaz should only be awarded damages amounting to about half of his salary, some tens of thousands of dollars, not millions. Diaz had not disclosed his salary during the course of the trial, Judge William Orrick said in the midst of Spiro's closing argument last week on Friday.
