Aung Htein – Race Discrimination Lawsuit Testimony
U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board Docket Number
DC-1221-16-0227-W-1 / John S. Edwards v. Department of Labor
“Systemic Racism” is present when the people in an organization at every level turn a blind eye to racism when it is presented to them. I would like to share my family’s personal story about Systemic Racism in the U.S. federal government to demonstrate how it is permitted, approved and ignored by elected officials in both major political parties in Washington, D.C.
MY TESTIMONY
“I swear before God that I personally witnessed eight highly competent African American federal employees be denied promotions and assignments that would enhance their careers. I was ordered to remain silent while a black woman was treated like a wild animal and herded into subservient jobs for many years because of the color of her skin.”
