Rochester Firefighter Suing After Being Forced To Attend Racist-Themed Party | TSR Investigates THE SHADE ROOM
Aug 30, 2022 Jerrod Jones, a Black firefighter in Rochester, New York claims he was forced to go to a racist party by his supervisor, while on the clock. Jones was shocked when he entered the “Liberal Smashing, Splish Splash Pool Party.'' He immediately noticed a cardboard cutout of Donald Trump at the door, Juneteenth flags displayed next to buckets of chicken, and small gift bags containing Hennesey and a Juneteenth commemorative cup. He even claims that he tried to report the incident to his officers above him and nothing was done about it. The prominent NYC couple responsible for throwing the party insist they’re not racists and had no idea how these things could be offensive. Jones is now suing the city of Rochester and the Rochester Fire Department for 4.4 million dollars. Could this party have been one big misunderstanding? Or is this a clearly racist act that was ignored by the Rochester Fire Department?
