Presidential hopeful Mike Bloomberg once told an employee struggling to find childcare to go find 'some black who doesn't have to speak English', claims new lawsuit
Billionaire Democratic presidential candidate Mike Bloomberg once told a female employee struggling to find childcare to hire 'some black,' according to a 1998 lawsuit.
'It's a f***ing baby! All it does is eat and s**t! It doesn't know the difference between you and anyone else! All you need is some black who doesn't have to speak English to rescue it from a burning building,' Bloomberg said in July 1993 to a female salesperson who'd just had a baby, according to the lawsuit.
The woman responded by crying at her boss's harsh words, according to the lawsuit, which is the subject of a new report by the Washington Post.
The incident is one of many descriptions of sexist and demeaning remarks compiled in a lawsuit filed against Bloomberg and his financial information company in 1998 by Sekiko Sakai Garrison.
