Detroit report highlights friction on City Council
Detroit A city councilwoman concerned about the rapport among council members and internal communications she claims are harassing and intimidating is pushing for immediate workplace training for the panel.
In a memorandum Friday to Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones and the city s directors of the Civil Rights & Inclusion Office and Human Resources Department, Councilwoman Raquel Castañeda-López called for training on workplace harassment and discrimination; sexual harassment; unconscious and implicit bias; and diversity, equity and inclusion. I believe any concerns related to workplace hostility, intimidation and/or discrimination should be taken seriously and addressed immediately, she said.
