Three former and current Multnomah County Library employees are suing the organization for discriminating against Black staff members, according to a complaint filed Tuesday in Multnomah County Circuit Court.
Gurske s comments came after Raven complained to him about feeling discriminated against based on her gender.
When Gurske asked for examples, Raven reached over to her desk and pulled out her nameplate. A male fire chief had replaced her name with a nickname that meant she was crazy, the complaint reads.
The complaint also alleges that Gurske changed a male recruit s failing grade on a written exam to a passing one but terminated a female recruit from the same class for one small error in her practical exam. When Raven challenged Gurske over changing the male recruit s grade, the complaint states, she was disciplined. Gurske allegedly brought up that disciplinary action when Raven interviewed for the division chief position last November.
