Excerpt:
A Muslim woman in a newly filed federal lawsuit says she was fired from her new job as a receptionist at a Livonia dermatology clinic two days after the mass shooting in San Bernardino, Calif.
According to the lawsuit filed today in U.S. District Court in Detroit, the plaintiff — Terry Ali — had only been on the $14-an-hour job for one day at Livonia Dermatology when national news broke about the shootings carried out by a Muslim couple.
The day after the shootings, when she came into work, Ali — who wears a hijab — was assigned to work in a back room putting files away, not in the front greeting clients, which was what she was hired to do, the lawsuit claims.
