Summary
A Black female developer is suing the city of Inkster, Michigan, over what she calls a racist and sexist campaign to sabotage her $21 million housing project. The lawsuit accuses officials—including the mayor—of sexual harassment, economic extortion, and discriminatory permitting practices, citing a controversial comment about her “dirty knees” as evidence. Gajewski claims her development faces far stricter inspections than similar white-led projects, plus crippling tax assessments that blocked funding. She’s seeking over $700,000 in damages and an order to clear the way for her project. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
