Fired For Wearing “Ethnic Clothing” and Braids..

Melphine Evans.

For those of you females who are looking for employment at British Petroleum (BP), have braids and like to wear “African- Dress” you may want to think twice.  A former BP executive was recently fired for “wearing ethnic clothing/hairstyles” and failed to “alert people in advance that you will be wearing something ethnic.''

Melphine Evans who is black and has worked with PB in several positions since 2001 is now suing the company for racial decimation,  she stated in her law suit that her employer made up 'bullying and overly aggressive behavior' complaints used to fire her to cover up 'racist and sexist comments and actions and ... hostile and discriminatory treatment that was inconsistent with her similarly situated white counterparts at BP.'
