[Opinion] The Deeply Offensive Reason Three Black Men Were Kicked Off an American Airlines Flight (msn.com)
The latest legal battle coming against American Airlines isn’t about a window flying off the plane or disputes over Skiplagged tickets. Three Black men are standing up for themselves and five others who claim they were
racially targeted when removed from a flight earlier this year.A lawsuit filed by Alvin Jackson, Emmanuel Jean Joseph and Xavier Veal in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York stems from a January incident. The suit claims American Airlines employees asked eight passengers, all for whom were Black,
to exit their plane headed to John F. Kennedy International Airport from Phoenix because of an alleged “offensive body odor.” A video shows the group of passengers at the door of the plane right before the jet bridge
speaking with the flight attendant.“This is crazy. Y’all just took like eight Black people off the plane... Yo, I paid for the flight just like everybody else. So, we don’t have a right to be on this flight?” said Veal behind the camera. The flight attendant then
orders them to exit the jet bridge and ask their questions to the staff in the airport.In another clip, the men are seen speaking to another airline staffer. “This is discrimination… just because of the color of my skin,” one passenger said. “This is insane!” says another.
