Attorney representing black customers who said they were asked to change tables at a Chicago-area Buffalo Wild Wings because a regular patron didn’t want “to sit around black people' calls on chain to implement rigorous employee training program.
Justin Vahl of Montgomery, IL and his wife, Mary, right, speak during a press conference Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2019 about how he was asked to move at a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in Naperville, Ill., because a nearby couple didn't want to sit near blacks.
Justin Vahl, one of the adults at the child’s party, recalled walking into the restaurant with a group of nearly 20 people — some as young as 5 years old — and the host promptly asking what race he was. When Vahl inquired as to why that mattered, he said the host responded, “We have a regular customer here who doesn’t want to sit around black people.”Vahl and Marcus Riley, another adult who attended the party, said the group sat down anyway near the customer who levied the complaint.
Lambert questioned how the company would enforce that. He also demanded that it thoroughly question prospective employees to make sure they know how to properly deal with “racially charged situations” before they’re hired and establish a hotline for any employee who witnesses such an incident in the future. He said the company’s ongoing sensitivity training should include some of the customers who faced the discrimination in Naperville.
