Alleges university took action because of a pending investigation
A federal lawsuit alleges that California Lutheran University officials slandered its softball players and coaches for a skit performed by a few team members.
Attorneys representing players and coaches first filed the lawsuit this summer, and it appears to still be pending. Neither attorneys Michael Saltz nor Elana Levine responded to two emails sent in the past two weeks seeking comment and an update on the suit.
Their clients “held a teambonding lip-sync event with makeup and costumes” in January 2020. “Five members of the team wore facial hair makeup to disguise themselves as males,” the lawsuit said. “Three of these young women wore hats, and two wore Caucasian male wigs (i.e., Napoleon Dynamite costume wigs).”
The lawsuit alleges that university officials criticized the players because an accrediting agency was investigating the school over past claims of racism.
Despite the clearly non-racial nature of the event, the lawsuit says, the university accused the players of racism and referred to the costumes as “blackface.” Coach De Ann Young, who is black, oversaw the event.
That did not stop then-President Chris Kimball and Vice-President Melissa Maxwell-Doherty from making the accusations to local and national press, according to the suit. “Blackface and the N-word evoke white supremacy, anti-blackness and remind us that a violent, racist past is still with us today,” Kimball wrote in an email on February 2020, according to the Ventura County Star .

University accused of allowing for public shaming
University officials “allowed the Softball Team and their Coaches to be publicly shamed and harassed, placed in fear for their safety, and to otherwise suffer lifelong injury to their mental health and reputations” the attorneys said in their filing.“At one point, one of the leaders of the Softball Team expressly informed Defendants in writing that the young women on the Softball Team were in desperate need of help by mental health professionals as a result of the events put in motion by Defendants.”The Lutheran university’s media relations team has not responded to multiple emails in the past month from The College Fi x that sought […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
