Demonstration over state workers discrimination comes to Sussex Co.

Faith leaders and community activists held a third demonstration, this time in Sussex County, to address reported racial discrimination among state workers.

According to the Delaware Faith In Action Coalition, discrimination complaints have been filed against a number of state directors and senior leadership officials, but no action has been taken.

The coalition has raised these concerns with state legislators and delegates and are continuing to seek support from Delaware Leadership for what they’re calling “systemic racism and discrimination.”

The coalition believes the issues are statewide and largely found in the Department of Labor.
