Man Sues ASPCA Over Sexual Harrassment An African American NYC man is suing the animal rights organization he worked for until last August, alleging that he was catcalled and sexually teased by a brood of white women who thought it was fun to grope him and come up with sexual pet names to call him in the office. He believes no one took his complaints seriously because he’s a gay black man working with a team of straight white women … Via TMZ : An ASPCA employee in NYC says he was treated like a piece of meat, or rather — a giant piece of chocolate candy by female co-workers who groped him and discriminated against him. Benjamin Li’Gon is suing the animal rights group where he was the hiring manager up until August … and in the docs he says he is a gay black man, which is significant since most of his co-workers were white heterosexual women. Li’Gon describes a sorority girls gone wild atmosphere where one colleague groped him and called him “sexual chocolate” while others watched. It might have been a reference to an hysterical “Coming to America” scene, but Li’Gon wasn’t laughing. He also says another woman called him “sexy Benny boo boo bear” in an elevator. None of those people were disciplined, according to his lawsuit. Li’Gon says he thinks the head of HR of hates gay black men, since his frequent complaints to her fell on deaf ears. He was fired in August, after he says he was accused of “inappropriate horseplay” with his male assistant … which he denies. Li’Gon is suing for wrongful termination and discrimination, seeking at least $2 million. Now let this have been one of the white women complaining that this Black man was touching them inappropriately and “catcalling” them in the office…Human Resources would have reacted faster than the speed of light! SMH.
