NAACP chair says unaware of Chavis settlement
NAACP board chair William Gibson said he did not know in advance of a settlement of up to 332200 between executive director Benjamin Chavis and a woman who alleged sexual harassment. Gibson defended Chavis saying he had authority to handle the complaint and that board members demanded resignations. The case involves Ms Mary Stansel who sued in June claiming employment discrimination, sexual harassment and wrongful discharge.
