Supreme Court Finds Discrimination Against Black Firemen
The Supreme Court upheld a 1940s agreement between the Brotherhood of Firemen and Enginemen and several railroads that limited Black firemen’s placement and advancement. Tom Tunstall of Norfolk Southern challenged the pact, claiming it aimed to exclude Black workers. Lower courts had deemed the pact illegal, and the case moved through the Fourth Circuit to the high court.
