ECBAWM filed a race discrimination lawsuit in federal court on behalf of ERASE Racism, a Long Island-based non-profit organization, the Fair Housing Justice Center (FHJC), and three African American testers against the owner and manager of Town House Apartments in Mineola, New York. The Complaint alleges that African Americans were not shown the same apartments that whites were shown, were quoted a higher monthly rent, and were told to call back in a month or more later because there are people waiting ahead of them for the next available apartment. The plaintiffs are represented by Diane L. Houk and Samuel Shapiro of ECBAWM.
