SDNY COURTHOUSE, Jan 17 – The non-profit Getting Out and Staying Out is being sued for discrimination by its Asian American former CFO. 

On January 15, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Ronnie Abrams held a proceeding. Inner City Press covered it.    

The plaintiff, Debbie Li, says that GOSO's founder Mark L. Goldsmith "began to verbally harass and emotionally abuse [her] due to her gender and race." The complaint has the N-word in it.  

  Judge Abrams cited mediation. Depositions are due May 1.

The case is Li v. Getting Out and Staying Out, Inc. et al., 20-cv-7152 (Abram)
