An African American woman says she was discriminated against at J. Alexander’s restaurant in West Bloomfield, Michigan, when she was asked to give up her seat to a white man and refused service. She is calling for the termination of all employees involved. Lia Gant, her attorney Maurice Davis, and Jerrick Jackson, another patron at the restaurant last Thursday who says he was called the N-word, held a press conference Monday. “We refuse to backslide into a nation where black people are told to give up their seat to white people, where black people are denied services at restaurants,” said Davis. Thursday’s incident began when a white bartender asked Lia Gant and her friend to give up their seats at the bar for two white men, according to Gant. When Gant refused, the bartender took her drink and poured it down the sink. “I immediately got up and went to management and she said I shouldn’t be upset because the drink wasn’t thrown on me,” said Gant. Gant said she paid the bill after the manager refused to remove it. "I was racially profiled. I was told to move out of my seat for two other white men to be seated," she said. Meanwhile, Jackson said he was also discriminated against on the same day, when a white patron called him the N-word and told him to leave after he complained to management about poor service. Video was recorded as the white customer yelled at Jackson, hurled food, and nearly struck Gant’s friend in the face. When West Bloomfield police arrived, Jackson says the restaurant employees concealed the identity of the patron who threw food at them. “We will fight to ensure that J. Alexander’s is held accountable for denying our client’s rights to a public accommodation in violation of her fundamental civil rights,” said Davis in a release. Jackson said that that he and Gant did not know each other and that both incidents happened on the same evening. “That’s not coincidental. This restaurant has a culture of racism,” he said. J. Alexander's has issued the following statement: 2033

A nurse who tested positive for COVID-19 says she’s getting better each day and expects to fully recover.Lisa Merck is not sure where she became infected with the virus but says symptoms started out very mild late last month."I started having just a little sniffling in my nose. It's almost like if you go outside and it's cold out and your nose just starts running a bit," Merck said in a video interview from her house.After a few days, in late February, the mild symptoms became worse.“Every time I stood up, I felt like I just kind of wanted to pass out. I got really tired,” she said.What surprised her is that after a few more days she started to feel better. She felt well enough to volunteer her time with a ski race in her small, central Colorado town. At one point, she went for a run with her husband.Doctors tested her for influenza and the results came back negative. Her health continued to improve, she said."I was feeling okay,” she said. “I watched my little nephew, and then around March 1st and 2nd, I started getting a fever. I started getting a little short of breath."This time, those symptoms persisted, and she eventually asked her husband to take her to the emergency room the second week of March. She tested positive for COVID-19. Merck provided a copy of her county health department notification, which requested she not have contact with members of the public while she recovers."I don't know where I got that kind of virus. That's the hard thing is not knowing I could have picked it up from a patient and I could have picked it up from a surface,” she said. “It could have been at an airport, on a place or a bus. I have no idea where I got it and that's the scary thing. And you know, especially since I am hyper vigilant about it, making sure my hands are clean and that I do the right thing.”Merck said she agreed to talk publicly, because she wants others to know what to watch for. She says she also wants the public to know that most people will beat the virus. "I'm feeling a lot better. I'm feeling more energetic. I did a little yoga this morning. I did some stretching," she said.She’s still staying away from other people as she recovers. 2193

Alabama Public Television says it won't air an episode of the children's show "Arthur" that featured a same-sex marriage."Mr. Ratburn and the Special Someone" aired as the premiere for the show's 22nd season on May 13. But not in Alabama.Programming director Mike McKenzie says Alabama Public Television has no plans to broadcast the episode.The storyline about Mr. Ratburn's marriage conveys a positive message, he said. But while many parents will find it appropriate, many others will disagree, he said -- "either because their children are too young, or because of their beliefs.""Our broadcast would take away the choice of parents who feel it is inappropriate," McKenzie told CNN in a statement.The response to the decisionCNN has reached out to WGBH, which produces the series, and is waiting to hear back. PBS told CNN that its local channels decide what to put on the air in their markets."PBS Kids programs are designed to reflect the diversity of communities across the nation," PBS Kids' Maria Vera Whelan told CNN. "We believe it is important to represent the wide array of adults in the lives of children who look to PBS Kids every day."The show's creator told CNN he felt like the episode was a responsibility they had with Arthur.Mark Brown cited his friend Fred Rogers, better known as Mr. Rogers, who taught him how television could be used to help children in families."So many of us have have family or friends who are gay who are not represented in the media," Brown says. "We have people in our family that are gay and raising children and looking for things to validate their families."The ceremony is a literal wink and nodThe episode doesn't specifically address Ratburn's sexuality or show a marriage ceremony."Who is Mr. Ratburn marrying?" Muffie, one of the character, asks.The scene then cuts to Mr. Ratburn, their third-grade teacher walking down the aisle with Patrick, a chocolate maker. Patrick simply answers the children with a wink.To see the episode for yourself, view the episode by clicking 2046

After having trouble conceiving on their own, a white couple opted for in-vitro fertilization and gave birth to a baby girl. When their daughter was a toddler, they grew concerned that she didn't look like them."When she was born, all my friends said, 'Oh, she looks Asian, she looks Asian,'" said Kristina Koedderich, the girl's mother. "We were cracking the jokes... but you just figure every baby, like, looks different when they're born."For nearly four years, Koedderich and her now ex-husband Drew Wasilewski have been wondering who is their daughter's biological father.Koedderich gave birth to her daughter in 2013. When the girl was about 2 years old, the mother said she noticed her daughter's features were different than hers. Then, strangers also began asking whether they had adopted her.A DNA test in 2015 confirmed that Wasilewski was not related to the girl, the lawsuit says.After getting the DNA results, the New Jersey parents said they called the Institute for Reproductive Medicine and Science at St. Barnabas looking for answers, but they said staff members only apologized and told them they couldn't confirm that something went wrong.Koedderich and Wasilewski filed a lawsuit accusing the Livingston, New Jersey-based fertility clinic as well as several of its employees of failing to maintain a proper chain of custody of semen samples and impregnating Koedderich with the sperm of a man who was not her husband.The defendants in the case have suggested that an extramarital affair led to the birth of the girl, according to a court order compelling the defense to produce records.Dr. John Garrisi, the director of embryology laboratory at the clinic, said in a deposition conducted in March that the procedure was done correctly."Mr. Wasilewski's sperm was used for the insemination of Mrs. Wasilewski's (Koedderich) eggs." Garrisi said in the deposition.Ronn Torossian, a spokesman for the Institute for Reproductive Medicine and Science, told CNN the clinic does not comment on individual patient matters but said they are taking the case "very seriously.""We are an organization comprised of passionate, dedicated medical professionals whose singular mission is to help our patients build their families," Torossian said in a statement. "The integrity of our treatment processes are paramount and we are taking this matter very seriously. As such, we are thoroughly examining the alleged incident, which is said to have occurred in 2012."Lawyers representing the other defendants did not return CNN's requests for comment.Koedderich and Wasilewski are also alleging the fertility clinic and the rest of the defendants failed to properly test Koedderich and inform her of the improper fertilization, according to the filing.In addition to their daughter not being Wasilewski's biological child, the parents' lawsuit cites the defendants' negligence as a reason for the breakdown of their marriage and raises the possibility that Wasilewski could have numerous other biological children that he's not aware of, the document states."If they are out there, I want to tell them who I am ... who their grandmother is and who their grandfather is," Waskilewski said.Last month, Superior Court Judge Keith Lynott ordered the clinic to maintain all records and identities of the semen donors who used the facility around the time Koedderich was impregnated, court documents show.The case is still pending."She's the most adorable little kid," Wasilewski said. "I want to be there as long as I can. But it still doesn't make it right what happened."Their daughter may be too young to understand what is happening, but when she's ready, no matter what happens, Koedderich and Wasilewski say they want her to see they did everything they could to find the truth. 3792
