Elizabeth Maland, who was San Diego’s city clerk for 17 years, allegedly has a history of refusing to promote workers she deemed too old or who weren’t White or Hispanic.
A lawsuit against San Diego and its recently retired city clerk alleges long-standing discrimination, with an attorney claiming no Black person under Elizabeth Maland’s supervision had received a promotion since 2011.
The lawsuit was filed by attorney Michael Conger on behalf of current and former city staffers Ivy Blackwood-Evans, Samantha Ely, A. Trida Hughes and Sabrina Tatum. Ely is of Japanese and Native American descent, while the other three plaintiffs are Black, according to today!
