Noose Hanging at Ram Truck Plant Adds to Auto Industry Tensions
Fiat Chrysler workers at the Ram Plant in Michigan found a noose hanging in the workplace, leading to a second investigation into racism at the factory. Nooses are typically understood to be a threat of violence towards African Americans, and this wasn’t the first account the plant has experienced racial aggression directed at a certain group of workers. The company has taken action by hiring a third party to look into who is responsible for hanging the noose.
