Why do it matter
In November, after the president Donald TrumpElections, Wal -Mart joined a large number of large companies that have retracted their diversity, stock and inclusive rights. Walmart is a non -union workplace.
Soon after taking office, Trump has signed an executive stating that “the US policy is to identify two sexes, males and females. These sexes are not subject to change and are based on the basic and indisputable reality.”
There were violent reaction incidents in all parts of the country, and some activists have noticed that non -jury may face discrimination and scrutiny, as stated with Davis.
What do you know
In a Facebook post on March 24, Davis described the incident that she believed to have ended. She said that on March 14, while working in one of Wall Mart in Lake City, Florida, a man entered a ladder toilet where she was.
Davis is known as a “long biological woman”, born and she does not continue to know that she is a woman. It is about 6 feet and 4 inches long.
She said that she was alone in the bathroom when she heard the man screaming about “Transnies” and making violent threats, including herself about hitting her. “I assume that I am transformed because of my height. It was terrifying,” Davis believed.
After a few minutes, she left the bathroom and the accident was “direct supervisor”. The following week, she says, she was finished with her job.
She wrote in her post: “The reason that made them infinite is that I have not informed a member of the accident management, and that not doing so is a security threat.”
I also noticed that it was fired without any papers. Its post included many questions that she was wondering, such as how security risks were when she was shouting.
Davis later wrote that the response she received from other Facebook users was “overwhelming in the best way”, noting that she had received a lot of advice. She said she would seek legal advice.

What people say
A spokesman for Wall Mart said Newsweek In an email on Thursday: “We want our partners to feel safe and support them in their workplace, and we will not tolerate bullying or threats of violence against our colleagues or customers. We have reviewed the situation and we will deal with it internally. I have also made multiple attempts to invite Mrs. Davis to return to work, with the rear wage.”
Amber Jani, Davis’s mother, books In a Facebook post on March 25: “My daughters’ height is a responsibility in the current political climate – at least in Florida … it is excited and wonderful and does not deserve this from Wal -Mart. They launched it because it is a responsibility … regardless of its formulation.”
What happens after that?
According to a Walmart spokesman, the employer asked Davis to return to work with Back Pay. It is not known whether Davis will accept the offer and return to the former employer.
