You mean if you negotiate a settlement with the employer whereby you accept money but agree that you will no longer work with that employer, is it "

Based on your post, I see nothing illegal done. All employees don't have to be treated the same. You just can't be discriminated against due to a reason

If he's asking about a TV show he is

Your husband can have an attorney review the facts to see if they constitute a viable case against the employer and/or the individuals making the allegations. A plaintiff-side employment lawyer will typically give a free
consultation.

If you think you are receiving
disparate treatment solely because of your race or national origin, you can file a claim with the EEOC or the state equivalent.
Just to make sure, how many employees, in total, does this employer have?
