Ferguson, who is Black, tells the community newspaper that he was suspended from the co-op following a situation in 2017 in which another member complained about Ferguson’s choice of music while he was working as shift manager. The complaint went in front of the co-op’s “Dispute Resolution Squad,” where another member “backed up the complaint, and took issue with Ferguson’s joyous attitude,” according to the report. Ferguson was eventually suspended over the situation without access to an internal hearing, he says, in a move that goes against the co-op’s disciplinary guidelines.
