According to. Gonzalez, Moran directed her to engage in certain actions that, in Gonzalez’s view, violated the anti-discrimination laws that apply to public housing programs.2 For example, Moran complained when Gonzalez attempted to place a white woman with a black child in a vacant apartment, and Moran told Gonzalez that she did not want a black person placed in a vacant elderly housing unit.3 Moran’s efforts to force Gonzalez to discriminate were a central cause of the arguments that arose between Gonzalez and Moran.4 Finally, during August and September 1995, Gonzalez “eonfront[ed]” Moran about the fact that Moran wanted Gonzalez to take certain actions that violated the rules and regulations of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”).5 These confrontations concerned, inter alia, Moran’s desire to discriminate against specific potential tenants: two white women with black children and an elderly black man.6
