In plaintiff’s Title VII case against his employer for racial harassment, discriminatory wage, and retaliation, district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the employer is affirmed where: 1) there is no genuine issues of fact with respect to the existence of racial harassment; 2) plaintiff has failed to satisfy the fourth element regarding disparate wage treatment because he adduced no evidence that higher paid workers were similarly situated; and 3) plaintiff has failed to present evidence that he suffered an adverse employment action because he engaged in an activity protected by Title VII.
