Under the present circumstances, where there was direct racist invective, continued indirect invective would serve to maintain an abusive work environment, and thus both are properly enjoined. But the injunction reaches beyond the workplace, and to that extent the court went astray. Here, the wrongful act sought to be prevented is employment discrimination through racial harassment that creates an abusive work environment. Such speech will not contribute to the employment discrimination at issue here. This is plain English.
