Ted, the white coach of a local high school, has been at the school as a teacher, athletic director and coach for 25 years. Over the years the neighborhood has changed from predominately white to predominately black. When a new principal is appointed, he and Ted do not get along well at all. Ted alleges that the principal took away a good deal of his authority and publicly castigated him for the football's team perfomance. Ted waits too long under Title VII for race discrimination but hears about section 1981. He wants to sue for race discrimination under section 1981 but thinks he cannot do so because he is white. Is Ted correct? Explain.
