Jamaica Plain News reports American Legion Post 76 has agreed to pay a $15,000 fine and restitution and require staff to attend classes on public-accommodation laws after they were charged with treating a black family throwing a sweet sixteen and their guests like crap.

The AG’s Office further alleges that when an African American photographer arrived, he was stopped by the same bartender, who suggested he might be carrying a gun and required him to open his bags so they could be inspected. Throughout the night, Post 76 staff were also overheard making derogatory comments about the African American guests. Post 76 then allegedly ended the party early.
