In 1973, Donald Trump was sued by the Department of Justice. This was due to racial discrimination. During the 1970s, a test was conducted in which a black woman walked into Trump’s apartment complex and asked the manager about the availability of their apartments. The manager said that none were available, but when a white woman entered the office of the complex shortly after the black woman, this woman was shown availability with a couple of apartments. Donald Trump denied the allegations and settled out of court.

Most likely, Trump did not admit to any guilt in the matter and was told to turn in the apartments that were available each week to the organization responsible in New York for African Americans for the next couple of years.
