Rockmond Dunbar says exemption requests from non-Black '9-1-1' actors were granted and that they were provided vaccine-related accommodations. He says he has a legitimate religious objection to getting the vaccine.

20th Television in a statement rebuffed allegations of racism, saying “there are no differences in our process or decision-making based on an employee’s race.”

The lawsuit peels back some of the secrecy behind discussions between employers looking to safely proceed with productions and actors who say they should be exempted from getting the vaccine. After he was dismissed, Dunbar was allegedly told by Fox’s lawyers that his request for a religious exemption was denied because his beliefs are insincere based on the fact that he had previously received tattoos and ear piercings and an unnamed representative linked to Dunbar telling Fox that his wife threatened to divorce him if he got the vaccine.
