Yes, something is wrong. It sounds as if you are describing discrimination based upon race. You should start by filing a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the State DEpartment of Labor and seek legal help. Making complaints and being fired could fall under the whistleblowers law. Good luck.
