(PD) - Eleven women who were kicked off the Napa Valley Wine Train in August — prompting the hashtag #Laughingwhileblack — have agreed to settle their racial discrimination lawsuit with the hospitality company, their attorney said Monday.

The details of the settlement remain confidential, said attorney Waukeen McCoy of San Francisco, who represents the 10 black women and one white woman who brought the lawsuit. The wine train’s owners still must agree to the settlement’s terms, he said.

“Hopefully this was a learning experience for a lot of businesses,” McCoy said.

The women’s treatment, he said, showed that many companies need to give their employees diversity and sensitivity training.

In October, the women, most of them members of an East Bay book club called Sistahs on the Reading Edge, filed an $11 million federal lawsuit claiming discrimination and defamation after they were escorted off the train at St. Helena, part way through their excursion.
