Mitsubishi And Minorities

NPR's Jim Zarroli reports that Mitsubishi Motors committed to help raise up to $200 million for minority-owned businesses in a deal ending a dispute over alleged sexual and racial discrimination at the company. Civil Rights leader Jesse Jackson said the accord allows him to end a Mitsubishi boycott led by Jackson's Rainbow/PUSH Coalition.
