Oberlin College finalizes $36,600,000 payment to bakery it defamed as ‘racist’

Gibson’s Family bakery has received its $36.6 million damages payment from Oberlin College after the liberal school in Ohio worked with students to protest and smear the small business as racist.

“We can confirm that all funds have been disbursed and that the family is continuing with the process of rebuilding Gibson’s Bakery for the next generations,” family attorney Brandon McHugh told WKYC.com.

The college owed an additional $11 million in interest on the judgment, leading to a total of about $36.6 million.
