David, a Hispanic employee at Bluerock Tire Manufacturing Company, contacted the plant manager to inform him that his supervisor, Bill, treated him in a bad manner simply because he was Hispanic. After Bill learned that David had complained, Bill told other supervisors that David was lazy and irresponsible, and he made jokes about David's accent. Which of the following holds true in this scenario?

A) Bluerock Tire Manufacturing Company will not be liable because it is a personal problem between David and Bill.

B) David has been a victim of discrimination based on race, and thus he has a valid racial harassment claim against the employer.

C) David can file a disparate impact claim against Bluerock Tire Manufacturing Company under 42 U. S. C. section 1983.

D) Bluerock Tire Manufacturing Company is not liable because David was not actually harmed.
