Whatever you do, do not sign anything without running it by a lawyer.
Sounds like something to use in leveraging a good walk away package. Also, an employment lawyer could advise you whether such information could be introduced in your case were you to go down that path.Thanks, everybody, for the thoughtful replies.
A quick update: In the last 48 hours, I have found out that the top official at the organization in question has been sued for gender and age discrimination before, at a previous job in another state. Best I can tell, the allegations against the employer were dismissed but the allegations against the individual in question were not. The case might still be active -- I need to check. The allegations are concerning -- that the official encouraged employees to make complaints about the employee in question, which ultimately led to his firing. He, like me, is a male in his 50s.
It was at another nonprofit. This is my first nonprofit experience. I have nearly 30 years of prior experience in for-profit and government. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd encounter the worst behavior in the nonprofit sector. Live and learn.

My own experience with non-profit organizations is that many of their employees fail to live up to the ideals they espouse when asking for donations. This is borne out by the occasional news headline.
Hi all,
So ... do I fight a firing or just move on? I'd really appreciate thoughts from those who have been in similar situations.
Thanks.
By my count, out of the last 10 hires or promotions for full-time non-contract positions, one has been a white male. He is around 50. One other male has been hired, an early 30s African-American man.
Eight women have been hired or promoted. Two of them are persons of color. Best I can tell, three of the women are in their 40s. None is in her 50s, 60s, etc., best I can tell of course."
