1Opinion of the Court

ILANA DIAMOND ROVNER, Circuit Judge.

After his discharge from PPG Industries, Inc. (“PPG”), Ronald Robinson brought suit under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 626(c) (“ADEA”), alleging that he was discharged based on his age. The district court granted summary judgment in favor of PPG, concluding that Robinson had not identified evidence from which a finder of fact could reasonably conclude that PPG’s proffered reasons for discharging him were pretextual. We reverse and remand for trial.
