FLAUM, Circuit Judge.

Evelyn Jones, a black female, filed a claim against Merchants National Bank (“MNB”) alleging it discriminated against her on account of her race in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1981. Specifically, she alleged that MNB discriminatorily denied her promotions, pay increases, and management training classes. In addition, Jones claimed that MNB paid her less than white employees for the same job and that her superiors racially and sexually harassed her. The district court granted MNB’s motion for summary judgment and Jones appealed. We affirm.
