Accord, Brown v. Gaston County Dyeing Machine Co., 457 F.2d 1377, 1379 (4th Cir.) cert. denied 409 U.S. 982 , 93 S.Ct. 319 , 34 L.Ed.2d 246 (1972). 22 While conceding the above, Boswell argues that the Plaintiff has not stated a cause of action against him under Section 1981, inasmuch as he is not in privity of contract with the Plaintiff. 23 In advancing this argument, Boswell incorrectly assumes that an individual employee of a corporate defendant cannot be held liable under Section 1981 for the same action which allegedly gives rise to corporate liability.
