    Any such reference to skin color is discrimination under the law (race, color, religion, etc.)

    You can pretty much ask anything that you wish as long as it pertains to the FACTS of your case.

    I suggest that you read through the following:
    http://www.eeoc.gov/mediate/index.html

    I agree with sticking to questions that relate to the facts of the case. What part of the EEOC process are you in? Is it the initial mediation (before an investigation by the EEOC) or conciliation (after the investigation)? Have both sides agreed to try mediation? Neither side is required to do so.

    Without knowing more details, it is very hard to tell you what questions to ask. All I can suggest is seeking the advice of a local attorney so that they can have the details and give you some idea on where to go with your questions/side of the complaint.

    EEOC mediation is not designed to discuss the facts of your case. It's designed to allow the parties to discuss how to resolve the complaint. Nonetheless, if you've got questions about what is allowed during the mediation session, you need to ask the EEOC staffer who is handling your mediation.
