PER CURIAM.
Henry Hall appeals the district court’s1 adverse grant of summary judgment in
his employment-discrimination action. We conclude that the court properly granted
summary judgment. First, Mr. Hall failed to exhaust his administrative remedies on
his race-based hostile-work-environment claim, because his charge of discrimination
addressed only retaliation, see Bainbridge v. Loffredo Gardens, Inc., 378 F.3d 756,
760 (8th Cir. 2004); and second, Mr. Hall’s retaliation claim fails because he did not

create a trialworthy issue on whether the alleged retaliation was causally connected
to the protected activity in which he had engaged some three years earlier, see Van
Horn v. Best Buy Stores, L.P., 526 F.3d 1144, 1149 (8th Cir. 2008).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
