Accordingly, Esparza has failed to assert a retaliation claim based on opposition as well. CONCLUSION Esparza’s sole issue on appeal is granted in part and denied in part. The trial court erred in dismissing Esparza’s age, sex, and national origin discrimination claims.

We therefore reverse and remand Esparza’s age, sex, and national origin discrimination claims, to the extent they are not based on disparate pay. 891-92 (8th Cir.2005) (<HOLDING>); Peltier v.
