Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

I am a former employee of a NY mortgage company. My employer owes me $38,000 in unpaid commissions, and refuses to pay me. My Employee agreement states that I cannot take my employer to court. Any disagreements must be resolved by an arbitrator. Can I post derogatory statements on online (social media, websites, etc) legally? Do I have another recourse to collect my money from this employer?
