Starbucks said it

[skyraider]

On the afternoon of Thursday, May 29, nearly 175,000 Starbucks employees from 8,000 stores and those working in the corporate office will go through training “designed to address implicit bias, promote conscious inclusion, prevent discrimination and ensure everyone inside a Starbucks store feels safe and welcome.”

The company said the curriculum will involve experts including, Bryan Stevenson, founder and executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative; Sherrilyn Ifill, president and director-counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund; Heather McGhee, president of Demos; former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder; and Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League.

Going forward, this training will now be part of the company’s onboarding process for new hires.

Actually, she was a "radical SJW feminist of the highest order" who's beanie-hat is more SJW pins than hat, who annoyed employees and customers more than once correcting employee's misuse of gender neutral pronouns, who managed that location, which has a 60% black customer frequency, for more than 2 years, without a single racial incident on her record.

Oh,and she's Asian.

She is still a racist. Remember even in the 30 and 50s and even today the most racists folk are found in the north.. as much as the poor confederate flag carrying fellow in the carolinas

Nothing"s changed. The government is just protecting different racists. It's more subtle now, but we still have legislated institutional racism.

Starbucks, overpriced stuff for snobs who require name recognition. Other places make better coffee for a fraction of the price. They don't feed the inner snob though.

Death by age is getting rid the old morons who thought hanging other humans was cool

Racism is direct evolvement of tribalism and preservation of the group. Not 400 years, but more like 2.5 million years, and in reality dating back about 14 million years.

You've been playing around the edges of it in the thread up until now, but that post is full-on troll. I've lost count as to how many times you've been warned about it, and then said you wouldn't do it again, so I won't bother to try.

All I know is, the next post that can be construed as trolling will be your last post for a while.

 

[Kip life]

You have been doing the same turtle your responses are classical defense of institutional racism you don't see if but it's exactly the stuff that every other racist out there does subconsciously mostly the MAGA crowd.

Difference is you have admin powers , I don't and can throw around your 'power'

Look man, it's not like life ends or starts with been able post here.. nope. Feel free.

I however agree with you , racism has been around since the beginning of time 14 million years ago..and the difference now is that the majority racist ,have lost their power, and clutching straws of the good old days which ,will never come back
