So what happened? Basically two black men tried to use the store's restroom without buying anything. The store manager called 911 and the two men were arrest. After a string of public protests and many boycotting the stores, Starbucks took decisive action by closing about 8,0000 stores for a day of training to educate people on unconscious bias.
In fairness, this action is in sharp contrast to how other public company's have dealt with media blow ups. I for one think this has been seriously over hyped but I'm glad to see that they are meeting the protests with action. An example of good leadership and decisive action... You will still find me at the Starbucks store tomorrow morning which for me is a haven in a criss-cross world of rush and dollar bills.
