Starbucks publicly voiced support for the Black Lives Matter movement
while it privately banned employees from wearing any BLM-related clothing
or accessories, according to a report.

The coffee giant sent out several tweets last week pledging to “stand in
solidarity with our Black partners, customers and communities.” But
offline, Starbucks was at the same time barring its baristas and other
shop employees for expressing that same support at work, according to a
memo obtained by BuzzFeed News.

The company stated that Black Lives Matters gear does not adhere to dress
code policy banning pins representing “political, religious or personal
issue[s]” — even though the chain gladly hands out LGBTQ and marriage
rights buttons to those workers, the outlet reported.

Zing Shaw, Starbucks’ vice president for inclusion and diversity, reasoned
that BLM messaging could “amply divisiveness” among customers, according
to the memo, which pointed employees to a video of Shaw explaining the
decision. The video has since been removed.

“[There] are agitators who misconstrue the fundamental principles of the
Black Lives Matter movement — and in certain circumstances intentionally
repurpose them to amplify decisiveness,” the memo explained.

Calvin Benson, a black Starbucks barista in Atlanta, told BuzzFeed that
Starbucks’ decision was “disappointing in ways I can’t express in words.”

“My skin color incites violence at Starbucks. Should I not come to work?”
he asked. “It is silencing and Starbucks is complicit. Now more than ever,
Starbucks needs to stand with us.”

Starbucks did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A company
spokesperson speaking with BuzzFeed stood behind the memo, saying it was
working to fight against “systemic racism,” but that the dress code was
defined “to create a safe and welcoming” space for customers.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.

President Trump has boosted the economy, reduced illegal immigration,
appointed dozens of judges and created jobs.

Senile loser and NAMBLA supporter Nancy Pelosi got "Trumped" on February
5, 2020. "President Trump, Not Guilty."
