After a Black teen employee said he was sent home for a mask with the acronym "BLM," the supermarket chain said it rejects racism but doesn't allow any "non-Publix messaging."
Publix supermarkets said it won't allow workers to wear Black Lives Matter garb due to the company's prohibition against any messaging not associated with the chain's brand.
Later in the day, he tweeted:"Today @Publix sent me, a Publix employee, home for having 'BLM' written on my mask. The assistant store manager told me he doesn’t know if the company is 'Pro or Con.' I will no longer be working for publix. Stand for something or you’ll fall for anything! #blacklivesmatterFL."
In a statement sent to NBC News, Publix spokeswoman Maria Brous said the company does not accept racism, but the uniform policy will hold. "They also said they don’t want to be apart of political views. #Black Lives Matter is not political," the teen wrote."The movement is all about Equality.
