In an internal memo, the company said that wearing BLM attire could 'amply divisiveness' among customers.
Starbucks said that Black Lives Matter clothing does not adhere to their dress code policy, which bans pins expressing any political, religious or personal affiliations — even though several employees said that clothing and pins celebrating LGBTQIA+ rights and marriage equality were previously handed out to them.
Not only that, but elsewhere in the memo, Zing Shaw — Starbucks Vice President for Inclusion and Diversity — said that wearing Black Lives Matter attire could"amply divisiveness" among customers, before referring to a since-deleted video of Shaw talking about the ban. According to the outlet, a Starbucks spokesperson has since said that while the company supports ending systemic racism, the policy is in place"to create a safe and welcoming" environment for customers and staff."
"[There] are agitators who misconstrue the fundamental principles of the Black Lives Matter movement," the memo also stated."And in certain circumstances intentionally repurpose them to amplify decisiveness."of the coffee chain — and Black employees. As Atlanta-based barista Calvin Benson told"My skin color incites violence at Starbucks. Should I not come to work?" he asked."It is silencing and Starbucks is complicit.
