The coffee giant had been taking heat for not allowing employees to show support for the movement.
Starbucks baristas will be allowed to wear symbols supporting the Black Lives Matter movement in a hasty about-face in company policy announced Friday.
The memo went on to say employees could not wear buttons or pins when they “interfere with safety or threatens to harm customer relations or otherwise unreasonably interferes with Starbucks public image." It referred to its policy banning buttons or pins that"advocate a political, religious or personal issue."
"Our partners told us that they need a way to express themselves at work and we heard them," Starbucks tweeted on Friday."They may now wear Black Lives Matter t-shirts, pins and name tags." Story continues"We will not be bystanders. This has never been more true than today," according to the statement."We see you. We hear you. Black Lives Matter. That is a fact and will never change."
