“I won’t be back and tell your CEO” is a good response

Ask your CEO why he doesn’t hire black people, and why are there NO Starbucks in black neighborhoods?

My Dunkin Donuts is staffed entirely by Black People and they do not infringe upon my 1st, 2nd, or 5th Amendment Rights!

And they like my dawg too.

Step 1, make sure everyone in the area is of the same race.

Order one tall black coffee, hold the racist white cream. All the while the corporatist, sanctimonious hypocrites at Starbucks getting rich off your evil dollars for the liquid burnt java. All hail lieberalism.

“No” is a bit of an exaggeration

I'm pretty sure there are some in Baldwin Park and other similar affluent black ares.

Good for you. It is ostensible that Starbucks doesn’t hire black people.

Why do you have a WHITE woman as your symbol? Are you saying black women are ugly? That they need to stay in the back of the bus while pretty, rich W-H-I-T-E women are in the front enjoying their privilege?

As an aside, I looked on the Starbuck’s store locator on their website and there are absolutely no Starbucks in the black areas of my city.

If you ever drive through BP, it might be interesting to check on it.

A bunch of other FReepers have posted the same thing.

It's been awhile since I've been over that way.

Never knew anybody who lived there. In-laws and acquaintances acquaintances were all in South Central and Long Beach.

And now, don't go down to L.A. at all except on rare occasions — when there is no choice.
