Cosmetics retail chain Sephora will reportedly close all of its brick-and-mortar U.S. stores, distribution centers and corporate offices Wednesday for a company-wide diversity training program.
The closures come after R&B music artist SZA, who is black, said in April she was racially profiled by employees at a Sephora store in Southern California, according to a Reuters report.
In a post on Twitter about the incident, SZA said a Sephora employee she identified as “Sandy” called security to watch her and make sure she was not stealing.
Sephora spokesperson Emily Shapiro told Reuters that the company-wide closures of Sephora stores is not in “response to any one event.”
In addition to the company’s “inclusivity workshops” scheduled for Wednesday, Sephora is rolling out a marketing campaign called “We Belong to Something Beautiful” aimed at promoting diversity.
SZA reportedly used to work at Sephora in the skin-care department before her successful music career took off.

Yes, kind of brings a tear to the eye. Maybe it’s just me, but I’m having a bit of a hard time imagining Pavarotti singing this.
So now black shoplifters will operate with impunity at Sephora.
The lesson will be “if you suspect a minority of stealing, let them do it. Losing money to theft is cheaper than a PR nightmare.”
Don’t get me started on culture. That music sure does paint a picture doesn’t it? And it sure isn’t a pretty picture either.
Gotta go FRiend, Conway Twitty is up next!
