Sept 17 (Reuters) - Starbucks (SBUX.O), opens new tab agreed on Thursday to settle a discrimination lawsuit by the state of Florida, pledging not to adopt race- or sex-based quotas or preferences in hiring, promotion and pay decisions. Starbucks and Florida's Republican Attorney General James Uthmeier jointly announced the settlement of a lawsuit filed by the state last December. Florida accused the company of violating state anti-discrimination law, including by setting racial quotas and tying executive compensation to meeting diversity goals. Starbucks denied wrongdoing and said in a statement it would focus "on offering great jobs and career opportunities to our partners who wear the green apron." Under the settlement, Starbucks agreed to comply with Florida law, pay $1 million to the Florida Department of Legal Affairs to cover litigation costs, and submit annual certifications of compliance for four years. The company also will not participate in any organizations that require increasing the racial diversity of its board of directors.

Well but will the diversity hires who now hire others be fair minded and hire ones who are not in the lib pool types.
In the early 1980s there was a show called Battlestar Galactica. One of the characters Starbuck was put into a prison for first sinners, that is, people who were the first to commit the sin. One of the women in the prison asked him what the sin of Starbucking was. Now we know it is DEI!
As a guy, I would love to put on some high heels and a dress, interview with Starbutts, and then show up for the first day of work with a MAGA hat, blue jeans, and a plaid shirt.
Let’s put their diveerrrrrrrrsity to the test.
“The company also will not participate in any organizations that require increasing the racial diversity of its board of directors”...That would mean Blackrock or any large bank/finance company
If they settled, I take it that means their policies were illegal.
