Starbucks Closing May 29 For Racial Bias Training
- USA Today, Wednesday, April 18, 2018 8 AM
Starbucks will close all its U.S. company-owned stores during the afternoon of May 29 to conduct racial-bias training. The announcement follows the arrest of two African-American men at one of its Philadelphia shops last week. The anti-discrimination training is "designed to address implicit bias, promote conscious inclusion, prevent discrimination and ensure everyone inside a Starbucks store feels safe and welcome.”
