A new consultant report calls for Starbucks to check staff diversity, improve training, and work with local police to reduce racial bias against some customers. The consultants were hired after an infamous racial incident in Philadelphia, where two black entrepreneurs who arrived early for a meeting with the real estate broker were arrested by local police after a manager requested assistance with the two black “trespassers” because they refused to buy an item while they waited.
This incident sparked widespread outrage, as it was widely acknowledged that Starbucks seemed to have one policy for white customers vis-a-vis using facilities without purchases and those of color. They company shut down all stores recently for a day or racial sensitivity training, but the latest consultant report recommends even more policy and training changes moving forward.
A key change suggested by the consultant report is for Starbucks to ““make clear in company policy that law enforcement should only be called to address criminal activity or threats to public safety.”
