STARBUCKS…Dear Mr Schultz Your rhetoric dosent match your numbers..when 17% of your stores are in Hispanic neighbourhoods and 13 % of your stores are in black neighbourhoods you might get some credibility ..they are NOT.
Cities with NO Starbucks Stores 1,East St Louis,Illinois (98% Black) ..2.Highland Park ,Michigan (94%black) ,3.Benton Harbor,Michigan 90% Black)
4.Gary Indiana (85 %black) 5.Selma Alabama (80 % Black) 6. Baldwin Hills California (79%black) ..FERGUSON,MISSOURI (65 % BLACK)
WATTS California (37 %)Black .. Please show us by putting a STORE in FERGUSON that your RACE conversation will have a beneficial effect….Police do like to drink coffee and even Donuts ….You KNow !
You seem to have a Preacher Complex or a Moral Persuasion ,..God Complex …….Your stores are clean,your employees are polite,your products are decent ..the coffee is not the best(Dunkins is better),but its ok…
But what we don’t need is moral lectures ,race baiting with the coffee ..it diminishes from the atmosphere of a coffee Shop.
You may Pretend your leading us to the Promised Land ,but your direction is suspect…when I follow the money ..it points to the LOCAL BANK …
