Coffee giant Starbucks has had a lot of headaches lately. The incident of coffee causing cancer has just passed, and there has been another racial discrimination controversy.
On April 12, local time in the United States, two African-American men waited for their friends at a Starbucks in Philadelphia. Because their friends said they would treat, the two men did not order food after arriving at Starbucks first. Later, when the two wanted to use the in-store toilet, the clerk refused on the grounds that they did not spend money and asked the two to leave, but the two remained in the store. The store manager finally called the police on the grounds that the two of them were "trespassing".
The bathroom in Starbucks in the United States has a password lock, and the salesperson will tell you the password only after ordering. Because of this, the day before yesterday, two African-American men in the United States did not order and used the bathroom in the Starbucks store, which was accused by the store manager of "trespassing" and arrested by the police.
Two African men were arrested in handcuffs by the police
Six police officers were reported to have rushed to the store, surrounded two men of African descent, and failed to ask two people to leave three times, and finally arrested two people directly in handcuffs. At this time, a friend who had an appointment with two men in the store just arrived and kept asking the police, "what mistake have they made?" Many other customers who couldn't stand it said, "they didn't do anything." However, in the end, two people were still taken away by the police.

A female customer at the scene, Melissa DePino, later posted the process of two African men handcuffed by the police on Twitter, which has been viewed nearly 9 million times. Dippino revealed that the two were real estate managers and met with family and friends at Starbucks that day, but they were treated so unfairly.
On the 13th, the two men were released after Starbucks withdrew the charges. The two men were not released until the early morning of the 14th because the police had no criminal evidence.
Netizens responded angrily to the incident as "ridiculous" and "racist at all". Some netizens said that they have worked at Starbucks for many years, and the company's policy is that anyone can stay in the store, whether they order or not, as long as they do not fall asleep or disturb other customers. The incident not only caused an uproar on the social platform, but American netizens also launched a campaign to refuse to buy Starbucks. Many people even went to the door of the Starbucks store in Philadelphia where the incident occurred and raised signs to protest against racial discrimination in the store.
At 9:59 on April 14th, Starbucks tweeted to apologize for the incident. Kevin Johnson (Kevin Johnson), CEO of Starbucks, officially issued an apology on Twitter.

He said that this is not in line with the spirit and philosophy of Starbucks, and hopes to apologize to the two blacks face to face. And said Starbucks will investigate and review staff training to prevent similar incidents from happening again. Starbucks will firmly oppose discrimination or racism.
"I am saddened to see something in the Philadelphia headlines-at least as far as we know, this is clearly an incident of racial discrimination," Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney said in a statement.
It is reported that Starbucks often made headlines because of "racial discrimination" in the past. Two black men were arrested at Starbucks without ordering, but were released after Starbucks dropped the charges. The mayor issued a statement condemning, "this incident is a typical case of racial discrimination in 2018."
