The American Civil Rights Project (ACR) is filing a lawsuit against Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz and the company’s directors
ACR argues that Starbucks discriminates against white applicants in its hiring practices by prioritizing a “diverse” workforce which violates both state and federal laws
“Clearly, Starbucks wants to hire and promote people on the basis of their race and ethnicity rather than according to merit and achievement,” Scott Shepard, director of NCPPR’s Free Enterprise Project, told the DCNF. “This violates the Constitution and civil rights laws, so it has developed this system to try to skirt those laws.”
“Their flagrant violations of long-established corporate law and long-established civil rights law open them up a great deal of additional litigation in which shareholders will bear the consequences,” ACR Project Executive Director Dan Morenoff told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “Since most of corporate America seems to have decided the law doesn’t apply to them, they need to be reminded that it does.”
Starbucks also offers mentoring programs exclusively for ‘BIPOC’ employees and states that 48.2% of its workers are BIPOC on its website.
