Starbucks to Pay Out More Than $25 Million to Female Manager Fired for Being White

Remember that time that two loitering blacks got kicked out of a Starbucks for not buying anything?

You’ll remember that in response, Starbucks declared that all of their stores would now become homeless shelters, where blacks could just hang out, charge they phone, sell and consume drugs, and sleep. Starbucks ended up in some kind of crisis and had to close a bunch of stores, because people don’t pay $7 for a coffee so they can be berated by the homeless.

In fact, people pay the cost of Starbucks in big cities so they can get off the street where they are being assailed by homeless. Every major city is literally “irate black homeless man blocks your path.” Starbucks had stores in all these major metros, and people would duck inside these well-furnished and well-lit shops for shelter and safety, the expensive coffee being more of a fee for using the premises than the actual value of the drink.

Well, as it turns out, a court has ruled that the store manager who called the cops on the blacks after they refused to leave, triggering this whole incident, was just doing her job as she was instructed, and that she was fired for being white!

Jurors in a federal court have awarded $25.6 million to a former Starbucks regional manager who alleged that she and other white employees were unfairly punished after the high-profile arrests of two Black men at a Philadelphia location in 2018.

Shannon Phillips won $600,000 in compensatory damages and $25 million in punitive damages on Monday after a jury in New Jersey found that race was a determinative factor in Phillips’ firing, in violation of federal and state anti-discrimination.

In April 2018, a Philadelphia store manager called police on two Black men who were sitting in the coffee shop without ordering anything. Phillips, then regional manager of operations in Philadelphia, southern New Jersey, and elsewhere, was not involved with arrests. However, she said she was ordered to put a white manager who also wasn’t involved on administrative leave for reasons she knew were false, according to her lawsuit.

Phillips said she was fired less than a month later after objecting to the manager being placed on leave amid the uproar, according to her lawsuit.

The company’s rationale for suspending the district manager, who was not responsible for the store where the arrests took place, was an allegation that Black store managers were being paid less than white managers, according to the lawsuit. Phillips said that argument made no sense since district managers had no input on employee salaries.

The lawsuit alleged Starbucks was instead taking steps to “punish white employees” who worked in the area “in an effort to convince the community that it had properly responded to the incident.”

During closing arguments on Friday, Phillips’ lawyer Laura Mattiacci told jurors that the company was looking for a “sacrificial lamb” to calm the outrage and show that it was taking action, Law360 reported. Picking a Black employee for such a purpose “would have blown up in their faces,” she said.

Starbucks denied Phillips’ allegations, saying the company needed someone with a track record of “strength and resolution” during a crisis and replaced her with a regional manager who had such experience, including navigating the aftermath of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings, Law360 reported.

Here are the blacks in question:

Truly pitiful creatures. How can people so dumb ever be expected to do anything other than stink up a white people’s coffee shop? They can’t afford $7 coffees. Them niggas can’t even read.

Phillips’ attorney, however, cited earlier testimony from a Black district manager, who was responsible for the store where the arrests took place, who described Phillips as someone beloved by her peers and worked around the clock after the arrests.

In an email to The Associated Press, Mattiacci confirmed the award amount and said the judge will consider awarding back pay and future pay, as well as attorney’s fees.

In the April 2018 incident, Rashon Nelson and Donte Robinson were arrested in a Starbucks coffee shop near tony Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia shortly after the manager called police to report that two men were refusing to either make a purchase or leave the premises. They were later released without charges.

Video of the arrest prompted national outcry and led the current CEO of Starbucks to personally apologize to the men. The company later reached a settlement with both men for an undisclosed sum and an offer of free college education. The company also changed store policies and closed locations across the country for an afternoon for racial-bias training.

I would hesitate to call this “a turning of the tide.”

The jury system has never really gone along with this anti-white stuff (save in extreme cases in extreme cities, like the heinous conviction of James Fields in Charlottesville), but the jury system is a very tiny part of the system.

We’ve seen the polls. More than half of people believe that it is “morally wrong” to “change your gender.” None of that 55% believes in the racism hoax.

Ironically, the biggest hoaxsters, the biggest believers in all this goofy bullshit, are middle class white women, like the one who was fired from Starbucks. Like, you look at her face, and she is the ideal form of the supporter of BLM and child trannies.

I would be surprised if she’s learned her lesson. I’d also be surprised if she doesn’t donate some of her winnings to some kind of black organization. Maybe not. It’s not every single white woman that acts like this, it’s just that they are by far the biggest group, and the ones that are absolutely enforcing this system.

I would also add that it is likely that the fact that she was a white woman would have played a role in the jury decision. White women on the jury would have thought “this could have been me!”
