Starbucks CEO Kevin Johnson announced Monday that the company will add training for managers on "unconscious bias," following the arrest of two black men at a store in Philadelphia. Last Thursday, police were called by an employee, who said the men were trespassing. Officials have said the officers were told the men asked to use the restroom, but were told they couldn't because they hadn't purchased anything, and then refused to leave.
