Starbucks drops Jewish group from bias training

49. They have lots of experience - just not any experience doing anti-racism training related to

bias against African-Americans. That's not a knock on them. It's just a fact that everybody doesn't do everything.

I would have the same objections if the Southern Christian Leadership Conference or National Urban League were sent in to handle training against anti-semitic bias. Not their wheelhouse.

The ADL is still involved in the Starbucks issue and will be working alongside numerous other anti-bias groups of all backgrounds to address all manner of discrimination. But having them conduct THIS particular training, the first one, that is intended to respond to a case of clear anti-black bias - even if you think the "motivations" clear - was misguided. And now it's been corrected.

But since everyone involved seems to be perfectly content with this development - including the ADL itself - why are you still making a big deal about it?
