Political cartoonist Ben Garrison's take on
Starbucks' plan to hire 10,000 refugees
|
Starbucks says it will hire 10,000 refugees over the next five years, a response to President Donald Trump's indefinite suspension of Syrian refugees and temporary travel bans that apply to six other Muslim-majority nations.
However, Shariabucks' plan to hire 10,000 refugees worldwide over the next five years is sparking calls for a boycott from some people who said the company
should focus on hiring American workers.
Scott Baio, an actor and outspoken Trump
supporter, asked the chain why it wasn't focusing on hiring "unemployed Blacks, Hispanics, & Veterans."
