Remember this story but didn't know(remember) it played out like this :why:


Rashon Nelson and Donte Robinson chose not to pursue a lawsuit against the city, Mike Dunn, a spokesman for the city of Philadelphia, told The Washington Post. Instead, they agreed to a symbolic payment of $1 each and asked the city to fund $200,000 for a grant program for high school students aspiring to become entrepreneurs.

Nelson and Robinson appeared on Good Morning America Thursday morning to talk about the settlement and their goals for the grant and Starbucks moving forward. Robinson said he and Nelson would take part in the company’s racial bias training and work with former Attorney General Eric Holder, who is involved in shaping the May 29 curriculum and other long-term initiatives.

:why::why: Could've got the bag and part of the agreement is implement that as well. But then, :beli::hhh::sitdown: goes on to cash out $25 milly

y'all really believe they took a dollar lol
-Unless you have proof otherwise, yes. They wouldn't be the first dummies to settle for some symbolic W when they could've done that & got paid. I'm trying to convince a breh right now to sue for unlawful termination on racial grounds & he's acting like he's fine with the superficial W he has now with them just apologizing.

I won’t come down on them because sadly, our elders (speaking strictly from a Ados perspective) to be above our counterparts, to forgive, and all that other shyt. Cac on the the other hand rolled the dice and hit 7.

Hopefully this is a lesson (unlikely but the operative word is hope) for all the fam out there. This is a simulation and sadly, moral victories are meaningless.

Peace

Less than a month after the arrests, Phillips was notified of her termination, despite claiming that she wasn't at the store that day and was not involved in the arrests in any way.

During the trial, key testimony came from a Black district manager at Starbucks who testified via Zoom that he thought Phillips' race played into Starbucks' decision to fire her and that his race was a reason why he was not terminated, according to a statement provided to ABC News from Phillips' attorney.

Phillips' attorney also told "GMA," "Starbucks chose not to terminate the District Manager of the store where the arrests took place, who was Black, but instead terminated his White supervisor, Ms. Phillips."
Get fired on your day off brehs :dead:

This sounds like a different white person than who the tweet is referring to (the person who actually called the police)

And this person lost a job, which opens up doors to all type of grievances and disputes. These brothas probably could've gotten a bigger check, but they weren't getting close to $25 million. Completely different circumstances.
