[UPDATE] Friday June 12, 11:22 AM:

Following the wide-spread backlash after their leaked memo on prohibiting Black Lives Matter apparel worn by its employees, Starbucks has now revealed a new co-designed BLM t-shirt.

Starbucks officially informed its employees in a memo last week that they would be prohibited from wearing any clothing or accessories that show that they are in support of the transformative Black Lives Matter movement.

The memo obtained by BuzzFeed News shows the dress code policy argues that staff wearing attire that highlights Black Lives Matter could be interpreted incorrectly and possibly incite violence.

On June 1, the official Starbucks Instagram and Twitter account posted statements in support of the Black Lives Matter movement.

It seems as though the popular Seattle-born coffee brand supports the Black Lives Matter movement but with an asterisk mark, *when it’s not too controversial for them.
