Unfortunately this isn't a Starbucks problem. This isn't something that can be trained for. It is the culmination of 400 years of hardcore racism pounded into the consciousness of western civilization that equates blackness with criminality, and holds us in social bondage. What you're seeing here is just a normal part of every day life for blacks in the US.
The Rastas have a word for this: Babylon. While it exists, no black person can ever be free.
