    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on the idea of implicit bias directed at African Americans in what the author calls "white spaces." Topics include an incident at a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Starbucks coffee shop in which a white employee called the police on two African Americans, the response by Starbucks chief executive officer (C.E.O.) Kevin Johnson, and the history of such racism dating back to the Civil Rights Act of 1875.
