Remember to boost all footage you see of protests. Absolutely all of it. If there's the perception of protests, there will be more protests. Cover everyone's phone screens with it. It's a call to action

Starbucks workers in LA are being forced to work in areas impacted by the recent wildfires - even where the air quality is unsafe. Management told partners that stores must open because “the community depends on us,” ignoring that some workers had to evacuate their own homes.
