#Muslim woman gets ‘ISIS’-labeled Starbucks drink

#Muslim woman gets ‘ISIS’-labeled Starbucks drink

July 8, 2020 | 6:31pm

A Muslim woman in Minnesota said a Starbucks employee wrote the word “ISIS” on her coffee cup after she ordered the drink, according to a report.

The woman, identified by CNN only as Aishah, told the network she received the offensively labeled drink when she ordered a coffee from a Starbucks that’s inside a Target in St. Paul.

When Aishah went to tell the employee her name, the barista scribbled something on the side of the cup before she could finish, according to the report.

The employee then handed her the drink, which had the word “ISIS” — an abbreviation for the Islamic State terrorist group — written on it in black marker, CNN reported.

“The moment I saw it, I was overwhelmed with a lot of emotions,” Aishah told the network.

“I felt belittled and so humiliated. This is a word that shatters the Muslim reputation all over the world. I cannot believe that in this day and age, something like this can be considered acceptable. It isn’t OK,” she added.

The state’s Council on American-Islamic Relations is now calling for all staff involved in the incident to be fired from the shop.

A spokesperson for Target, which operates the Starbucks store, told CNN the labeling was “an unfortunate mistake.”

“We have investigated the matter and believe that it was not a deliberate act but an unfortunate mistake that could have been avoided with more clarification. We’re taking appropriate actions with the team member, including additional training, to ensure this does not occur again,” they said in a statement.
