I walked to the corner coffee shop this morning (not Starbucks) and ordered a mocha. I then asked the clerk if she could write #RaceTogether on it.

She replied that she didn’t know what I was talking about.  I smiled and said, “You know, Starbucks?”  The barista overheard me and said, “Yeah, I heard about that.  I don’t get what they were trying to do with that.”

I couldn’t help myself: “I think the goal was to lose customers.”

My encounter this morning renews my faith that there are normal people in the world who have better things to do with their time than pay attention to silly social justice campaigns.
