Remove Kaldis from Webster University


Remove Kaldis from Webster University
The Issue
Kaldis is a coffee chain that has come under fire for its treatment of black employees. Kaldis coffee is the coffee that we have on the Webster University STL campus, and this petition is for anyone who is seeking the removal of Kaldis from our university, with the replacement of an ethical local coffee brand. If our university stands with racial justice, we need to stand against racist businesses and corporations. We are demanding the removal of Kaldis from our campus.
The Riverfront Times published an article articulating the "cultural racism" described by former employees. KSDK also published a story highlighting the tokenization of black employees while addressing race in an ignorant manner.
As students who go to a University that prides itself on social justice, we must have the University remove Kaldis to continue to stand in support of Black lives. Please make this change happen.
