YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Elisheva Rishon, a Black Orthodox Jewish woman, says a Staples employee in Los Angeles refused to print her postcards because they included messages about “Jewish joy” and Zionism. Rishon recorded the interaction, during which the employee called the content “racist” and declined to complete the order. She says the store manager also refused to print the cards. The employee later posted a video defending his actions, calling Zionism a racist ideology toward Arabs, but has since deleted the post and his account. Staples says it is investigating the incident and remains committed to respectful service for all customers.
