You stood up to a Kevin who called the manager and then got fired. Why is it that white people get away with everything and minorities always suffer the consequences? #BoycottFedEx

.@FedEx should be doing everything it can to protect its workers from this sort of racist harassment. Workers are literally putting their lives on the line during the pandemic (and quite honestly in dealing with people like this). This response is shameful. #BoycottFedEx https://t.co/W9zD1V5TAp

Essential workers risk their lives to deliver stuff to ungrateful, hostile, and often RACIST assholes.
Nobody should be fired for standing up to jerks like that. That's why I won't be using FedEx any more. #BoycottFedEx https://t.co/lcjR4WrDbM
