Bakery fires workers after refusing to serve black woman after store was closed

Quote:

Two employees of a Portland bakery were fired earlier this month for refusing to serve a woman who came in after closing time. The woman claims they refused to serve her because she is black, ABC 30 reports. Back to Eden Bakery released an assortment of public apologies after the incident, and then fired the two employees. In a Facebook post, the bakery said they are doing business in a "gentrified neighborhood in a racist city within a racist state of a racist country." In a statement, Back to Eden Bakery stated that according to its own surveillance, a black woman named "Lillian" entered the business at 9:06 p.m. — six minutes after the bakery's closing time.
