So I came across this crazy article about Tesla screwing over a black-owned bakery for their Black History Month order. Basically, this bakery called Slice of Heaven in Minnesota got a huge order from Tesla for $16,000 worth of pastries and cakes to celebrate Black History Month.
But here’s the kicker - Tesla never paid them! The bakery owner said they delivered everything on time, but Tesla just ghosted them when it came time to cough up the dough. And get this, when they tried to contact Tesla to get their money, they were met with radio silence. Not cool, right?
It’s really messed up how a big company like Tesla can just stiff a small business like that. It’s a reminder of how important it is to support black-owned businesses, especially during Black History Month. They deserve respect and recognition, not to be taken advantage of.
This whole situation just goes to show that even in 2021, racial disparities and injustices are still very much a reality. It’s important to hold companies like Tesla accountable for their actions and support black-owned businesses in any way we can. Let’s make sure we stand up for what’s right and spread awareness about issues like this.
