A group of employees lead by Nabretta Hardin (center) protest for union rights outside of the Poplar Avenue Starbucks Dec. 16, 2022. In August 2022, using the two-prong test, U.S. District Judge Sheryl Lipman in Memphis ordered Starbucks to take the workers back; rescind unlawful discipline issued to one of the workers, post the court’s order in the store and cease unlawful activity.
