CVS is Racist

I bet you’ll still shop there though.

From SNOPES:

In some CVS stores, of all the hair care items vended there, only those marketed to African-Americans are tagged with anti-theft devices. As reported by News Channel 7 in Spartanburg, SC: “We bought hair care products from the CVS/pharmacy store in Boiling Springs. The hair relaxers for African American women have security tags. Similar, more expensive hair straighteners for Caucasian women did not” and “We bought these boxes of ‘Just Five’ hair color from the same shelf at at the CVS store on Chesnee Highway in Spartanburg. The two for African American women have security tags. The one for Caucasian women, no tag.”
