American Airlines Will Permit Flight Attendants To Wear BLM Pins. Some Employees Are Furious.

On Sunday, American Airlines (AA) announced flight attendants will be permitted to wear “Black Lives Matter” pins on their uniform, an announcement that engendered anger among some of its employees.

Defending the policy, the airline stated, “Clearly we live in a time where it is so important to have a dialogue about this important issue of racism in our society and try to find common ground. American is truly committed to having an inclusive culture that is welcoming to all and a reflection of our country and world.”
