Editorial | Brooklyn coffee shop’s snub of Congress member shows politics boiling over in NYC
A Brooklyn coffee shop, Poetica Coffee, publicly rejected Congressman Dan Goldman's payment for coffee due to his support for Israel, prompting a U.S. Justice Department investigation and a protest by a pro-Israel group. The editorial argues that businesses should serve all customers regardless of political beliefs to avoid community division.
