D.C. Attorney General Sues Amazon Over Service Slowdown in Black Neighborhoods

Credited from: THEHILL

  • The D.C. attorney general has initiated a lawsuit against Amazon, accusing the company of intentionally delaying deliveries to two low-income, majority-Black neighborhoods.
  • Residents of ZIP codes 20019 and 20020 were reportedly receiving packages more slowly than the standard two-day shipping offered to Prime customers since 2022.
  • While Amazon acknowledges the delays, they attribute it to increased violence in these areas, not to racial discrimination.
  • Statistics indicate that Black Americans disproportionately experience violent crime, raising concerns about the historical neglect of their safety and security.
  • Public safety policies have evolved in D.C. recently, leading to decreased crime rates, highlighting the necessity of safe neighborhoods for improving social mobility.
