TikToker Aly Nicoletta puts Walmart on blast for only putting security tags on the darker shades of makeup.

In 2018, a woman named Essie Grundy filed a federal lawsuit against Walmart. She said that several times at her local store in Perris, California, she observed that “the hair and body products meant for African-Americans had been locked away behind glass shelves, segregated from products for non African-Americans.”

At the time, Walmart pushed back against the assertion, saying that there was no specific category for “African-American products” and that it applies “enhanced security measures” for any product that has high rates of theft — including items such as razors and batteries. The case was dismissed last year.

In June 2020, three major chains have announced plans to stop locking up beauty and hair care products aimed at black women and other customers “from diverse backgrounds.” The companies — Walmart, Walgreens and CVS — made their plans known in separate statements shared with NPR on Friday.

But this video proves that security tags are still discriminatory at Walmart. I say, if you want to secure some, you got to secure them all. What do you think? Sound off in the comments below and don’t forget to subscribe by hitting my face on the right hand side.
