German Grocery Store Removes All Foreign Foods from Its Shelves to Protest Racism
When you go to a grocery store, you usually see food packed on all the shelves. But recently, shoppers at German store were in for a surprise.
For one day, shelves at the EDEKA supermarket looked like this:

The store removed all foreign foods and only sold German food to make a point on racism—people value diversity in all aspects of their lives, and the world is a better place for it.
It seemed to have been well-received by customers:
