When it was taken: The picture was taken around 12:30 p.m. Sunday, when Khalif announced that the crowd of protesters would be moving inside the store. The store was open for business at the time, and one or two customers inside decided to leave. “Today, this space is now secure, secured by the people,” Khalif said through the bullhorn inside the store.

What was happening: Bryant said his wide-angle lens makes it look as though Khalif is yelling directly at the employee, but that’s not the case. Khalif addressed the entire crowd and spoke with Starbucks regional vice president Camille Hymes during the protest. Bryant said the event was rather quiet; conversations were held. There was no screaming or yelling.

What the photographer was thinking: “When I shot the photograph, I did not think at all about Zack [the Starbucks employee] being white,” he said. “I thought of him being a corporate representative of Starbucks. [It had] nothing to do with his race.”

Who the Starbucks worker is: The Starbucks employee is named Zack, according to his apron. Some on social media have falsely identified Zack as the manager who placed the 911 call resulting in the arrest of the two men. Zack was not that manager, a spokesperson for Starbucks confirmed Tuesday.

What Bryant says about the viral photo: “To me, [the photo] is basically what America’s about — it’s a chance to right a wrong,” Bryant said. “If you have a problem with something, you go to the corporation or person or whatever and basically state your opinion.”
