When Carlie Alaniz applied to the Roots Markets open marketplace to sell her custom designed flower pots and started selling her wares over the Mothers' Day weekend, she had no idea how the markets' owners truly felt about the LGBTQ+ community.
Carlie Alaniz, owner of The Lucky Pot Co. in Fort Worth, planned to sell these LGBTQ+ pride flag-themed flower pots at the Roots Market until the market's owners rescinded their invitation.When Carlie Alaniz applied to the Roots Markets open marketplace to sell her custom-designed flower pots over Mother's Day weekend, she made plans to return as a vendor at its next event.
Roots Market emailed Carlie Alaniz on Wednesday taking back their approval to sell her products because"we do not have the same views at LGBTQ+.
One neighbor who attends the market, Katherine Hope, shared a screenshot of Alaniz's story with Roots Markets' email on her Facebook, and her post was shared over 160 times. "Had they just been upfront about it, I didn't get the vibe that they had those views and didn't want to work or LGBTQ+ people" Alaniz says."All of this could've been avoided had you just been upfront. When I came across this market and applied and saw that that was your viewpoint, yeah I would've been upset or mad but I never would've applied and told about your market to other people.
