TWO TRUE STORIES ABOUT RACISM

1) I'm sure many of you watched the recent taping of the Oprah Winfrey Show. . s0 Y8 x2 {9 G) k

Her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On the show, she asked him if 4 x- r+ _" \' L4 O9 c: I
the statements about race he was accused of saying were true.
. I* ^; O# x( r. x2 b' P! o, XStatements like'... 'If I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish 4 b; z4 u! e) \! T6 V' X
and Asians would buy my clothes, I WOULD NOT have made them so nice. I wish these people would *NOT* buy my clothes, as they are made for upper class white people ' 0 K, I8 I- ]0 `$ D, l
5 `0 N. v* V$ E0 _# d9 [9 D1 ~3 GHis answer to Oprah was a simple ' YES' . - a% S) B0 @* L1 y& ^, z- u1 J' D5 B
Whereafter she immediately asked him to leave her show
1 y" j* o; e( _9 e+ }" i5 T- c
2 b% l4 M6 L4 ?& K6 T/ r1 gMy suggestion? Don't buy your next shirt or perfume from Tommy Hilfiger. % L% k6 f1 y, g% W' x( ~
Let's give him what he asked for. Let's not buy his clothes, let's put - o1 K6 n# q+ f1 R5 ^& B O- @
Him in a financial state where he himself will not be able to afford the

PLEASE SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ANYONE YOU KNOW..

A White woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man.

All the same, we still have one place in the first class.' Before the woman

turned to the black guy, and said, 'Therefore, Sir, if you would like to,
