RACISM > I am sure many of you watched the recent taping of the Oprah Winfrey show > in > Chicago where her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On the show, she asked him if > the statements about race he was accused of saying were true > Statements like "if I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish 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 (my clothes) are made for > upper-class white people." His answer to Oprah was a simple "YES" where > after she immediately asked him to leave her show. > Suggestion? Don't buy your next shirt or perfume from Tommy Hilfiger. > Let's > give him what he asked for. Let's not buy his clothes, let's put him in a > financial state where he himself will not be able to afford the ridiculous > prices he puts on his clothes. If we are small, then send it to the whole > community that's not white people and see the result. We! have to see the > result of unity. Let's find out if Asian, Jews and Non-white really plays > such a small part in the world. Stop buying all range of Hilfiger > products, > perfume, cosmetics, Clothes, bags, etc. > A scene also took place on a BA (British Airway) flight between > Johannesburg and London. A white woman, about 50 years old, was seated > next > to a black man. Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess. > "Madam, what is the matter?" the hostess asked. "You obviously do not see > it > then?" She responded. "You placed me next to a black man. I do not agree > to > sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative > seat." "Be calm please," the hostess replied. "Almost all the places on > this > flight are taken. I will go to see if another place is available." The > hostess went away and then came back a few minutes later. > "Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in the > economy > class. I spoke to the captain and he informed me that there is one seat in > the business class. All the same, we also have one seat in the first > class." > Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued: "It is unusual > for our company to permit someone from the economy class to sit in the > first > class. However, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would > be > scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting." > She then turned to the black guy, and said, "Therefore, sir, if you would > like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in first > class." > At the moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just > witnessed stood up and applauded. This is a true story. IF you are against > racism, please send this message to all your friends; please do not delete > it without sending it to at least one person. >__._,_.___ Messages in this topic <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aksek_tarakanita/message/139051;_ylc=X3oD MTM4MDI2cDZrBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzExNzU0NDcEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNjAwOTQ2NTkw BG1zZ0lkAzEzOTA1MQRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawN2dHBjBHN0aW1lAzExNTI3ODQwMzUEdHBjSWQD MTM5MDUx> (1) Reply (via web post) <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aksek_tarakanita/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJybzF1cm l1BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzExNzU0NDcEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNjAwOTQ2NTkwBG1zZ0lkAz EzOTA1MQRzZWMDZnRyBHNsawNycGx5BHN0aW1lAzExNTI3ODQwMzU-?act=reply&message Num=139051> | Start a new topic <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aksek_tarakanita/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJlZHBuNz Q1BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzExNzU0NDcEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNjAwOTQ2NTkwBHNlYwNmdH IEc2xrA250cGMEc3RpbWUDMTE1Mjc4NDAzNQ--> Messages <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/aksek_tarakanita/messages;_ylc=X3oDMTJldX BwMzl2BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzExNzU0NDcEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNjAwOTQ2NTkwBHNlYw NmdHIEc2xrA21zZ3MEc3RpbWUDMTE1Mjc4NDAzNQ--> Yahoo!
