TWO TRUE STORIES ABOUT RACISM

1) I'm sure many of you watched the recent taping of the Oprah Winfrey Show.

Her guest was Tommy Hilfiger. On the show, she asked him if
" g1 G! V9 o+ K I: C! _the statements about race he was accused of saying were true. 3 y; I6 X* Z! [1 S0 L: U* G
Statements like'... 'If I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish

His answer to Oprah was a simple ' YES' .

My suggestion? Don't buy your next shirt or perfume from Tommy Hilfiger. $ l1 n$ q: D" W& R- Q
Let's give him what he asked for. Let's not buy his clothes, let's put

ridiculous prices he puts on his clothes. BOYCOTT.
