I'M SURE MANY OF YOU WATCHED THE RECENT TAPING OF
THE OPRAH WINFREY SHOW 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 HE'D KNOWN AFRICAN-AMERICANS,
HISPANICS, AND ASIANS WOULD BUY HIS CLOTHES HE WOULD
NOT HAVE MADE THEM SO NICE. HE WISHES THESE PEOPLE
WOULD *NOT* BUY HIS CLOTHES, AS THEY ARE MADE FOR
UPPER CLASS WHITE PEOPLE. HIS ANSWER TO OPRAH WAS A
SIMPLE "YES". WHEREAFTER SHE IMMEDIATELY ASKED HIM
TO LEAVE HER SHOW.
MY SUGGESTION? LETS GIVE HIM WHAT HE HAS ASKED FOR.
LETS NOT BUY HIS CLOTHES!!!!! LETS PUT HIM IN A FINANCIAL
STATE WHERE HE HIMSELF WILL NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD THE
RIDICULOUS PRICES HE PUTS ON HIS CLOTHES.
PLEASE SEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO SPENDS THEIR HARD
EARNED MONEY ON CLOTHES MADE BY SOMEONE WHO DOES
NOT RESPECT THEM AS A PERSON OR A PEOPLE!!!!!
