Abercrombie & Fitch Hit with Class Action for being "Overwhelmingly White"

11-21-2003, 11:57 AM

http://biz.yahoo.com/law/031120/9960...8c8e577_1.html

Preppie sportswear retailer Abercrombie & Fitch was hit with a nationwide class action race discrimination lawsuit on Wednesday by a team of Philadelphia lawyers who say the sales force in its 600-plus stores is "overwhelmingly white."

Umm so..... I think the only colored people who would wear the shit are brynt gumble and the select few black republicans. So its not like its gunna upset its shoppers, and if there are no ethnic shoppers odds are none picked up an application in the first place.

Then again I suppose the Fubu people have tons of whites working too huh?

I can see Carlton wearing that stuff, when I worked at Heavenly he used to come in and drop his kids off at the ski school where I worked. He is just like he is portrayed in that show, but, a total jerk most of the time, he always asks people do you recognize me or drops hints of who he is and is just a jerk all the way around.

what the fuck is wrong with it?

equal opportuniy employment is a joke, ill hire who ever the fuck i want to work at my stores. if america doesnt like it, they can kiss my fuckign ass.

and if A&F is so bad for being all white.... should we not sue the rap industry for being "overwhelmingly black"?

or maybe sue BET for being "black based" entertainment.

these mother fuckers really need to get a life

Exactly. You don't see many whites working at Tonefu's Dew Rags or Popeye's Chicken in South Central.

If I started a new TV channel called WET, am i racist? prally.

BET "Black Entertainment Television" (totally justified, huh)

WET "White Entertainment Television" (totally racist, huh)

-would be off the air in 30 minutes and i'd be called a racist for life. But this is the circle, so there is no grounds for suing "overwhelmingly white" Abercrombie/corportized, "my children have a trust fund" line of clothing.

In all honesty though, Abercrombie does discriminate. I know of a few girls who worked there who were fired cause they weren't cute enough, facts are facts.

Reminds me the Cracker Barrel cases a while back about equal opportunity employment because they wouldn't hire gays, southerns freaked out about gays in the early 90s and wouldn't order from a homosexual.

Past predicts future.

I very rarely have a not-good looking waiter or waitress. Every "hip" store I go to has "hip" looking people. Hot Topic has a very specific employee. Hooters isn't going to hire a flat chested girl. And Playboy isn't going to shoot an ugly model. Calvin Klein won't hire models that eat more than a hamburger a week. Joe's Construction isn't going to employee a couch potato. BET isn't going to have a white, Hispanic, Asian, or Arabic anchor person.

I completely agree, but its another thing to hire someone, then fire them. Shouldn't they just NOT hire them from the start?

Maybe your friends got ugly over time? Haha.

People are hired based on an interview. If someone came in "acting" the part, they could get hired and easily revert back to normal later.

People have been using this as an example of reverse discrimination since BET came out. Always makes for a good debate.

Anyway.. In regards to this A&F suite I won't say much until I see if the moronic, ignorant fucks that are suing them win or not

discrimination is here to stay. people need to deal with it. EOE is a fucking sham, why should there be equal opportunity to begin with? people should get what they get and deal with it. employers should be able to hire whoever they want for any reason, and no hire who they dont want for any reason they see fit.

only lazy worthless fuckers whine about shit, there are hurdles in life that we all must climb over or go around, some would rather sue the fucker that put it there.

no needs to start "wet" because you all already have the majority of the major networks anyway. abc, cbs are white entertainment along with the majority of other major networks. don't think for a minute that major networks actually cater to blacks. nice try though.

Who in this thread is talking about owners? We're talking about employees, no? How many white boys are on that basketball court?

Hang on, give me a couple minutes, I need to grab a rag to wipe away the tears.
