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

BVF 11-21-2003 02:02 PM

The people who BUY Abercrombie and Fitch are overwhelmengly white...so what is the problem?

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?

No shit. Preppy fags wear that crap. Black man should be glad they won't hire him.

Metalgoddess 11-21-2003 02:05 PM

Think you forgot about Kirby Puckett, urkel and that dude carlton from fresh prince.

stevecore 11-21-2003 02:14 PM

does this mean i can sue FUBU, Phat Farm, Ecko, Sean Jean, GUnit, Cross Colors, etc. for being overwhemingly black?

Tera 11-21-2003 02:14 PM

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.

Rochard 11-21-2003 02:16 PM

Down with whitey!

stevecore 11-21-2003 02:17 PM

i'm going to go find a golf shop to sue.

CDSmith 11-21-2003 02:18 PM

The miss black America pageant must be sued as well, for being overwhelmingly black.

nofx 11-21-2003 02:19 PM

a&f sucks, i'd never buy anything from them.

FATPad 11-21-2003 02:20 PM

I'm suing the NBA for being overwhelmingly black.

stevecore 11-21-2003 02:22 PM

i'm going to sue taco bell for being overwhemingly latin.

Heavenly is a ski resort in South Lake Tahoe in California and partly in Nevada

Why 11-21-2003 02:35 PM

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

liquidmoe 11-21-2003 02:43 PM

It's funny one of my friends actually works at a A&F, he's a musician first but hey something has to pay the bills right. Anyway hes Indian :thumbsup

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

MetaMan 11-21-2003 02:54 PM

crack dealers should be sued for being overwhelmingly black.

SENSEX 11-21-2003 02:57 PM

does this mean I can sue PHAT FARM for being "overwhelmingly black"????
PHAT FARM

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.

sickkittens 11-21-2003 03:23 PM

Isn't FUBU - For Us By Us?

sickkittens 11-21-2003 03:25 PM

NBA is overwhelmingly black. Class action anyone?

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 :)

FuckFind 11-21-2003 03:53 PM

Actually I really should of rephrased my previous comments...

"a few friends were fired"


actually it was a few of my girlfriend's friends, who are actually ugly, should never worked there in the first place...know your role!


:thumbsup
