Well done Oprah and British Airways.

TWO TRUE STORIES ABOUT RACISM

1) 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 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 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.

My 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. BOYCOTT.
PLEASE SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ANYONE YOU KNOW..



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 Non-whites really play such a small part in
the world. Stop buying any range of their (Tommy H etc) product, perfume, cosmetics,
clothes, bags, etc.,

2) Scene took place on a British Airways 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 is taken..

I will go to see if another place is available.' The Hostess went
away and t hen 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 a seat in the business class.
All the same, we still have one place in the first class.' Before the woman
could say anything, the hostess continued: 'It is not Usual 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
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 that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded.

Both the above are true stories. 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'.

Smart answer

It was mealtime during a flight on a British Airways plane:'Would you like
dinner?' the flight attendant asked the man seated in thefront row.
'What are my choices?' the man asked.
'Yes or no,' she replied.

Mom and daughters ..honeymoon

A mother had 3 virgin daughters and they were all getting married within a short
period of time.

Mom was a bit worried about how their sex life would get started. She made them
all promise to send a postcard from the honeymoon with few words on how
marital sex felt.

The first girl sent a card from Hawaii two days after the wedding. The card said
nothing but "Nescafe":
Mom was puzzled at first, but then went to the kitchen and got out the Nescafe
jar.
It said. "Good till the last drop". Mom blushed, but was pleased for her
daughter.


The second daughter sent the card from Vermont a week after the wedding, and the
card read: "Benson & Hedges".
Mom now knew to go straight to her husbands cigarettes, and she read from the
Benson & Hedges pack:
"Extra long king-size" She was slightly embarrassed but still happy for her
daughter.


The third girl left for her honeymoon in the Caribbean. Mom waited for a week,
nothing, Another week went by and still nothing. Then after a whole month, a
card finally arrived.
Written on it with shaky handwriting were the words, "British Airways".
Mom took out her latest Harper's Bazaar magazine flipped through the pages
fearing the worst, and finally found the ad for BA.
The ad said: "Three times a day, seven days a week, both ways."

Mom fainted
