A Puerto Rican friend of mine back in the 70’s, when “Black Power” was the buzz slogan of the day, used to reply, “Black may be beautiful, but Brown wears the crown!”........

Brown is the New Black. Now, that’s better.

I wonder if a “Kill Whitey” t-shirt would be pulled from the shelves?

>>”Macy’s doesn’t know a whole lot about what Hispanics want in the way of clothing. It also says that Macy’s doesn’t understand Hispanic culture. More importantly, it says that Macy’s doesn’t understand the Hispanics that lives in the U.S. and the kinds of products they are looking for,” Rincon said.<<
Then you would think that they would simply not buy the shirts instead of forcing Macy’s not to sell them.

"Brown is the New White," is offensive, according to Hispanic marketing expert Dr. Ed Rincon. Hey Doc, I'm always offended to see our gov't agencies list all the *brown* criminals into the white race.
Could you see about changing that ???

Brown is the New White"Maybe it would have worked better printed on underwear instead of t-shirts. ;)

"Then you would think that they would simply not buy the shirts instead of forcing Macys not to sell them."
That sounds like exactly what happened.

If you're white, all right.
If you're brown, stick around.
If you're black, get back.
Heard that a lot on the street in the 60s-70s.

"Macy's doesn't know a whole lot about what Hispanics want in the way of clothing. It also says that Macy's doesn't understand Hispanic culture. Remember the days when suggesting that all members of a minority acted the same was called "racism" or "bigotry?"
Has anyone stopped to think that hispanics like other Americans have different tastes, views and opinions on just about everything?

The T-shirt, which reads "Brown is the New White," is offensive, according to Hispanic marketing expert Dr. Ed Rincon. To whom?
