    Prejudice comes in so many forms-religious,***ual,social,racial and what not.Most of us carry our own set of prejudices and dont realise or donot want to realise it.And the results are sometimes centuries of hatred,insensetivity and ugliness which we,knowingly or unknowingly,pass to our next generation.--Brijinder"Sagar"


    Atleast we can try to educate ppl and miht be one in hundred wud agree.. I wudnt stop trying .. if u wish plz pass it on ....





    God Blesses everyone equally!!







    Im 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 Id 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? Dont buy your next shirt or perfume from Tommy
    Hilfiger.
    Lets give him what he 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.

    BOYCOTT. PLEASE SEND THIS MESSAGE TO ANYONE YOU KNOW. FIGHT AGAINST
    RACISM.

    The following scene took place on a BA 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 are taken. I will go to see if another place is available."

    The Hostess went away and then 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
    also no 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. This is a true story.


    Do u know who was this black man it was none other then nelson mandela

    If you are against racism, please send this message to all your
    f riends.

    Please do not delete it without sending it to at least one person
