Abercrombie and affiliate stores bad for minorities

I'm so disgusted with the racial profiling that goes on in their stores. I've always been aware of it, but today it just got to me. I have been shopping a lot these days getting ready for school, so I've been in their stores more than usual in a short period of time. The way they follow African Americans and Hispanic customers is so ridiculous. They don't even do a good job in pretending not to follow you around the store, as if you are a criminal, just because the color of your skin. Today in store as I'm being followed, I became so angry, to think I'm spending my hard earned money in a store that shows no respect to their customers. That these young kids that work for them think it's funny to follow people of color around the store. It really bothers me to think that this is the type of company I'm supporting. I don't  ever want to go onto another one of their stores. I also know a few people who have worked for them and they were told my their managers to follow blacks and Hispanics. Abercrombie bad for minorities.

  1. Oh wow...it's a shame. But, a lot of those "types" of stores do that. It makes no logical sense. It doesn't matter who you are, what color you are, people steal. I wouldn't go back there.
