Activists call shirts 'racist'
Kansan staff writer
By Mike I. Vargas
Tom Howell, member of the Direct Action Movement, said the store sold T-shirts that fostered hatred and promoted stereotypes of Middle Eastern people.
Howell said the store was selling a shirt that pictured a stereotypical Arab on a camel. The shirt states; "I'll go a thousand miles to smoke a camel."
Howell said that when the enemy was dehumanized, it was easier to pull the trigger.
The group contends that the stereotyping of
the Iraqs on the T-shirts carries over to all Mideast
countries.
"When people see an Arab, it doesn't matter if they're Saudi Arabian, Iraqi or Kuwaiti or whatever." he said. "Their first impression is an Arab fundamentalist radical terrorist."
On campus
Howell said the store sold other T-shirts that promoted anti-Arab feelings including one that stated "Hard Luck Cafe; Baghdad under new management; Currently being remodeled."
Wendi Groves, store employee, said that a protester had entered the store on three different occasions.
The movement has requested at various times that these articles be removed from the store, he said.
"We are not making anybody buy them," Groves said. "And if we thought they were racist we wouldn't sell them. More people are glad than mad."
During a Feb. 22 anti-war rally sponsored by Voice, a campus peace organization, someone began to protest the T-shirts and the store, Groves said.
