  2. this is all i can tell you:

    Barnes and Noble had this as their store front display in Coral Gables FL in the Miracle Mile Mall. I am totally disgusted and I think it is important that we all find a different place to buy our books. Obviously this is a place of extreme ignorance. How far have we really come? God bless.

    Please support the boycott and pass this e-mail to family and friends. It is so sad when you have been lied to all your life of who you are supposed to be because of the color of your skin. Some people just can't accept change. Fortunately, change will come with or without you.

    Subject: Racism still exists obviously

    Let us not be lulled into a sense of complacency, due to the recent political success of President Obama.
    Racism still exists in this country. Like all things, nothing is perfect on this planet, in this world.
    We have an obligation to be active on issues that simply cannot be ignored.

    Along these lines we should all actively spread the word of how Barnes and Noble apparently feels about Black people or at least our President.

    Please forward this to as many people you think should be aware of this and would be offended by this.
    Boycotting Barnes and Noble will show the economic effect of people who will not tolerate racism.

  3. What if a customer did it? You know it is possible.

  4. BTW. You might want to dismount that high horse of yours and do some research before calling a boycott. FYI:
