Lethbridge clothing company accused of racism prompts public backlash


August 21, 2020

CALGARY -- Widespread public backlash is being directed at a Lethbridge-based clothing line that appeared to be sending a message some say is racist.

Online ads included photos of what appears to be white teenagers or young adults — some holding guns — wearing T-shirts, ballcaps and hoodies with the logo 'White and Privileged.'

Anger and disgust was expressed on social media after a Calgary podcaster posted the photos with the caption, “Straight out of Lethbridge. Racism looks like this.”
