New Netflix documentary charts rise and fall of Abercrombie & Fitch

A new Netflix documentary explores Abercrombie & Fitch's (A&F) pop culture reign in the late ’90s and early 2000s and how it thrived on exclusion. Titled 'White Hot: The Rise and Fall of Abercrombie & Fitch', it debuts on Netflix on April 19th. The documentary focuses on the various scandals that have swept the label, starting with the 2004 class-action that accused it of discrimination against blacks, Latinos, Asians and office workers. It also discusses the testimony of a Muslim woman who was denied employment in 2015 due to wearing a headscarf. "They did not invent discrimination and asocial differences, they only bundled them up," said one journalist who was interviewed.
