Clothing Company Strikes Up Controversy With Arabic Dearborn Shirt

Is This Arabic T-Shirt Racist?

A T-shirt design released Wednesday by local clothing company Down with Detroit has stirred up conversation that the design is racist.

The design shows the word "Dearborn" written in Arabic.

Posted on the company's Facebook page Wednesday evening, the photo immediately sparked debate over whether the design is offensive.

"Maybe not racist ... maybe tasteless," wrote fan Dion Pallone. "Not a fan of it."
