Doesn't seem to be too happy about it, IMO

This is coming on the heals of an artist dropped out and a ticketing website threatened to unpublish their event. LINK
Still want "NonPOC" to donate more, too.

They referenced racist comments were the reason for this change...were they not being explicitly racist in their initial pricing?

So what's the real reason they are walking this back?

Bruh. White supremacists have been on a tear lately disrupting all kinds of shite. It's like they're everywhere at once. Almost like they dont exist

Aww, it's for the chirren. Heartwarming isn't it?

Hallelujah, I can go now

I would be willing to bet this absolutely did not happen

Notice how in that statement they didn't apologize at all. Instead they blamed it on threats they received from "white supremacists". Switch the roles and that festival would have been wiped off the face of this earth with a swiftness.

Holy shite.
A separate festival has now booted Tiny Jag from their festival for criticizing the ticket price discrimination.
This shite is outta control.
Rapper Tiny Jag Removed from Detroits Kindred Fest Lineup
What exactly is that? Open Discrimination and racism?

The second annual Kindred Music & Culture Festival announced it was dropping Tiny Jag from its lineup on Twitter. "We respect her choice to step away from an engagement based on her own beliefs," Kindred's statement reads in part. "However, the artist's actions have created negative and dangerous effects on members of our community. This is in direct conflict with the values that Kindred Media & Entertainment was founded on."

It's bizarro world
Who knew the Democrats would be the ones to bring back their old friend Jim Crow?

Love how the organizers of the festival in Detroit said that her speaking out against the different prices for different races caused "negative and dangerous effects" in their community

Probably won't let them in unless the "mandatory donation" is paid

Could you even imagine if we had some kind of "Cracker Fest" where non-crackers had to pay more to enter?

WTH kind of "danger" did this create? I imagine driving through a Detroit project creates more "danger."
