A Form Of ‘Cultural Appropriation’







quote:

Coop les Récoltes, a "solidarity co-op" restaurant, bar, and performance space created by the Public Interest Research Group of the Université du Québec à Montréal recently denied a time slot to a white comedian because of his dreadlocks.


On January 11, the Snowflake Comedy Club (SCC) was to perform a set at Coop les Récoltes.

According to its official website, Snowflake Comedy Club offers "safe" laughs with "no transphobia, misogyny, racism, sexism, homophobia or ... fatshaming." The group is also committed to featuring more female performers than male performers.

When comedian Zach Poitras asked his friend Mathieu Sale (one of Snowflake Comedy Club’s organizers) if he could perform a piece regarding his own gender fluidity during the January 11 set, Sale spoke to the co-op, which came to the conclusion that Poitras wouldn't be allowed to perform because of his hair.

If I had to guess I'd say there are lots of jokes about white people, men, and Christians.

Right. Most jokes are made at someone's expense. It's the nature of comedy.

Especially stupid since the earliest known depictions of dreads are from ancient Greece.
